Chapter 1. Creating a repository

To create a repository in the Quay UI, click the + icon in the top right of the header on any Quay page and choose New Repository. Select Container Image Repository on the next page, choose a namespace (only applies to organizations), enter a repository name and then click the Create Repository button. The repository will start out empty unless a Dockerfile is uploaded as well.

First, tag the repository. Here are examples for pushing images to Quay.io or your own Red Hat Quay setup (for example, reg.example.com).

# docker tag 0u123imageid quay.io/namespace/repo_name
# docker tag 0u123imageid reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name

Then push to the appropriate Quay registry. For example:

# docker push quay.io/namespace/repo_name
# docker push reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name
