registry

Devfile registry - storing contents of the public community, OCI-based, devfile registry hosted at https://registry.devfile.io.

The public registry is updated weekly, by 12pm EST Wednesdays, with any updated stacks in this repository.

Registry Status

Registry Updates

The staging devfile registry, https://registry.stage.devfile.io is refreshed upon each commit to main in this repository. Production, https://registry.devfile.io, promoted manually and as mentioned above, is done each Wednesday, as needed.

If you are a stack owner and need to request an urgent refresh of https://registry.devfile.io before Wednesday (for example if a stack is broken), please open an issue in the devfile/api repository outlining the following:

• Stack name
• Why the refresh is needed
• Why the refresh cannot wait until the next regularly scheduled refresh
• /area registry somewhere in the issue description, so that the area/registry label gets added.

Developing

Prerequisites

• Docker or Podman
• Git

Build

To build this devfile registry into a container image run bash .ci/build.sh. A container image will be built using the devfile registry build tools. By default these scripts will use docker and be built for the linux/amd64 architecture.

To build using podman first run:

export USE_PODMAN=true

To build for linux/arm64 run:

bash .ci/build.sh linux/arm64

From there, push the container image to a container registry of your choice and deploy using a devfile adopted devtool or one of the methods outlined here.

If you are trying to run bash .ci/build_and_deploy.sh and are experiencing errors while using MacOS with an apple silicon chip, you should first run export PLATFORM_EV=linux/arm64 to properly set the container config. By default the containers will be built for linux/amd64.

Devfile Deployments

Prerequisites

• Docker or Podman
• Git
• Kubernetes or Red Hat OpenShift
• odo v3.15.0+

Deploying

odo V3

The following can build and deploy a devfile registry using odo v3:

odo deploy --var indexImageName=quay.io/<user>/devfile-index --var indexImageTag=<tag>

Important: odo deploy needs these overrides to not push to the default quay.io/devfile/devfile-index:next.

The deployment host name can be set by overriding hostName and hostAlias:

odo deploy --var hostName=devfile-registry.<cluster_hostname> \
    --var hostAlias=devfile-registry.<cluster_hostname> \
    --var indexImageName=quay.io/<user>/devfile-index \
    --var indexImageTag=<tag>

Notes:

• hostName is required for Kubernetes ingresses, OpenShift routes are optional and defaults to <deployment_namespace>.<cluster_hostname>.
• hostAlias sets the leading host name under static links in registry viewer entries, defaults to our staging deployment registry.stage.devfile.io.

Prevent odo v3 deployment built images from being pushed by running:

# Set docker to target minikube's image registry
eval $(minikube docker-env)

ODO_PUSH_IMAGES=false odo deploy \
    --var hostName=devfile-registry.<cluster_hostname> \
    --var hostAlias=devfile-registry.<cluster_hostname> \
    --var indexPullPolicy=Never

Removing Deployments

odo V3

Deployments made with odo v3 can be deleted using:

odo delete component --name devfile-registry-community
