With the Container Registry integrated into GitLab, every project can have its
own space to store its Docker images.
You can read more about the Container Registry at
<https://docs.docker.com/registry/introduction/>.
## Enable the Container Registry
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
All you have to do is configure the domain name under which the Container
Registry will listen to. Read
[#container-registry-domain-configuration](#container-registry-domain-configuration)
and pick one of the two options that fits your case.
>**Note:**
The container registry works under HTTPS by default. Using HTTP is possible
but not recommended and out of the scope of this document.
Read the [insecure Registry documentation][docker-insecure] if you want to
implement this.
**Installations from source**
If you have installed GitLab from source:
1. You will have to [install Registry][registry-deploy] by yourself.
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the Registry's
settings in `gitlab.yml` in order to enable it.
1. Use the sample NGINX configuration file that is found under
[`lib/support/nginx/registry-ssl`][registry-ssl] and edit it to match the
`host`, `port` and TLS certs paths.
The contents of `gitlab.yml` are:
```
registry:
enabled: true
host: registry.gitlab.example.com
port: 5005
api_url: http://localhost:5000/
key: config/registry.key
path: shared/registry
issuer: gitlab-issuer
```
where:
| Parameter | Description |
| --------- | ----------- |
| `enabled` | `true` or `false`. Enables the Registry in GitLab. By default this is `false`. |
| `host` | The host URL under which the Registry will run and the users will be able to use. |
| `port` | The port under which the external Registry domain will listen on. |
| `api_url` | The internal API URL under which the Registry is exposed to. It defaults to `http://localhost:5000`. |
| `key` | The private key location that is a pair of Registry's `rootcertbundle`. Read the [token auth configuration documentation][token-config]. |
| `path` | This should be the same directory like specified in Registry's `rootdirectory`. Read the [storage configuration documentation][storage-config]. This path needs to be readable by the GitLab user, the web-server user and the Registry user. Read more in [#container-registry-storage-path](#container-registry-storage-path). |
| `issuer` | This should be the same value as configured in Registry's `issuer`. Read the [token auth configuration documentation][token-config]. |
>**Note:**
A Registry init file is not shipped with GitLab if you install it from source.
Hence, [restarting GitLab][restart gitlab] will not restart the Registry should
you modify its settings. Read the upstream documentation on how to achieve that.
At the **absolute** minimum, make sure your [Registry configuration][registry-auth]
has `container_registry` as the service and `https://gitlab.example.com/jwt/auth`
as the realm:
```
auth:
token:
realm: https://gitlab.example.com/jwt/auth
service: container_registry
issuer: gitlab-issuer
rootcertbundle: /root/certs/certbundle
```
CAUTION: **Caution:**
If `auth` is not set up, users will be able to pull docker images without authentication.
## Container Registry domain configuration
There are two ways you can configure the Registry's external domain.
- Either [use the existing GitLab domain][existing-domain] where in that case
the Registry will have to listen on a port and reuse GitLab's TLS certificate,
- or [use a completely separate domain][new-domain] with a new TLS certificate
for that domain.
Since the container Registry requires a TLS certificate, in the end it all boils
down to how easy or pricey is to get a new one.
Please take this into consideration before configuring the Container Registry
for the first time.
### Configure Container Registry under an existing GitLab domain
If the Registry is configured to use the existing GitLab domain, you can
expose the Registry on a port so that you can reuse the existing GitLab TLS
certificate.
Assuming that the GitLab domain is `https://gitlab.example.com` and the port the
Registry is exposed to the outside world is `4567`, here is what you need to set
in `gitlab.rb` or `gitlab.yml` if you are using Omnibus GitLab or installed
GitLab from source respectively.
>**Note:**
Be careful to choose a port different than the one that Registry listens to (`5000` by default),
otherwise you will run into conflicts.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Your `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` should contain the Registry URL as well as the
path to the existing TLS certificate and key used by GitLab:
```ruby
registry_external_url 'https://gitlab.example.com:4567'
```
Note how the `registry_external_url` is listening on HTTPS under the
existing GitLab URL, but on a different port.
If your TLS certificate is not in `/etc/gitlab/ssl/gitlab.example.com.crt`
and key not in `/etc/gitlab/ssl/gitlab.example.com.key` uncomment the lines
below:
```ruby
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate'] = "/path/to/certificate.pem"
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate_key'] = "/path/to/certificate.key"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
1. Validate using:
```sh
openssl s_client -showcerts -servername gitlab.example.com -connect gitlab.example.com:443 > cacert.pem
```
NOTE: **Note:**
If your certificate provider provides the CA Bundle certificates, append them to the TLS certificate file.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
configure it with the following settings:
```
registry:
enabled: true
host: gitlab.example.com
port: 4567
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
1. Make the relevant changes in NGINX as well (domain, port, TLS certificates path).
Users should now be able to login to the Container Registry with their GitLab
credentials using:
```bash
docker login gitlab.example.com:4567
```
### Configure Container Registry under its own domain
If the Registry is configured to use its own domain, you will need a TLS
certificate for that specific domain (e.g., `registry.example.com`) or maybe
a wildcard certificate if hosted under a subdomain of your existing GitLab
domain (e.g., `registry.gitlab.example.com`).
NOTE: **Note:**
As well as manually generated SSL certificates (explained here), certificates automatically
generated by Let's Encrypt are also [supported in Omnibus installs](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/ssl.html#host-services).
Let's assume that you want the container Registry to be accessible at
`https://registry.gitlab.example.com`.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Place your TLS certificate and key in
`/etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.crt` and
`/etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.key` and make sure they have
correct permissions:
```bash
chmod 600 /etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.*
```
1. Once the TLS certificate is in place, edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` with:
```ruby
registry_external_url 'https://registry.gitlab.example.com'
```
Note how the `registry_external_url` is listening on HTTPS.
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
> **Note:**
If you have a [wildcard certificate][], you need to specify the path to the
certificate in addition to the URL, in this case `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` will
look like:
>
> ```ruby
> registry_nginx['ssl_certificate'] = "/etc/gitlab/ssl/certificate.pem"
> registry_nginx['ssl_certificate_key'] = "/etc/gitlab/ssl/certificate.key"
> ```
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
configure it with the following settings:
```yaml
registry:
enabled: true
host: registry.gitlab.example.com
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
1. Make the relevant changes in NGINX as well (domain, port, TLS certificates path).
Users should now be able to login to the Container Registry using their GitLab
credentials:
```bash
docker login registry.gitlab.example.com
```
## Disable Container Registry site-wide
>**Note:**
Disabling the Registry in the Rails GitLab application as set by the following
steps, will not remove any existing Docker images. This is handled by the
Registry application itself.
**Omnibus GitLab**
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set `registry['enable']` to `false`:
```ruby
registry['enable'] = false
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
set `enabled` to `false`:
```yaml
registry:
enabled: false
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
## Disable Container Registry for new projects site-wide
If the Container Registry is enabled, then it will be available on all new
projects. To disable this function and let the owners of a project to enable
the Container Registry by themselves, follow the steps below.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_projects_features_container_registry'] = false
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `default_projects_features`
entry and configure it so that `container_registry` is set to `false`:
```yaml
## Default project features settings
default_projects_features:
issues: true
merge_requests: true
wiki: true
snippets: false
builds: true
container_registry: false
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
## Container Registry storage path
>**Note:**
For configuring storage in the cloud instead of the filesystem, see the
[storage driver configuration](#container-registry-storage-driver).
If you want to store your images on the filesystem, you can change the storage
path for the Container Registry, follow the steps below.
This path is accessible to:
- the user running the Container Registry daemon,
- the user running GitLab
> **Warning** You should confirm that all GitLab, Registry and web server users
have access to this directory.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
The default location where images are stored in Omnibus, is
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry`. To change it:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_path'] = "/path/to/registry/storage"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
The default location where images are stored in source installations, is
`/home/git/gitlab/shared/registry`. To change it:
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
change the `path` setting:
```yaml
registry:
path: shared/registry
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
## Container Registry storage driver
You can configure the Container Registry to use a different storage backend by
configuring a different storage driver. By default the GitLab Container Registry
is configured to use the filesystem driver, which makes use of [storage path](#container-registry-storage-path)
configuration.
NOTE: **Note:** Enabling a storage driver other than `filesystem` would mean
that your Docker client needs to be able to access the storage backend directly.
In that case, you must use an address that resolves and is accessible outside GitLab server.
The different supported drivers are:
| Driver | Description |
|------------|-------------------------------------|
| filesystem | Uses a path on the local filesystem |
| azure | Microsoft Azure Blob Storage |
| gcs | Google Cloud Storage |
| s3 | Amazon Simple Storage Service. Be sure to configure your storage bucket with the correct [S3 Permission Scopes](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/#s3-permission-scopes). |
| swift | OpenStack Swift Object Storage |
| oss | Aliyun OSS |
Read more about the individual driver's config options in the
[Docker Registry docs][storage-config].
CAUTION: **Warning:** GitLab will not backup Docker images that are not stored on the
filesystem. Remember to enable backups with your object storage provider if
desired.
NOTE: **Note:**
`regionendpoint` is only required when configuring an S3 compatible service such as Minio. It takes a URL such as `http://127.0.0.1:9000`.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
To configure the `s3` storage driver in Omnibus:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
's3' => {
'accesskey' => 's3-access-key',
'secretkey' => 's3-secret-key-for-access-key',
'bucket' => 'your-s3-bucket',
'region' => 'your-s3-region',
'regionendpoint' => 'your-s3-regionendpoint'
}
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
Configuring the storage driver is done in your registry config YML file created
when you [deployed your docker registry][registry-deploy].
`s3` storage driver example:
```yml
storage:
s3:
accesskey: 'AKIAKIAKI'
secretkey: 'secret123'
bucket: 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI'
region: 'your-s3-region'
regionendpoint: 'your-s3-regionendpoint'
cache:
blobdescriptor: inmemory
delete:
enabled: true
```
## Change the registry's internal port
> **Note:**
This is not to be confused with the port that GitLab itself uses to expose
the Registry to the world.
The Registry server listens on localhost at port `5000` by default,
which is the address for which the Registry server should accept connections.
In the examples below we set the Registry's port to `5001`.
**Omnibus GitLab**
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set `registry['registry_http_addr']`:
```ruby
registry['registry_http_addr'] = "localhost:5001"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open the configuration file of your Registry server and edit the
[`http:addr`][registry-http-config] value:
```yaml
http
addr: localhost:5001
```
1. Save the file and restart the Registry server.
## Disable Container Registry per project
If Registry is enabled in your GitLab instance, but you don't need it for your
project, you can disable it from your project's settings. Read the user guide
on how to achieve that.
## Disable Container Registry but use GitLab as an auth endpoint
**Omnibus GitLab**
You can use GitLab as an auth endpoint and use a non-bundled Container Registry.
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set necessary configurations:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['registry_host'] = "registry.gitlab.example.com"
gitlab_rails['registry_port'] = "5005"
gitlab_rails['registry_api_url'] = "http://localhost:5000"
gitlab_rails['registry_path'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry"
gitlab_rails['registry_issuer'] = "omnibus-gitlab-issuer"
```
1. A certificate keypair is required for GitLab and the Container Registry to
communicate securely. By default Omnibus GitLab will generate one keypair,
which is saved to `/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/etc/gitlab-registry.key`.
When using a non-bundled Container Registry, you will need to supply a
custom certificate key. To do that, add the following to
`/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_key_path'] = "/custom/path/to/registry-key.key"
# registry['internal_key'] should contain the contents of the custom key
# file. Line breaks in the key file should be marked using `\n` character
# Example:
registry['internal_key'] = "---BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY---\nMIIEpQIBAA\n"
```
**Note:** The file specified at `registry_key_path` gets populated with the
content specified by `internal_key`, each time reconfigure is executed. If
no file is specified, Omnibus GitLab will default it to
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/etc/gitlab-registry.key` and will populate
it.
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, and edit the configuration settings under `registry`:
```yaml
## Container Registry
registry:
enabled: true
host: "registry.gitlab.example.com"
port: "5005"
api_url: "http://localhost:5000"
path: /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry
key: /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/certificate.key
issuer: omnibus-gitlab-issuer
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
## Storage limitations
Currently, there is no storage limitation, which means a user can upload an
infinite amount of Docker images with arbitrary sizes. This setting will be
configurable in future releases.
## Configure Container Registry notifications
You can configure the Container Registry to send webhook notifications in
response to events happening within the registry.
Read more about the Container Registry notifications config options in the
[Docker Registry notifications documentation][notifications-config].
>**Note:**
Multiple endpoints can be configured for the Container Registry.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
To configure a notification endpoint in Omnibus:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['notifications'] = [
{
'name' => 'test_endpoint',
'url' => 'https://gitlab.example.com/notify',
'timeout' => '500ms',
'threshold' => 5,
'backoff' => '1s',
'headers' => {
"Authorization" => ["AUTHORIZATION_EXAMPLE_TOKEN"]
}
}
]
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
Configuring the notification endpoint is done in your registry config YML file created
when you [deployed your docker registry][registry-deploy].
Example:
```
notifications:
endpoints:
- name: alistener
disabled: false
url: https://my.listener.com/event
headers: <http.Header>
timeout: 500
threshold: 5
backoff: 1000
```
## Troubleshooting
### Using self-signed certificates with Container Registry
If you're using a self-signed certificate with your Container Registry, you
might encounter issues during the CI jobs like the following:
```
Error response from daemon: Get registry.example.com/v1/users/: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
```
The Docker daemon running the command expects a cert signed by a recognized CA,
thus the error above.
While GitLab doesn't support using self-signed certificates with Container Registry out of the box, it is possible to make it work by [instructing the docker-daemon to trust the self-signed certificates][docker-insecure-self-signed], mounting the docker-daemon and setting `privileged = false` in the runner's `config.toml`. Setting `privileged = true` takes precedence over the docker-daemon.
```
[runners.docker]
image = "ruby:2.1"
privileged = false
volumes = ["/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock", "/cache"]
```
Additional information about this: [issue 18239][ce-18239].
### AWS S3 with the GitLab registry error when pushing large images
When using AWS S3 with the GitLab registry, an error may occur when pushing
large images. Look in the Registry log for the following error:
```
level=error msg="response completed with error" err.code=unknown err.detail="unexpected EOF" err.message="unknown error"
```
To resolve the error specify a `chunksize` value in the Registry configuration.
Start with a value between `25000000` (25MB) and `50000000` (50MB).
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
's3' => {
'accesskey' => 'AKIAKIAKI',
'secretkey' => 'secret123',
'bucket' => 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI',
'chunksize' => 25000000
}
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit `config/gitlab.yml`:
```yaml
storage:
s3:
accesskey: 'AKIAKIAKI'
secretkey: 'secret123'
bucket: 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI'
chunksize: 25000000
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
### Supporting older Docker clients
As of GitLab 11.9, we began shipping version 2.7.1 of the Docker container registry, which disables the schema1 manifest by default. If you are still using older Docker clients (1.9 or older), you may experience an error pushing images. See [omnibus-4145](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/4145) for more details.
You can add a configuration option for backwards compatibility.
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['compatibility_schema1_enabled'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit the YML configuration file you created when you [deployed the registry][registry-deploy]. Add the following snippet:
```yaml
compatibility:
schema1:
enabled: true
```
1. Restart the registry for the changes to take affect.
### Docker connection error
A Docker connection error can occur when there are special characters in either the group,
project or branch name. Special characters can include:
- Leading underscore
- Trailing hyphen/dash
- Double hyphen/dash
To get around this, you can [change the group path](../user/group/index.md#changing-a-groups-path),
[change the project path](../user/project/settings/index.md#renaming-a-repository) or change the
branch name. Another option is to create a [push rule](../push_rules/push_rules.html) to prevent
this at the instance level.
### Image push errors
When getting errors or "retrying" loops in an attempt to push an image but `docker login` works fine,
there is likely an issue with the headers forwarded to the registry by NGINX. The default recommended
NGINX configurations should handle this, but it might occur in custom setups where the SSL is
offloaded to a third party reverse proxy.
This problem was discussed in a [docker project issue][docker-image-push-issue] and a simple solution
would be to enable relative urls in the registry.
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['env'] = {
"REGISTRY_HTTP_RELATIVEURLS" => true
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit the YML configuration file you created when you [deployed the registry][registry-deploy]. Add the following snippet:
```yaml
http:
relativeurls: true
```
1. Restart the registry for the changes to take affect.

# GitLab Dependency Proxy administration **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
---
redirect_to: 'packages/dependency_proxy.md'
---
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.11.
GitLab can be utilized as a dependency proxy for a variety of common package managers.
This is the administration documentation. If you want to learn how to use the
dependency proxies, see the [user guide](../user/group/dependency_proxy/index.md).
## Enabling the Dependency Proxy feature
NOTE: **Note:**
Dependency proxy requires the Puma web server to be enabled.
Puma support is EXPERIMENTAL at this time.
To enable the Dependency proxy feature:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby

```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
1. Enable the [Puma web server](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/puma.html).
**Installations from source**
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the `dependency_proxy`
section in `config/gitlab.yml`. Set to `true` to enable it:
```yaml
dependency_proxy:
enabled: true
```
1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect.
1. Enable the [Puma web server](../install/installation.md#using-puma).
## Changing the storage path
By default, the dependency proxy files are stored locally, but you can change the default
local location or even use object storage.
### Changing the local storage path
The dependency proxy files for Omnibus GitLab installations are stored under
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/dependency_proxy/` and for source
installations under `shared/dependency_proxy/` (relative to the Git home directory).
To change the local storage path:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_storage_path'] = "/mnt/dependency_proxy"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Edit the `dependency_proxy` section in `config/gitlab.yml`:
```yaml
dependency_proxy:
enabled: true
storage_path: shared/dependency_proxy
```
1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect.
### Using object storage
Instead of relying on the local storage, you can use an object storage to
upload the blobs of the dependency proxy:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following lines (uncomment where
necessary):
```ruby

# GitLab Packages administration **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
---
redirect_to: 'packages/index.md'
---
GitLab Packages allows organizations to utilize GitLab as a private repository
for a variety of common package managers. Users are able to build and publish
packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.
The Packages feature allows GitLab to act as a repository for the following:
| Software repository | Description | Available in GitLab version |
| ------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------- |
| [Maven Repository](../user/project/packages/maven_repository.md) | The GitLab Maven Repository enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) packages. | 11.3+ |
| [NPM Registry](../user/project/packages/npm_registry.md) | The GitLab NPM Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) packages. | 11.7+ |
Don't you see your package management system supported yet?
Please consider contributing
to GitLab. This [development documentation](../development/packages.md) will guide you through the process.
## Enabling the Packages feature
NOTE: **Note:**
After the Packages feature is enabled, the repositories are available
for all new projects by default. To enable it for existing projects, users will
have to explicitly do so in the project's settings.
To enable the Packages feature:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['packages_enabled'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the `packages`
section in `config/gitlab.yml`. Set to `true` to enable it:
```yaml
packages:
enabled: true
```
1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect.
## Changing the storage path
By default, the packages are stored locally, but you can change the default
local location or even use object storage.
### Changing the local storage path
The packages for Omnibus GitLab installations are stored under
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/packages/` and for source
installations under `shared/packages/` (relative to the Git homedir).
To change the local storage path:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['packages_storage_path'] = "/mnt/packages"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect.

1. Edit the `packages` section in `config/gitlab.yml`:
```yaml
packages:
enabled: true
storage_path: shared/packages
```
1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect.
### Using object storage
Instead of relying on the local storage, you can use an object storage to
upload packages:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**

### Migrating local packages to object storage
After [configuring the object storage](#using-object-storage), you may use the
following task to migrate existing packages from the local storage to the remote one.
The processing will be done in a background worker and requires **no downtime**.
For Omnibus GitLab:
```sh
sudo gitlab-rake "gitlab:packages:migrate"
```
For installations from source:
```bash
RAILS_ENV=production sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:packages:migrate
```

# GitLab Container Registry administration
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/4040) in GitLab 8.8.
> - Container Registry manifest `v1` support was added in GitLab 8.9 to support
> Docker versions earlier than 1.10.
NOTE: **Note:**
This document is about the admin guide. To learn how to use GitLab Container
Registry [user documentation](../../user/packages/container_registry/index.md).
With the Container Registry integrated into GitLab, every project can have its
own space to store its Docker images.
You can read more about the Docker Registry at
<https://docs.docker.com/registry/introduction/>.
## Enable the Container Registry
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
All you have to do is configure the domain name under which the Container
Registry will listen to. Read
[#container-registry-domain-configuration](#container-registry-domain-configuration)
and pick one of the two options that fits your case.
NOTE: **Note:**
The container registry works under HTTPS by default. Using HTTP is possible
but not recommended and out of the scope of this document.
Read the [insecure Registry documentation](https://docs.docker.com/registry/insecure/)
if you want to implement this.
**Installations from source**
If you have installed GitLab from source:
1. You will have to [install Registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/) by yourself.
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the Registry's
settings in `gitlab.yml` in order to enable it.
1. Use the sample NGINX configuration file that is found under
[`lib/support/nginx/registry-ssl`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/lib/support/nginx/registry-ssl) and edit it to match the
`host`, `port` and TLS certs paths.
The contents of `gitlab.yml` are:
```yaml
registry:
enabled: true
host: registry.gitlab.example.com
port: 5005
api_url: http://localhost:5000/
key: config/registry.key
path: shared/registry
issuer: gitlab-issuer
```
where:
| Parameter | Description |
| --------- | ----------- |
| `enabled` | `true` or `false`. Enables the Registry in GitLab. By default this is `false`. |
| `host` | The host URL under which the Registry will run and the users will be able to use. |
| `port` | The port under which the external Registry domain will listen on. |
| `api_url` | The internal API URL under which the Registry is exposed to. It defaults to `http://localhost:5000`. |
| `key` | The private key location that is a pair of Registry's `rootcertbundle`. Read the [token auth configuration documentation](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#token). |
| `path` | This should be the same directory like specified in Registry's `rootdirectory`. Read the [storage configuration documentation](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#storage). This path needs to be readable by the GitLab user, the web-server user and the Registry user. Read more in [#container-registry-storage-path](#container-registry-storage-path). |
| `issuer` | This should be the same value as configured in Registry's `issuer`. Read the [token auth configuration documentation](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#token). |
NOTE: **Note:**
A Registry init file is not shipped with GitLab if you install it from source.
Hence, [restarting GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) will not restart the Registry should
you modify its settings. Read the upstream documentation on how to achieve that.
At the **absolute** minimum, make sure your [Registry configuration](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#auth)
has `container_registry` as the service and `https://gitlab.example.com/jwt/auth`
as the realm:
```yaml
auth:
token:
realm: https://gitlab.example.com/jwt/auth
service: container_registry
issuer: gitlab-issuer
rootcertbundle: /root/certs/certbundle
```
CAUTION: **Caution:**
If `auth` is not set up, users will be able to pull docker images without authentication.
## Container Registry domain configuration
There are two ways you can configure the Registry's external domain. Either:
- [Use the existing GitLab domain](#configure-container-registry-under-an-existing-gitlab-domain) where in that case
the Registry will have to listen on a port and reuse GitLab's TLS certificate,
- [Use a completely separate domain](#configure-container-registry-under-its-own-domain) with a new TLS certificate
for that domain.
Since the container Registry requires a TLS certificate, in the end it all boils
down to how easy or pricey is to get a new one.
Please take this into consideration before configuring the Container Registry
for the first time.
### Configure Container Registry under an existing GitLab domain
If the Registry is configured to use the existing GitLab domain, you can
expose the Registry on a port so that you can reuse the existing GitLab TLS
certificate.
Assuming that the GitLab domain is `https://gitlab.example.com` and the port the
Registry is exposed to the outside world is `4567`, here is what you need to set
in `gitlab.rb` or `gitlab.yml` if you are using Omnibus GitLab or installed
GitLab from source respectively.
NOTE: **Note:**
Be careful to choose a port different than the one that Registry listens to (`5000` by default),
otherwise you will run into conflicts.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Your `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` should contain the Registry URL as well as the
path to the existing TLS certificate and key used by GitLab:
```ruby
registry_external_url 'https://gitlab.example.com:4567'
```
Note how the `registry_external_url` is listening on HTTPS under the
existing GitLab URL, but on a different port.
If your TLS certificate is not in `/etc/gitlab/ssl/gitlab.example.com.crt`
and key not in `/etc/gitlab/ssl/gitlab.example.com.key` uncomment the lines
below:
```ruby
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate'] = "/path/to/certificate.pem"
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate_key'] = "/path/to/certificate.key"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure)
for the changes to take effect.
1. Validate using:
```sh
openssl s_client -showcerts -servername gitlab.example.com -connect gitlab.example.com:443 > cacert.pem
```
NOTE: **Note:**
If your certificate provider provides the CA Bundle certificates, append them to the TLS certificate file.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
configure it with the following settings:
```
registry:
enabled: true
host: gitlab.example.com
port: 4567
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
1. Make the relevant changes in NGINX as well (domain, port, TLS certificates path).
Users should now be able to login to the Container Registry with their GitLab
credentials using:
```bash
docker login gitlab.example.com:4567
```
### Configure Container Registry under its own domain
If the Registry is configured to use its own domain, you will need a TLS
certificate for that specific domain (e.g., `registry.example.com`) or maybe
a wildcard certificate if hosted under a subdomain of your existing GitLab
domain (e.g., `registry.gitlab.example.com`).
NOTE: **Note:**
As well as manually generated SSL certificates (explained here), certificates automatically
generated by Let's Encrypt are also [supported in Omnibus installs](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/ssl.html#host-services).
Let's assume that you want the container Registry to be accessible at
`https://registry.gitlab.example.com`.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Place your TLS certificate and key in
`/etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.crt` and
`/etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.key` and make sure they have
correct permissions:
```bash
chmod 600 /etc/gitlab/ssl/registry.gitlab.example.com.*
```
1. Once the TLS certificate is in place, edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` with:
```ruby
registry_external_url 'https://registry.gitlab.example.com'
```
Note how the `registry_external_url` is listening on HTTPS.
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
If you have a [wildcard certificate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_certificate), you need to specify the path to the
certificate in addition to the URL, in this case `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` will
look like:
```ruby
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate'] = "/etc/gitlab/ssl/certificate.pem"
registry_nginx['ssl_certificate_key'] = "/etc/gitlab/ssl/certificate.key"
```
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
configure it with the following settings:
```yaml
registry:
enabled: true
host: registry.gitlab.example.com
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
1. Make the relevant changes in NGINX as well (domain, port, TLS certificates path).
Users should now be able to login to the Container Registry using their GitLab
credentials:
```bash
docker login registry.gitlab.example.com
```
## Disable Container Registry site-wide
NOTE: **Note:**
Disabling the Registry in the Rails GitLab application as set by the following
steps, will not remove any existing Docker images. This is handled by the
Registry application itself.
**Omnibus GitLab**
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set `registry['enable']` to `false`:
```ruby
registry['enable'] = false
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
set `enabled` to `false`:
```yaml
registry:
enabled: false
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
## Disable Container Registry for new projects site-wide
If the Container Registry is enabled, then it will be available on all new
projects. To disable this function and let the owners of a project to enable
the Container Registry by themselves, follow the steps below.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_projects_features_container_registry'] = false
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `default_projects_features`
entry and configure it so that `container_registry` is set to `false`:
```yaml
## Default project features settings
default_projects_features:
issues: true
merge_requests: true
wiki: true
snippets: false
builds: true
container_registry: false
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
## Container Registry storage path
NOTE: **Note:**
For configuring storage in the cloud instead of the filesystem, see the
[storage driver configuration](#container-registry-storage-driver).
If you want to store your images on the filesystem, you can change the storage
path for the Container Registry, follow the steps below.
This path is accessible to:
- The user running the Container Registry daemon.
- The user running GitLab.
CAUTION: **Warning** You should confirm that all GitLab, Registry and web server users
have access to this directory.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
The default location where images are stored in Omnibus, is
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry`. To change it:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_path'] = "/path/to/registry/storage"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
The default location where images are stored in source installations, is
`/home/git/gitlab/shared/registry`. To change it:
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, find the `registry` entry and
change the `path` setting:
```yaml
registry:
path: shared/registry
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
## Container Registry storage driver
You can configure the Container Registry to use a different storage backend by
configuring a different storage driver. By default the GitLab Container Registry
is configured to use the filesystem driver, which makes use of [storage path](#container-registry-storage-path)
configuration.
NOTE: **Note:** Enabling a storage driver other than `filesystem` would mean
that your Docker client needs to be able to access the storage backend directly.
In that case, you must use an address that resolves and is accessible outside GitLab server.
The different supported drivers are:
| Driver | Description |
|------------|-------------------------------------|
| filesystem | Uses a path on the local filesystem |
| azure | Microsoft Azure Blob Storage |
| gcs | Google Cloud Storage |
| s3 | Amazon Simple Storage Service. Be sure to configure your storage bucket with the correct [S3 Permission Scopes](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/#s3-permission-scopes). |

| oss | Aliyun OSS |
Read more about the individual driver's config options in the
[Docker Registry docs](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#storage).
CAUTION: **Warning:** GitLab will not backup Docker images that are not stored on the
filesystem. Remember to enable backups with your object storage provider if
desired.
NOTE: **Note:**
`regionendpoint` is only required when configuring an S3 compatible service such as Minio. It takes a URL such as `http://127.0.0.1:9000`.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
To configure the `s3` storage driver in Omnibus:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
's3' => {
'accesskey' => 's3-access-key',
'secretkey' => 's3-secret-key-for-access-key',
'bucket' => 'your-s3-bucket',
'region' => 'your-s3-region',
'regionendpoint' => 'your-s3-regionendpoint'
}
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
Configuring the storage driver is done in your registry config YML file created
when you [deployed your docker registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/).
`s3` storage driver example:
```yml
storage:
s3:
accesskey: 'AKIAKIAKI'
secretkey: 'secret123'
bucket: 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI'
region: 'your-s3-region'
regionendpoint: 'your-s3-regionendpoint'
cache:
blobdescriptor: inmemory
delete:
enabled: true
```
## Change the registry's internal port
NOTE: **Note:**
This is not to be confused with the port that GitLab itself uses to expose
the Registry to the world.
The Registry server listens on localhost at port `5000` by default,
which is the address for which the Registry server should accept connections.
In the examples below we set the Registry's port to `5001`.
**Omnibus GitLab**
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set `registry['registry_http_addr']`:
```ruby
registry['registry_http_addr'] = "localhost:5001"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open the configuration file of your Registry server and edit the
[`http:addr`](https://docs.docker.com/registry/configuration/#http) value:
```yaml
http
addr: localhost:5001
```
1. Save the file and restart the Registry server.
## Disable Container Registry per project
If Registry is enabled in your GitLab instance, but you don't need it for your
project, you can disable it from your project's settings. Read the user guide
on how to achieve that.
## Disable Container Registry but use GitLab as an auth endpoint
**Omnibus GitLab**
You can use GitLab as an auth endpoint and use a non-bundled Container Registry.
1. Open `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set necessary configurations:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['registry_host'] = "registry.gitlab.example.com"
gitlab_rails['registry_port'] = "5005"
gitlab_rails['registry_api_url'] = "http://localhost:5000"
gitlab_rails['registry_path'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry"
gitlab_rails['registry_issuer'] = "omnibus-gitlab-issuer"
```
1. A certificate keypair is required for GitLab and the Container Registry to
communicate securely. By default Omnibus GitLab will generate one keypair,
which is saved to `/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/etc/gitlab-registry.key`.
When using a non-bundled Container Registry, you will need to supply a
custom certificate key. To do that, add the following to
`/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
```ruby
gitlab_rails['registry_key_path'] = "/custom/path/to/registry-key.key"
# registry['internal_key'] should contain the contents of the custom key
# file. Line breaks in the key file should be marked using `\n` character
# Example:
registry['internal_key'] = "---BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY---\nMIIEpQIBAA\n"
```
NOTE: **Note:**
The file specified at `registry_key_path` gets populated with the
content specified by `internal_key`, each time reconfigure is executed. If
no file is specified, Omnibus GitLab will default it to
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/etc/gitlab-registry.key` and will populate
it.
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Open `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`, and edit the configuration settings under `registry`:
```yaml
## Container Registry
registry:
enabled: true
host: "registry.gitlab.example.com"
port: "5005"
api_url: "http://localhost:5000"
path: /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry
key: /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/certificate.key
issuer: omnibus-gitlab-issuer
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
## Storage limitations
Currently, there is no storage limitation, which means a user can upload an
infinite amount of Docker images with arbitrary sizes. This setting will be
configurable in future releases.
## Configure Container Registry notifications
You can configure the Container Registry to send webhook notifications in
response to events happening within the registry.
Read more about the Container Registry notifications config options in the
[Docker Registry notifications documentation](https://docs.docker.com/registry/notifications/).
NOTE: **Note:**
Multiple endpoints can be configured for the Container Registry.
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
To configure a notification endpoint in Omnibus:
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['notifications'] = [
{
'name' => 'test_endpoint',
'url' => 'https://gitlab.example.com/notify',
'timeout' => '500ms',
'threshold' => 5,
'backoff' => '1s',
'headers' => {
"Authorization" => ["AUTHORIZATION_EXAMPLE_TOKEN"]
}
}
]
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
Configuring the notification endpoint is done in your registry config YML file created
when you [deployed your docker registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/).
Example:
```yaml
notifications:
endpoints:
- name: alistener
disabled: false
url: https://my.listener.com/event
headers: <http.Header>
timeout: 500
threshold: 5
backoff: 1000
```
## Troubleshooting
Before diving in to the following sections, here's some basic troubleshooting:
1. Check to make sure that the system clock on your Docker client and GitLab server have
been synchronized (e.g. via NTP).
1. If you are using an S3-backed Registry, double check that the IAM
permissions and the S3 credentials (including region) are correct. See [the
sample IAM policy](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/)
for more details.
1. Check the Registry logs (e.g. `/var/log/gitlab/registry/current`) and the GitLab production logs
for errors (e.g. `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/production.log`). You may be able to find clues
there.
### Using self-signed certificates with Container Registry
If you're using a self-signed certificate with your Container Registry, you
might encounter issues during the CI jobs like the following:
```
Error response from daemon: Get registry.example.com/v1/users/: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
```
The Docker daemon running the command expects a cert signed by a recognized CA,
thus the error above.
While GitLab doesn't support using self-signed certificates with Container
Registry out of the box, it is possible to make it work by
[instructing the docker-daemon to trust the self-signed certificates](https://docs.docker.com/registry/insecure/#use-self-signed-certificates),
mounting the docker-daemon and setting `privileged = false` in the Runner's
`config.toml`. Setting `privileged = true` takes precedence over the docker-daemon:
```toml
[runners.docker]
image = "ruby:2.1"
privileged = false
volumes = ["/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock", "/cache"]
```
Additional information about this: [issue 18239](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/18239).
### AWS S3 with the GitLab registry error when pushing large images
When using AWS S3 with the GitLab registry, an error may occur when pushing
large images. Look in the Registry log for the following error:
```
level=error msg="response completed with error" err.code=unknown err.detail="unexpected EOF" err.message="unknown error"
```
To resolve the error specify a `chunksize` value in the Registry configuration.
Start with a value between `25000000` (25MB) and `50000000` (50MB).
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
's3' => {
'accesskey' => 'AKIAKIAKI',
'secretkey' => 'secret123',
'bucket' => 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI',
'chunksize' => 25000000
}
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit `config/gitlab.yml`:
```yaml
storage:
s3:
accesskey: 'AKIAKIAKI'
secretkey: 'secret123'
bucket: 'gitlab-registry-bucket-AKIAKIAKI'
chunksize: 25000000
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
### Supporting older Docker clients
As of GitLab 11.9, we began shipping version 2.7.1 of the Docker container registry, which disables the schema1 manifest by default. If you are still using older Docker clients (1.9 or older), you may experience an error pushing images. See [omnibus-4145](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/4145) for more details.
You can add a configuration option for backwards compatibility.
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['compatibility_schema1_enabled'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit the YML configuration file you created when you [deployed the registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/). Add the following snippet:
```yaml
compatibility:
schema1:
enabled: true
```
1. Restart the registry for the changes to take affect.
### Docker connection error
A Docker connection error can occur when there are special characters in either the group,
project or branch name. Special characters can include:
- Leading underscore
- Trailing hyphen/dash
- Double hyphen/dash
To get around this, you can [change the group path](../../user/group/index.md#changing-a-groups-path),
[change the project path](../../user/project/settings/index.md#renaming-a-repository) or change the
branch name. Another option is to create a [push rule](../../push_rules/push_rules.html) to prevent
this at the instance level.
### Image push errors
When getting errors or "retrying" loops in an attempt to push an image but `docker login` works fine,
there is likely an issue with the headers forwarded to the registry by NGINX. The default recommended
NGINX configurations should handle this, but it might occur in custom setups where the SSL is
offloaded to a third party reverse proxy.
This problem was discussed in a [docker project issue](https://github.com/docker/distribution/issues/970)
and a simple solution would be to enable relative URLs in the Registry.
**For Omnibus installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
registry['env'] = {
"REGISTRY_HTTP_RELATIVEURLS" => true
}
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
**For installations from source**
1. Edit the YML configuration file you created when you [deployed the registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/). Add the following snippet:
```yaml
http:
relativeurls: true
```
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
### Enable the Registry debug server
The optional debug server can be enabled by setting the registry debug address
in your `gitlab.rb` configuration.
```ruby
registry['debug_addr'] = "localhost:5001"
```
After adding the setting, [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) to apply the change.
Use curl to request debug output from the debug server:
```bash
curl localhost:5001/debug/health
curl localhost:5001/debug/vars
```
### Advanced Troubleshooting
NOTE: **Note:**
The following section is only recommended for experts.
Sometimes it's not obvious what is wrong, and you may need to dive deeper into
the communication between the Docker client and the Registry to find out
what's wrong. We will use a concrete example in the past to illustrate how to
diagnose a problem with the S3 setup.
#### Unexpected 403 error during push
A user attempted to enable an S3-backed Registry. The `docker login` step went
fine. However, when pushing an image, the output showed:
```text
The push refers to a repository [s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567/root/docker-test/docker-image]
dc5e59c14160: Pushing [==================================================>] 14.85 kB
03c20c1a019a: Pushing [==================================================>] 2.048 kB
a08f14ef632e: Pushing [==================================================>] 2.048 kB
228950524c88: Pushing 2.048 kB
6a8ecde4cc03: Pushing [==> ] 9.901 MB/205.7 MB
5f70bf18a086: Pushing 1.024 kB
737f40e80b7f: Waiting

19429b698a22: Waiting
9436069b92a3: Waiting
error parsing HTTP 403 response body: unexpected end of JSON input: ""
```
This error is ambiguous, as it's not clear whether the 403 is coming from the
GitLab Rails application, the Docker Registry, or something else. In this
case, since we know that since the login succeeded, we probably need to look
at the communication between the client and the Registry.
The REST API between the Docker client and Registry is [described
here](https://docs.docker.com/registry/spec/api/). Normally, one would just
use Wireshark or tcpdump to capture the traffic and see where things went
wrong. However, since all communications between Docker clients and servers
are done over HTTPS, it's a bit difficult to decrypt the traffic quickly even
if you know the private key. What can we do instead?
One way would be to disable HTTPS by setting up an [insecure
Registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/insecure/). This could introduce a
security hole and is only recommended for local testing. If you have a
production system and can't or don't want to do this, there is another way:
use mitmproxy, which stands for Man-in-the-Middle Proxy.
#### mitmproxy
[mitmproxy](https://mitmproxy.org/) allows you to place a proxy between your
client and server to inspect all traffic. One wrinkle is that your system
needs to trust the mitmproxy SSL certificates for this to work.
The following installation instructions assume you are running Ubuntu:
1. [Install mitmproxy](https://docs.mitmproxy.org/stable/overview-installation/).
1. Run `mitmproxy --port 9000` to generate its certificates.
Enter <kbd>CTRL</kbd>-<kbd>C</kbd> to quit.
1. Install the certificate from `~/.mitmproxy` to your system:
```sh
sudo cp ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/mitmproxy-ca-cert.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
If successful, the output should indicate that a certificate was added:
```sh
Updating certificates in /etc/ssl/certs... 1 added, 0 removed; done.
Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d....done.
```
To verify that the certificates are properly installed, run:
```sh
mitmproxy --port 9000
```
This will run mitmproxy on port `9000`. In another window, run:
```sh
curl --proxy http://localhost:9000 https://httpbin.org/status/200
```
If everything is set up correctly, you will see information on the mitmproxy window and
no errors from the curl commands.
#### Running the Docker daemon with a proxy
For Docker to connect through a proxy, you must start the Docker daemon with the
proper environment variables. The easiest way is to shutdown Docker (e.g. `sudo initctl stop docker`)
and then run Docker by hand. As root, run:
```sh
export HTTP_PROXY="http://localhost:9000"
export HTTPS_PROXY="https://localhost:9000"
docker daemon --debug
```
This will launch the Docker daemon and proxy all connections through mitmproxy.
#### Running the Docker client
Now that we have mitmproxy and Docker running, we can attempt to login and push
a container image. You may need to run as root to do this. For example:
```sh
docker login s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567
docker push s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567/root/docker-test/docker-image
```
In the example above, we see the following trace on the mitmproxy window:
![mitmproxy output from Docker](img/mitmproxy-docker.png)
The above image shows:
- The initial PUT requests went through fine with a 201 status code.
- The 201 redirected the client to the S3 bucket.
- The HEAD request to the AWS bucket reported a 403 Unauthorized.
What does this mean? This strongly suggests that the S3 user does not have the right
[permissions to perform a HEAD request](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/RESTObjectHEAD.html).
The solution: check the [IAM permissions again](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/).
Once the right permissions were set, the error will go away.
# GitLab Dependency Proxy administration **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.11.
GitLab can be utilized as a dependency proxy for a variety of common package managers.
This is the administration documentation. If you want to learn how to use the
dependency proxies, see the [user guide](../../user/group/dependency_proxy/index.md).
## Enabling the Dependency Proxy feature
NOTE: **Note:**
Dependency proxy requires the Puma web server to be enabled.
Puma support is EXPERIMENTAL at this time.
To enable the Dependency proxy feature:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_enabled'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure "How to reconfigure Omnibus GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
1. Enable the [Puma web server](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/puma.html).
**Installations from source**
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the `dependency_proxy`
section in `config/gitlab.yml`. Set to `true` to enable it:
```yaml
dependency_proxy:
enabled: true
```
1. [Restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source "How to restart GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
1. Enable the [Puma web server](../../install/installation.md#using-puma).
## Changing the storage path
By default, the dependency proxy files are stored locally, but you can change the default
local location or even use object storage.
### Changing the local storage path
The dependency proxy files for Omnibus GitLab installations are stored under
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/dependency_proxy/` and for source
installations under `shared/dependency_proxy/` (relative to the Git home directory).
To change the local storage path:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_storage_path'] = "/mnt/dependency_proxy"
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure "How to reconfigure Omnibus GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. Edit the `dependency_proxy` section in `config/gitlab.yml`:
```yaml
dependency_proxy:
enabled: true
storage_path: shared/dependency_proxy
```
1. [Restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source "How to restart GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
### Using object storage
Instead of relying on the local storage, you can use an object storage to
upload the blobs of the dependency proxy:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following lines (uncomment where
necessary):
```ruby
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_storage_path'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/dependency_proxy"
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_object_store_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_object_store_remote_directory'] = "dependency_proxy" # The bucket name.
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_object_store_direct_upload'] = false # Use Object Storage directly for uploads instead of background uploads if enabled (Default: false).
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_object_store_background_upload'] = true # Temporary option to limit automatic upload (Default: true).
gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_object_store_proxy_download'] = false # Passthrough all downloads via GitLab instead of using Redirects to Object Storage.

1. [Restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source "How to restart GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
# GitLab Package Registry administration **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
GitLab Packages allows organizations to utilize GitLab as a private repository
for a variety of common package managers. Users are able to build and publish
packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.
The Packages feature allows GitLab to act as a repository for the following:
| Software repository | Description | Available in GitLab version |
| ------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------- |
| [Maven Repository](../../user/packages/maven_repository/index.md) | The GitLab Maven Repository enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) packages. | 11.3+ |
| [NPM Registry](../../user/packages/npm_registry/index.md) | The GitLab NPM Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) packages. | 11.7+ |
Don't you see your package management system supported yet?
Please consider contributing
to GitLab. This [development documentation](../../development/packages.md) will guide you through the process.
## Enabling the Packages feature
NOTE: **Note:**
After the Packages feature is enabled, the repositories are available
for all new projects by default. To enable it for existing projects, users will
have to explicitly do so in the project's settings.
To enable the Packages feature:
**Omnibus GitLab installations**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['packages_enabled'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure "How to reconfigure Omnibus GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
**Installations from source**
1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the `packages`
section in `config/gitlab.yml`. Set to `true` to enable it:
```yaml
packages:
enabled: true
```
1. [Restart GitLab](../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure "How to reconfigure Omnibus GitLab") for the changes to take effect.
## Changing the storage path
By default, the packages are stored locally, but you can change the default
local location or even use object storage.
### Changing the local storage path
The packages for Omnibus GitLab installations are stored under
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/packages/` and for source
installations under `shared/packages/` (relative to the Git homedir).

### Migrating local packages to object storage
After [configuring the object storage](#using-object-storage), you may use the
following task to migrate existing packages from the local storage to the remote one.
The processing will be done in a background worker and requires **no downtime**.
For Omnibus GitLab:
```sh
sudo gitlab-rake "gitlab:packages:migrate"
```
For installations from source:
```bash
RAILS_ENV=production sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:packages:migrate

# Dependency Proxy **(PREMIUM)**

---
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.11.
NOTE: **Note:**
This is the user guide. In order to use the dependency proxy, an administrator
must first [configure it](../../../administration/dependency_proxy.md).
For many organizations, it is desirable to have a local proxy for frequently used
upstream images/packages. In the case of CI/CD, the proxy is responsible for
receiving a request and returning the upstream image from a registry, acting
as a pull-through cache.
The dependency proxy is available in the group level. To access it, navigate to
a group's **Overview > Dependency Proxy**.
![Dependency Proxy group page](img/group_dependency_proxy.png)
## Supported dependency proxies
NOTE: **Note:**
For a list of the upcoming additions to the proxies, visit the
[direction page](https://about.gitlab.com/direction/package/dependency_proxy/#top-vision-items).
The following dependency proxies are supported.
| Dependency proxy | GitLab version |
| ---------------- | -------------- |
| Docker | 11.11+ |
## Using the Docker dependency proxy
With the Docker dependency proxy, you can use GitLab as a source for a Docker image.
To get a Docker image into the dependency proxy:
1. Find the proxy URL on your group's page under **Overview > Dependency Proxy**,
for example `gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers`.
1. Trigger GitLab to pull the Docker image you want (e.g., `alpine:latest` or
`linuxserver/nextcloud:latest`) and store it in the proxy storage by using
one of the following ways:
- Manually pulling the Docker image:
```bash
docker pull gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
- From a `Dockerfile`:
```bash
FROM gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
- In [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#image):
```bash
image: gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
GitLab will then pull the Docker image from Docker Hub and will cache the blobs
on the GitLab server. The next time you pull the same image, it will get the latest
information about the image from Docker Hub but will serve the existing blobs
from GitLab.
The blobs are kept forever, and there is no hard limit on how much data can be
stored.
## Limitations
The following limitations apply:
- Only public groups are supported (authentication is not supported yet).
- Only Docker Hub is supported.
- This feature requires Docker Hub being available.

> - Multiple level image names support was added in GitLab 9.1.
NOTE: **Note:**
This document is the user guide. To learn how to enable GitLab Container
Registry across your GitLab instance, visit the
[administrator documentation](../../../administration/packages/container_registry.md).
With the Docker Container Registry integrated into GitLab, every project can
have its own space to store its Docker images.
You can read more about Docker Registry at <https://docs.docker.com/registry/introduction/>.
## Enable the Container Registry for your project
If you cannot find the **Packages > Container Registry** entry under your
project's sidebar, it is not enabled in your GitLab instance. Ask your
administrator to enable GitLab Container Registry following the
[administration documentation](../../../administration/packages/container_registry.md).
If you are using GitLab.com, this is enabled by default so you can start using
the Registry immediately. Currently there is a soft (10GB) size restriction for
Registry on GitLab.com, as part of the [repository size limit](../../project/repository/index.md).
Once enabled for your GitLab instance, to enable Container Registry for your
project:
1. Go to your project's **Settings > General** page.
1. Expand the **Visibility, project features, permissions** section
and enable the **Container Registry** feature on your project. For new
projects this might be enabled by default. For existing projects
(prior GitLab 8.8), you will have to explicitly enable it.
1. Press **Save changes** for the changes to take effect. You should now be able
to see the **Packages > Container Registry** link in the sidebar.
## Build and push images
> **Notes:**
>
> - Moving or renaming existing container registry repositories is not supported
> once you have pushed images because the images are signed, and the
> signature includes the repository name.
> - To move or rename a repository with a container registry you will have to
> delete all existing images.
If you visit the **Packages > Container Registry** link under your project's
menu, you can see the explicit instructions to login to the Container Registry
using your GitLab credentials.
For example if the Registry's URL is `registry.example.com`, then you should be
able to login with:
```sh
docker login registry.example.com
```
Building and publishing images should be a straightforward process. Just make
sure that you are using the Registry URL with the namespace and project name
that is hosted on GitLab:
```sh
docker build -t registry.example.com/group/project/image .
docker push registry.example.com/group/project/image
```
Your image will be named after the following scheme:
```text
<registry URL>/<namespace>/<project>/<image>
```
GitLab supports up to three levels of image repository names.
Following examples of image tags are valid:
```text
registry.example.com/group/project:some-tag
registry.example.com/group/project/image:latest
registry.example.com/group/project/my/image:rc1
```
## Use images from GitLab Container Registry
To download and run a container from images hosted in GitLab Container Registry,
use `docker run`:
```sh
docker run [options] registry.example.com/group/project/image [arguments]
```
For more information on running Docker containers, visit the
[Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/intro/).
## Control Container Registry from within GitLab
GitLab offers a simple Container Registry management panel. Go to your project
and click **Packages > Container Registry** in the project menu.
This view will show you all tags in your project and will easily allow you to
delete them.
## Build and push images using GitLab CI
NOTE: **Note:**
This feature requires GitLab 8.8 and GitLab Runner 1.2.
Make sure that your GitLab Runner is configured to allow building Docker images by
following the [Using Docker Build](../../../ci/docker/using_docker_build.md)
and [Using the GitLab Container Registry documentation](../../../ci/docker/using_docker_build.md#using-the-gitlab-container-registry).
Alternatively, you can [build images with Kaniko](../../../ci/docker/using_kaniko.md) if the Docker builds are not an option for you.
## Using with private projects
> Personal Access tokens were [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/11845) in GitLab 9.3.
> Project Deploy Tokens were [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/17894) in GitLab 10.7
If a project is private, credentials will need to be provided for authorization.
There are two ways to do this:
- By using a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
- By using a [deploy token](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md).
The minimal scope needed for both of them is `read_registry`.
Example of using a token:
```sh
docker login registry.example.com -u <username> -p <token>
```
## Troubleshooting the GitLab Container Registry
### Docker connection error
A Docker connection error can occur when there are special characters in either the group,
project or branch name. Special characters can include:
- Leading underscore
- Trailing hyphen/dash
- Double hyphen/dash
To get around this, you can [change the group path](../../group/index.md#changing-a-groups-path),
[change the project path](../../project/settings/index.md#renaming-a-repository) or change the branch
name.
### Troubleshoot as a GitLab server admin
Troubleshooting the GitLab Container Registry, most of the times, requires
administration access to the GitLab server.
[Read how to troubleshoot the Container Registry](../../../administration/packages/container_registry.md#troubleshooting).

> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.11.
NOTE: **Note:**
This is the user guide. In order to use the dependency proxy, an administrator
must first [configure it](../../../administration/packages/dependency_proxy.md).
For many organizations, it is desirable to have a local proxy for frequently used
upstream images/packages. In the case of CI/CD, the proxy is responsible for
receiving a request and returning the upstream image from a registry, acting
as a pull-through cache.
The dependency proxy is available in the group level. To access it, navigate to
a group's **Overview > Dependency Proxy**.
![Dependency Proxy group page](img/group_dependency_proxy.png)
## Supported dependency proxies
NOTE: **Note:**
For a list of the upcoming additions to the proxies, visit the
[direction page](https://about.gitlab.com/direction/package/dependency_proxy/#top-vision-items).
The following dependency proxies are supported.
| Dependency proxy | GitLab version |
| ---------------- | -------------- |
| Docker | 11.11+ |
## Using the Docker dependency proxy
With the Docker dependency proxy, you can use GitLab as a source for a Docker image.
To get a Docker image into the dependency proxy:
1. Find the proxy URL on your group's page under **Overview > Dependency Proxy**,
for example `gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers`.
1. Trigger GitLab to pull the Docker image you want (e.g., `alpine:latest` or
`linuxserver/nextcloud:latest`) and store it in the proxy storage by using
one of the following ways:
- Manually pulling the Docker image:
```bash
docker pull gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
- From a `Dockerfile`:
```bash
FROM gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
- In [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#image):
```bash
image: gitlab.com/groupname/dependency_proxy/containers/alpine:latest
```
GitLab will then pull the Docker image from Docker Hub and will cache the blobs
on the GitLab server. The next time you pull the same image, it will get the latest
information about the image from Docker Hub but will serve the existing blobs
from GitLab.
The blobs are kept forever, and there is no hard limit on how much data can be
stored.
## Limitations
The following limitations apply:
- Only public groups are supported (authentication is not supported yet).
- Only Docker Hub is supported.
- This feature requires Docker Hub being available.
# GitLab Package Registry
GitLab Packages allows organizations to utilize GitLab as a private repository
for a variety of common package managers. Users are able to build and publish
packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.
The Packages feature allows GitLab to act as a repository for the following:
| Software repository | Description | Available in GitLab version |
| ------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------- |
| [Container Registry](container_registry/index.md) | The GitLab Container Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) images. | 8.8+ |
| [Dependency Proxy](dependency_proxy/index.md) **(PREMIUM)** | The GitLab Dependency Proxy sets up a local proxy for frequently used upstream images/packages. | 11.11+ |
| [Maven Repository](maven_repository/index.md) **(PREMIUM)** | The GitLab Maven Repository enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) packages. | 11.3+ |
| [NPM Registry](npm_registry/index.md) **(PREMIUM)** | The GitLab NPM Registry enables every project in GitLab to have its own space to store [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) packages. | 11.7+ |
TIP: **Tip:**
Don't you see your package management system supported yet? Consider contributing
to GitLab. This [development documentation](../../development/packages.md) will
guide you through the process.
# GitLab Maven Repository **(PREMIUM)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5811) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.3.
With the GitLab [Maven](https://maven.apache.org) Repository, every
project can have its own space to store its Maven artifacts.
![GitLab Maven Repository](img/maven_package_view.png)
## Enabling the Maven Repository
NOTE: **Note:**
This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
[enabled support for the Maven repository](../../../administration/packages/index.md).**(PREMIUM ONLY)**
After the Packages feature is enabled, the Maven Repository will be available for
all new projects by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want
to disable it:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Permissions**.
1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
You should then be able to see the **Packages** section on the left sidebar.
Next, you must configure your project to authorize with the GitLab Maven
repository.
## Authenticating to the GitLab Maven Repository
If a project is private or you want to upload Maven artifacts to GitLab,
credentials will need to be provided for authorization. Support is available for
[personal access tokens](#authenticating-with-a-personal-access-token) and
[CI job tokens](#authenticating-with-a-ci-job-token) only.
[Deploy tokens](../../project/deploy_tokens/index.md) and regular username/password
credentials do not work.
### Authenticating with a personal access token
To authenticate with a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md),
add a corresponding section to your
[`settings.xml`](https://maven.apache.org/settings.html) file:
```xml
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Private-Token</name>
<value>REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
You should now be able to upload Maven artifacts to your project.
### Authenticating with a CI job token
If you're using Maven with GitLab CI/CD, a CI job token can be used instead
of a personal access token.
To authenticate with a CI job token, add a corresponding section to your
[`settings.xml`](https://maven.apache.org/settings.html) file:
```xml
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Job-Token</name>
<value>${env.CI_JOB_TOKEN}</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
You can read more on
[how to create Maven packages using GitLab CI/CD](#creating-maven-packages-with-gitlab-cicd).
## Configuring your project to use the GitLab Maven repository URL
To download and upload packages from GitLab, you need a `repository` and
`distributionManagement` section in your `pom.xml` file.
Depending on your workflow and the amount of Maven packages you have, there are
3 ways you can configure your project to use the GitLab endpoint for Maven packages:
- **Project level**: Useful when you have few Maven packages which are not under
the same GitLab group.
- **Group level**: Useful when you have many Maven packages under the same GitLab
group.
- **Instance level**: Useful when you have many Maven packages under different
GitLab groups or on their own namespace.
NOTE: **Note:**
In all cases, you need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section.
### Project level Maven endpoint
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the project
(e.g., `group%2Fproject`) or the project's ID (e.g., `42`). However, only the
project's ID can be used for uploading.
### Group level Maven endpoint
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/8798) in GitLab Premium 11.7.
If you rely on many packages, it might be inefficient to include the `repository` section
with a unique URL for each package. Instead, you can use the group level endpoint for
all your Maven packages stored within one GitLab group. Only packages you have access to
will be available for download.
The group level endpoint works with any package names, which means the you
have the flexibility of naming compared to [instance level endpoint](#instance-level-maven-endpoint).
However, GitLab will not guarantee the uniqueness of the package names within
the group. You can have two projects with the same package name and package
version. As a result, GitLab will serve whichever one is more recent.
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like. You still need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/my-group/-/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `my-group` with your group name and `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID
which can be found on the home page of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the group
(e.g., `group%2Fsubgroup`) or the group's ID (e.g., `12`).
### Instance level Maven endpoint
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/8274) in GitLab Premium 11.7.
If you rely on many packages, it might be inefficient to include the `repository` section
with a unique URL for each package. Instead, you can use the instance level endpoint for
all maven packages stored in GitLab and the packages you have access to will be available
for download.
Note that **only packages that have the same path as the project** are exposed via
the instance level endpoint.
| Project | Package | Instance level endpoint available |
| ------- | ------- | --------------------------------- |
| `foo/bar` | `foo/bar/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `foo/bar/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | No |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | Yes |
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like. You still need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the project
(e.g., `group%2Fproject`) or the project's ID (e.g., `42`). However, only the
project's ID can be used for uploading.
## Uploading packages
Once you have set up the [authentication](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository)
and [configuration](#configuring-your-project-to-use-the-gitlab-maven-repository-url),
test to upload a Maven artifact from a project of yours:
```sh
mvn deploy
```
You can then navigate to your project's **Packages** page and see the uploaded
artifacts or even delete them.
## Creating Maven packages with GitLab CI/CD
Once you have your repository configured to use the GitLab Maven Repository,
you can configure GitLab CI/CD to build new packages automatically. The example below
shows how to create a new package each time the `master` branch is updated:
1. Create a `ci_settings.xml` file that will serve as Maven's `settings.xml` file.
Add the server section with the same id you defined in your `pom.xml` file.
For example, in our case it's `gitlab-maven`:
```xml
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.1.0.xsd">
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Job-Token</name>
<value>${env.CI_JOB_TOKEN}</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
1. Make sure your `pom.xml` file includes the following:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
TIP: **Tip:**
You can either let Maven utilize the CI environment variables or hardcode your project's ID.
1. Add a `deploy` job to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
```yaml
deploy:
image: maven:3.3.9-jdk-8
script:
- 'mvn deploy -s ci_settings.xml'
only:
- master
```
1. Push those files to your repository.
The next time the `deploy` job runs, it will copy `ci_settings.xml` to the
user's home location (in this case the user is `root` since it runs in a
Docker container), and Maven will utilize the configured CI
[environment variables](../../../ci/variables/README.md#predefined-environment-variables).
# GitLab NPM Registry **(PREMIUM)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.7.
With the GitLab NPM Registry, every
project can have its own space to store NPM packages.
![GitLab NPM Registry](img/npm_package_view.png)
NOTE: **Note:**
Only [scoped](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scope) packages are supported.
## Enabling the NPM Registry
NOTE: **Note:**
This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
[enabled support for the NPM registry](../../../administration/packages/index.md).**(PREMIUM ONLY)**
After the NPM registry is enabled, it will be available for all new projects
by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want to disable it:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Permissions**.
1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
You should then be able to see the **Packages** section on the left sidebar.
Before proceeding to authenticating with the GitLab NPM Registry, you should
get familiar with the package naming convention.
## Package naming convention
**Packages must be scoped in the root namespace of the project**. The package
name may be anything but it is preferred that the project name be used unless
it is not possible due to a naming collision. For example:
| Project | Package | Supported |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------- | --------- |
| `foo/bar` | `@foo/bar` | Yes |
| `foo/bar/baz` | `@foo/baz` | Yes |
| `foo/bar/buz` | `@foo/anything` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `@gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `@foo/bar` | No |
Now, you can configure your project to authenticate with the GitLab NPM
Registry.
## Authenticating to the GitLab NPM Registry
If a project is private or you want to upload an NPM package to GitLab,
credentials will need to be provided for authentication. Support is available for [OAuth tokens](../../../api/oauth2.md#resource-owner-password-credentials-flow) or [personal access tokens](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
CAUTION: **2FA is only supported with personal access tokens:**
If you have 2FA enabled, you need to use a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with OAuth headers. Standard OAuth tokens won't be able to authenticate to the GitLab NPM Registry.
### Authenticating with an OAuth token
To authenticate with an [OAuth token](../../../api/oauth2.md#resource-owner-password-credentials-flow)
or [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md), add a corresponding section to your `.npmrc` file:
```ini
; Set URL for your scoped packages.
; For example package with name `@foo/bar` will use this URL for download
@foo:registry=https://gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/npm/
; Add the token for the scoped packages URL. This will allow you to download
; `@foo/` packages from private projects.
//gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/npm/:_authToken=<your_token>
; Add token for uploading to the registry. Replace <your_project_id>
; with the project you want your package to be uploaded to.
//gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<your_project_id>/packages/npm/:_authToken=<your_token>
```
Replace `<your_project_id>` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project and `<your_token>` with your OAuth or personal access token.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
You should now be able to download and upload NPM packages to your project.
NOTE: **Note:**
If you encounter an error message with [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/), see the
[troubleshooting section](#troubleshooting).
## Uploading packages
Before you will be able to upload a package, you need to specify the registry
for NPM. To do this, add the following section to the bottom of `package.json`:
```json
"publishConfig": {
"@foo:registry":"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<your_project_id>/packages/npm/"
}
```
Replace `<your_project_id>` with your project ID, which can be found on the home
page of your project, and replace `@foo` with your own scope.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
Once you have enabled it and set up [authentication](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-npm-registry),
you can upload an NPM package to your project:
```sh
npm publish
```
You can then navigate to your project's **Packages** page and see the uploaded
packages or even delete them.
If you attempt to publish a package with a name that already exists within
a given scope, you will receive a `403 Forbidden!` error.
## Uploading a package with the same version twice
If you upload a package with a same name and version twice, GitLab will show
both packages in the UI, but the GitLab NPM Registry will expose the most recent
one as it supports only one package per version for `npm install`.
## Troubleshooting
### Error running yarn with NPM registry
If you are using [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/) with the NPM registry, you may get
an error message like:
```sh
yarn install v1.15.2
warning package.json: No license field
info No lockfile found.
warning XXX: No license field
[1/4] 🔍 Resolving packages...
[2/4] 🚚 Fetching packages...
error An unexpected error occurred: "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/XXX/packages/npm/XXX/XXX/-/XXX/XXX-X.X.X.tgz: Request failed \"404 Not Found\"".
info If you think this is a bug, please open a bug report with the information provided in "/Users/XXX/gitlab-migration/module-util/yarn-error.log".
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/install for documentation about this command
```
In this case, try adding this to your `.npmrc` file (and replace `<your_oauth_token>`
with your with your OAuth or personal access token):
```text
//gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:_authToken=<your_oauth_token>
```

# GitLab Container Registry
---
redirect_to: '../packages/container_registry/index.md'
---
> - [Introduced][ce-4040] in GitLab 8.8.
> - Docker Registry manifest `v1` support was added in GitLab 8.9 to support Docker
> versions earlier than 1.10.
> - Starting from GitLab 8.12, if you have 2FA enabled in your account, you need
> to pass a [personal access token][pat] instead of your password in order to
> login to GitLab's Container Registry.
> - Multiple level image names support was added in GitLab 9.1.
With the Docker Container Registry integrated into GitLab, every project can
have its own space to store its Docker images.
This document is the user guide. To learn how to enable GitLab Container
Registry across your GitLab instance, visit the
[administrator documentation](../../administration/container_registry.md).
You can read more about Docker Registry at <https://docs.docker.com/registry/introduction/>.
## Enable the Container Registry for your project
If you cannot find the **Packages > Container Registry** entry under your
project's sidebar, it is not enabled in your GitLab instance. Ask your
administrator to enable GitLab Container Registry following the
[administration documentation](../../administration/container_registry.md).
If you are using GitLab.com, this is enabled by default so you can start using
the Registry immediately. Currently there is a soft (10GB) size restriction for
registry on GitLab.com, as part of the [repository size limit](repository/index.md).
Once enabled for your GitLab instance, to enable Container Registry for your
project:
1. Go to your project's **Settings > General** page.
1. Expand the **Visibility, project features, permissions** section
and enable the **Container Registry** feature on your project. For new
projects this might be enabled by default. For existing projects
(prior GitLab 8.8), you will have to explicitly enable it.
1. Press **Save changes** for the changes to take effect. You should now be able
to see the **Packages > Container Registry** link in the sidebar.
## Build and push images
> **Notes:**
>
> - Moving or renaming existing container registry repositories is not supported
> once you have pushed images because the images are signed, and the
> signature includes the repository name.
> - To move or rename a repository with a container registry you will have to
> delete all existing images.
If you visit the **Packages > Container Registry** link under your project's
menu, you can see the explicit instructions to login to the Container Registry
using your GitLab credentials.
For example if the Registry's URL is `registry.example.com`, then you should be
able to login with:
```sh
docker login registry.example.com
```
Building and publishing images should be a straightforward process. Just make
sure that you are using the Registry URL with the namespace and project name
that is hosted on GitLab:
```sh
docker build -t registry.example.com/group/project/image .
docker push registry.example.com/group/project/image
```
Your image will be named after the following scheme:
```text
<registry URL>/<namespace>/<project>/<image>
```
GitLab supports up to three levels of image repository names.
Following examples of image tags are valid:
```text
registry.example.com/group/project:some-tag
registry.example.com/group/project/image:latest
registry.example.com/group/project/my/image:rc1
```
## Use images from GitLab Container Registry
To download and run a container from images hosted in GitLab Container Registry,
use `docker run`:
```sh
docker run [options] registry.example.com/group/project/image [arguments]
```
For more information on running Docker containers, visit the
[Docker documentation][docker-docs].
## Control Container Registry from within GitLab
GitLab offers a simple Container Registry management panel. Go to your project
and click **Packages > Container Registry** in the project menu.
This view will show you all tags in your project and will easily allow you to
delete them.
## Build and push images using GitLab CI
> **Note:**
This feature requires GitLab 8.8 and GitLab Runner 1.2.
Make sure that your GitLab Runner is configured to allow building Docker images by
following the [Using Docker Build](../../ci/docker/using_docker_build.md)
and [Using the GitLab Container Registry documentation](../../ci/docker/using_docker_build.md#using-the-gitlab-container-registry).
Alternatively, you can [build images with Kaniko](../../ci/docker/using_kaniko.md) if the Docker builds are not an option for you.
## Using with private projects
> Personal Access tokens were [introduced][ce-11845] in GitLab 9.3.
> Project Deploy Tokens were [introduced][ce-17894] in GitLab 10.7
If a project is private, credentials will need to be provided for authorization.
There are two ways to do this:
- By using a [personal access token](../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
- By using a [deploy token](../project/deploy_tokens/index.md).
The minimal scope needed for both of them is `read_registry`.
Example of using a token:
```sh
docker login registry.example.com -u <username> -p <token>
```
## Troubleshooting the GitLab Container Registry
### Basic Troubleshooting
1. Check to make sure that the system clock on your Docker client and GitLab server have
been synchronized (e.g. via NTP).
1. If you are using an S3-backed Registry, double check that the IAM
permissions and the S3 credentials (including region) are correct. See [the
sample IAM policy](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/)
for more details.
1. Check the Registry logs (e.g. `/var/log/gitlab/registry/current`) and the GitLab production logs
for errors (e.g. `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/production.log`). You may be able to find clues
there.
#### Enable the registry debug server
The optional debug server can be enabled by setting the registry debug address
in your `gitlab.rb` configuration.
```ruby
registry['debug_addr'] = "localhost:5001"
```
After adding the setting, [reconfigure] GitLab to apply the change.
Use curl to request debug output from the debug server:
```bash
curl localhost:5001/debug/health
curl localhost:5001/debug/vars
```
#### Docker connection error
A Docker connection error can occur when there are special characters in either the group,
project or branch name. Special characters can include:
- Leading underscore
- Trailing hyphen/dash
- Double hyphen/dash
To get around this, you can [change the group path](../group/index.md#changing-a-groups-path),
[change the project path](../project/settings/index.md#renaming-a-repository) or chanage the branch
name.
### Advanced Troubleshooting
NOTE: **Note:**
The following section is only recommended for experts.
Sometimes it's not obvious what is wrong, and you may need to dive deeper into
the communication between the Docker client and the Registry to find out
what's wrong. We will use a concrete example in the past to illustrate how to
diagnose a problem with the S3 setup.
#### Unexpected 403 error during push
A user attempted to enable an S3-backed Registry. The `docker login` step went
fine. However, when pushing an image, the output showed:
```text
The push refers to a repository [s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567/root/docker-test/docker-image]
dc5e59c14160: Pushing [==================================================>] 14.85 kB

19429b698a22: Waiting
9436069b92a3: Waiting
error parsing HTTP 403 response body: unexpected end of JSON input: ""
```
This error is ambiguous, as it's not clear whether the 403 is coming from the
GitLab Rails application, the Docker Registry, or something else. In this
case, since we know that since the login succeeded, we probably need to look
at the communication between the client and the Registry.
The REST API between the Docker client and Registry is [described
here](https://docs.docker.com/registry/spec/api/). Normally, one would just
use Wireshark or tcpdump to capture the traffic and see where things went
wrong. However, since all communications between Docker clients and servers
are done over HTTPS, it's a bit difficult to decrypt the traffic quickly even
if you know the private key. What can we do instead?
One way would be to disable HTTPS by setting up an [insecure
Registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/insecure/). This could introduce a
security hole and is only recommended for local testing. If you have a
production system and can't or don't want to do this, there is another way:
use mitmproxy, which stands for Man-in-the-Middle Proxy.
#### mitmproxy
[mitmproxy](https://mitmproxy.org/) allows you to place a proxy between your
client and server to inspect all traffic. One wrinkle is that your system
needs to trust the mitmproxy SSL certificates for this to work.
The following installation instructions assume you are running Ubuntu:
1. [Install mitmproxy](https://docs.mitmproxy.org/stable/overview-installation/).
1. Run `mitmproxy --port 9000` to generate its certificates.
Enter <kbd>CTRL</kbd>-<kbd>C</kbd> to quit.
1. Install the certificate from `~/.mitmproxy` to your system:
```sh
sudo cp ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/mitmproxy-ca-cert.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
If successful, the output should indicate that a certificate was added:
```sh
Updating certificates in /etc/ssl/certs... 1 added, 0 removed; done.
Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d....done.
```
To verify that the certificates are properly installed, run:
```sh
mitmproxy --port 9000
```
This will run mitmproxy on port `9000`. In another window, run:
```sh
curl --proxy http://localhost:9000 https://httpbin.org/status/200
```
If everything is set up correctly, you will see information on the mitmproxy window and
no errors from the curl commands.
#### Running the Docker daemon with a proxy
For Docker to connect through a proxy, you must start the Docker daemon with the
proper environment variables. The easiest way is to shutdown Docker (e.g. `sudo initctl stop docker`)
and then run Docker by hand. As root, run:
```sh
export HTTP_PROXY="http://localhost:9000"
export HTTPS_PROXY="https://localhost:9000"
docker daemon --debug
```
This will launch the Docker daemon and proxy all connections through mitmproxy.
#### Running the Docker client
Now that we have mitmproxy and Docker running, we can attempt to login and push
a container image. You may need to run as root to do this. For example:
```sh
docker login s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567
docker push s3-testing.myregistry.com:4567/root/docker-test/docker-image
```
In the example above, we see the following trace on the mitmproxy window:
![mitmproxy output from Docker](img/mitmproxy-docker.png)
The above image shows:
- The initial PUT requests went through fine with a 201 status code.
- The 201 redirected the client to the S3 bucket.
- The HEAD request to the AWS bucket reported a 403 Unauthorized.
What does this mean? This strongly suggests that the S3 user does not have the right
[permissions to perform a HEAD request](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/RESTObjectHEAD.html).
The solution: check the [IAM permissions again](https://docs.docker.com/registry/storage-drivers/s3/).
Once the right permissions were set, the error will go away.

# GitLab Maven Repository **(PREMIUM)**
---
redirect_to: '../../packages/maven_repository/index.md'
---
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5811) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.3.
With the GitLab [Maven](https://maven.apache.org) Repository, every
project can have its own space to store its Maven artifacts.
![GitLab Maven Repository](img/maven_package_view.png)
## Enabling the Maven Repository
NOTE: **Note:**
This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
[enabled support for the Maven repository](../../../administration/packages.md).**(PREMIUM ONLY)**
After the Packages feature is enabled, the Maven Repository will be available for
all new projects by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want
to disable it:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Permissions**.
1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
You should then be able to see the **Packages** section on the left sidebar.
Next, you must configure your project to authorize with the GitLab Maven
repository.
## Authenticating to the GitLab Maven Repository
If a project is private or you want to upload Maven artifacts to GitLab,
credentials will need to be provided for authorization. Support is available for
[personal access tokens](#authenticating-with-a-personal-access-token) and
[CI job tokens](#authenticating-with-a-ci-job-token) only.
[Deploy tokens](../deploy_tokens/index.md) and regular username/password
credentials do not work.
### Authenticating with a personal access token
To authenticate with a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md),
add a corresponding section to your
[`settings.xml`](https://maven.apache.org/settings.html) file:
```xml
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Private-Token</name>
<value>REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
You should now be able to upload Maven artifacts to your project.
### Authenticating with a CI job token
If you're using Maven with GitLab CI/CD, a CI job token can be used instead
of a personal access token.
To authenticate with a CI job token, add a corresponding section to your
[`settings.xml`](https://maven.apache.org/settings.html) file:
```xml
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Job-Token</name>
<value>${env.CI_JOB_TOKEN}</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
You can read more on
[how to create Maven packages using GitLab CI/CD](#creating-maven-packages-with-gitlab-cicd).
## Configuring your project to use the GitLab Maven repository URL
To download and upload packages from GitLab, you need a `repository` and
`distributionManagement` section in your `pom.xml` file.
Depending on your workflow and the amount of Maven packages you have, there are
3 ways you can configure your project to use the GitLab endpoint for Maven packages:
- **Project level**: Useful when you have few Maven packages which are not under
the same GitLab group.
- **Group level**: Useful when you have many Maven packages under the same GitLab
group.
- **Instance level**: Useful when you have many Maven packages under different
GitLab groups or on their own namespace.
NOTE: **Note:**
In all cases, you need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section.
### Project level Maven endpoint
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the project
(e.g., `group%2Fproject`) or the project's ID (e.g., `42`). However, only the
project's ID can be used for uploading.
### Group level Maven endpoint
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/8798) in GitLab Premium 11.7.
If you rely on many packages, it might be inefficient to include the `repository` section
with a unique URL for each package. Instead, you can use the group level endpoint for
all your Maven packages stored within one GitLab group. Only packages you have access to
will be available for download.
The group level endpoint works with any package names, which means the you
have the flexibility of naming compared to [instance level endpoint](#instance-level-maven-endpoint).
However, GitLab will not guarantee the uniqueness of the package names within
the group. You can have two projects with the same package name and package
version. As a result, GitLab will serve whichever one is more recent.
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like. You still need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/my-group/-/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `my-group` with your group name and `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID
which can be found on the home page of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the group
(e.g., `group%2Fsubgroup`) or the group's ID (e.g., `12`).
### Instance level Maven endpoint
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/8274) in GitLab Premium 11.7.
If you rely on many packages, it might be inefficient to include the `repository` section
with a unique URL for each package. Instead, you can use the instance level endpoint for
all maven packages stored in GitLab and the packages you have access to will be available
for download.
Note that **only packages that have the same path as the project** are exposed via
the instance level endpoint.
| Project | Package | Instance level endpoint available |
| ------- | ------- | --------------------------------- |
| `foo/bar` | `foo/bar/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `foo/bar/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | No |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/1.0-SNAPSHOT` | Yes |
The example below shows how the relevant `repository` section of your `pom.xml`
would look like. You still need a project specific URL for uploading a package in
the `distributionManagement` section:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/PROJECT_ID/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
The `id` must be the same with what you
[defined in `settings.xml`](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository).
Replace `PROJECT_ID` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
NOTE: **Note:**
For retrieving artifacts, you can use either the
[URL encoded](../../../api/README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) path of the project
(e.g., `group%2Fproject`) or the project's ID (e.g., `42`). However, only the
project's ID can be used for uploading.
## Uploading packages
Once you have set up the [authentication](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-maven-repository)
and [configuration](#configuring-your-project-to-use-the-gitlab-maven-repository-url),
test to upload a Maven artifact from a project of yours:
```sh
mvn deploy
```
You can then navigate to your project's **Packages** page and see the uploaded
artifacts or even delete them.
## Creating Maven packages with GitLab CI/CD
Once you have your repository configured to use the GitLab Maven Repository,
you can configure GitLab CI/CD to build new packages automatically. The example below
shows how to create a new package each time the `master` branch is updated:
1. Create a `ci_settings.xml` file that will serve as Maven's `settings.xml` file.
Add the server section with the same id you defined in your `pom.xml` file.
For example, in our case it's `gitlab-maven`:
```xml
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.1.0.xsd">
<servers>
<server>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Job-Token</name>
<value>${env.CI_JOB_TOKEN}</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>
```
1. Make sure your `pom.xml` file includes the following:
```xml
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>gitlab-maven</id>
<url>https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/${env.CI_PROJECT_ID}/packages/maven</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
```
TIP: **Tip:**
You can either let Maven utilize the CI environment variables or hardcode your project's ID.
1. Add a `deploy` job to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
```yaml
deploy:
image: maven:3.3.9-jdk-8
script:
- 'mvn deploy -s ci_settings.xml'
only:
- master
```
1. Push those files to your repository.
The next time the `deploy` job runs, it will copy `ci_settings.xml` to the
user's home location (in this case the user is `root` since it runs in a
Docker container), and Maven will utilize the configured CI
[environment variables](../../../ci/variables/README.md#predefined-environment-variables).

# GitLab NPM Registry **(PREMIUM)**
---
redirect_to: '../../packages/npm_registry/index.md'
---
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5934) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.7.
With the GitLab NPM Registry, every
project can have its own space to store NPM packages.
![GitLab NPM Registry](img/npm_package_view.png)
NOTE: **Note:**
Only [scoped](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scope) packages are supported.
## Enabling the NPM Registry
NOTE: **Note:**
This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
[enabled support for the NPM registry](../../../administration/packages.md).**(PREMIUM ONLY)**
After the NPM registry is enabled, it will be available for all new projects
by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want to disable it:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Permissions**.
1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
You should then be able to see the **Packages** section on the left sidebar.
Before proceeding to authenticating with the GitLab NPM Registry, you should
get familiar with the package naming convention.
## Package naming convention
**Packages must be scoped in the root namespace of the project**. The package
name may be anything but it is preferred that the project name be used unless
it is not possible due to a naming collision. For example:
| Project | Package | Supported |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------- | --------- |
| `foo/bar` | `@foo/bar` | Yes |
| `foo/bar/baz` | `@foo/baz` | Yes |
| `foo/bar/buz` | `@foo/anything` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `@gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | Yes |
| `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` | `@foo/bar` | No |
Now, you can configure your project to authenticate with the GitLab NPM
Registry.
## Authenticating to the GitLab NPM Registry
If a project is private or you want to upload an NPM package to GitLab,
credentials will need to be provided for authentication. Support is available for [OAuth tokens](../../../api/oauth2.md#resource-owner-password-credentials-flow) or [personal access tokens](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md).
CAUTION: **2FA is only supported with personal access tokens:**
If you have 2FA enabled, you need to use a [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with OAuth headers. Standard OAuth tokens won't be able to authenticate to the GitLab NPM Registry.
### Authenticating with an OAuth token
To authenticate with an [OAuth token](../../../api/oauth2.md#resource-owner-password-credentials-flow)
or [personal access token](../../profile/personal_access_tokens.md), add a corresponding section to your `.npmrc` file:
```ini
; Set URL for your scoped packages.
; For example package with name `@foo/bar` will use this URL for download
@foo:registry=https://gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/npm/
; Add the token for the scoped packages URL. This will allow you to download
; `@foo/` packages from private projects.
//gitlab.com/api/v4/packages/npm/:_authToken=<your_token>
; Add token for uploading to the registry. Replace <your_project_id>
; with the project you want your package to be uploaded to.
//gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<your_project_id>/packages/npm/:_authToken=<your_token>
```
Replace `<your_project_id>` with your project ID which can be found on the home page
of your project and `<your_token>` with your OAuth or personal access token.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
You should now be able to download and upload NPM packages to your project.
NOTE: **Note:**
If you encounter an error message with [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/), see the
[troubleshooting section](#troubleshooting).
## Uploading packages
Before you will be able to upload a package, you need to specify the registry
for NPM. To do this, add the following section to the bottom of `package.json`:
```json
"publishConfig": {
"@foo:registry":"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<your_project_id>/packages/npm/"
}
```
Replace `<your_project_id>` with your project ID, which can be found on the home
page of your project, and replace `@foo` with your own scope.
If you have a self-hosted GitLab installation, replace `gitlab.com` with your
domain name.
Once you have enabled it and set up [authentication](#authenticating-to-the-gitlab-npm-registry),
you can upload an NPM package to your project:
```sh
npm publish
```
You can then navigate to your project's **Packages** page and see the uploaded
packages or even delete them.
If you attempt to publish a package with a name that already exists within
a given scope, you will receive a `403 Forbidden!` error.
## Uploading a package with the same version twice
If you upload a package with a same name and version twice, GitLab will show
both packages in the UI, but the GitLab NPM Registry will expose the most recent
one as it supports only one package per version for `npm install`.
## Troubleshooting
### Error running yarn with NPM registry
If you are using [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/) with the NPM registry, you may get
an error message like:
