Working with the repository
============================
Top-level repositories and user repositories
--------------------------------------------
Generally, there are two types of repositories: Top-level repositories which are controlled by the people behind
Docker, and user repositories.
* Top-level repositories can easily be recognized by not having a / (slash) in their name. These repositories can
generally be trusted.
* User repositories always come in the form of <username>/<repo_name>. This is what your published images will look like.
* User images are not checked, it is therefore up to you whether or not you trust the creator of this image.
Find public images available on the index
-----------------------------------------
Seach by name, namespace or description
.. code-block:: bash
docker search <value>
Download them simply by their name
.. code-block:: bash
docker pull <value>
Very similarly you can search for and browse the index online on https://index.docker.io
Connecting to the repository
----------------------------
You can create a user on the central docker repository online, or by running
.. code-block:: bash
docker login
If your username does not exist it will prompt you to also enter a password and your e-mail address. It will then
automatically log you in.
Committing a container to a named image
---------------------------------------
In order to commit to the repository it is required to have committed your container to an image with your namespace.
.. code-block:: bash
# for example docker commit $CONTAINER_ID dhrp/kickassapp
docker commit <container_id> <your username>/<some_name>
Pushing a container to the repository
-----------------------------------------
In order to push an image to the repository you need to have committed your container to a named image (see above)
Now you can commit this image to the repository
.. code-block:: bash
# for example docker push dhrp/kickassapp
docker push <image-name>
