Docker Push Post-Processor

Type: docker-push

The Packer Docker push post-processor takes an artifact from the docker-import post-processor and pushes it to a Docker registry.

Configuration

This post-processor has only optional configuration:

• aws_access_key (string) - The AWS access key used to communicate with AWS. Learn how to set this.

• aws_secret_key (string) - The AWS secret key used to communicate with AWS. Learn how to set this.

• aws_token (string) - The AWS access token to use. This is different from the access key and secret key. If you're not sure what this is, then you probably don't need it. This will also be read from the AWS_SESSION_TOKEN environmental variable.

• aws_profile (string) - The AWS shared credentials profile used to communicate with AWS. Learn how to set this.

• ecr_login (boolean) - Defaults to false. If true, the post-processor will login in order to push the image to Amazon EC2 Container Registry (ECR). The post-processor only logs in for the duration of the push. If true login_server is required and login, login_username, and login_password will be ignored.

• keep_input_artifact (boolean) - if true, do not delete the docker image after pushing it to the cloud. Defaults to true, but can be set to false if you do not need to save your local copy of the docker container.

• login (boolean) - Defaults to false. If true, the post-processor will login prior to pushing. For log into ECR see ecr_login.

• login_username (string) - The username to use to authenticate to login.

• login_password (string) - The password to use to authenticate to login.

• login_server (string) - The server address to login to.

-> Note: When using Docker Hub or Quay registry servers, login must to be set to true and login_username, and login_password must to be set to your registry credentials. When using Docker Hub, login_server can be omitted.

-> Note: If you login using the credentials above, the post-processor will automatically log you out afterwards (just the server specified).

Example

For an example of using docker-push, see the section on using generated artifacts from the docker builder.
