## Using images from the Docker Hub
- For everyone's convenience, we took care of building DockerCoins images
- We pushed these images to the DockerHub, under the [dockercoins](https://hub.docker.com/u/dockercoins) user
- These images are *tagged* with a version number, `v0.1`
- The full image names are therefore:
- `dockercoins/hasher:v0.1`
- `dockercoins/rng:v0.1`
- `dockercoins/webui:v0.1`
- `dockercoins/worker:v0.1`
---
## Setting `$REGISTRY` and `$TAG`
- In the upcoming exercises and labs, we use a couple of environment variables:
- `$REGISTRY` as a prefix to all image names
- `$TAG` as the image version tag
- For example, the worker image is `$REGISTRY/worker:$TAG`
- If you copy-paste the commands in these exercises:
**make sure that you set `$REGISTRY` and `$TAG` first!**
- For example:
```
export REGISTRY=dockercoins TAG=v0.1
```
(this will expand `$REGISTRY/worker:$TAG` to `dockercoins/worker:v0.1`)

## Self-hosting our registry
*Note: this section shows how to run the Docker
open source registry and use it to ship images
on our cluster. While this method works fine,
we recommend that you consider using one of the
hosted, free automated build services instead.
It will be much easier!*
*If you need to run a registry on premises,
this section gives you a starting point, but
you will need to make a lot of changes so that
the registry is secured, highly available, and
so that your build pipeline is automated.*
---
## Using the open source registry
- We need to run a `registry` container
- It will store images and layers to the local filesystem
<br/>(but you can add a config file to use S3, Swift, etc.)
- Docker *requires* TLS when communicating with the registry
- unless for registries on `127.0.0.0/8` (i.e. `localhost`)
- or with the Engine flag `--insecure-registry`
- Our strategy: publish the registry container on a NodePort,
<br/>so that it's available through `127.0.0.1:xxxxx` on each node
---
## Deploying a self-hosted registry
- We will deploy a registry container, and expose it with a NodePort
.exercise[
- Create the registry service:
```bash
kubectl create deployment registry --image=registry
```
- Expose it on a NodePort:
```bash
kubectl expose deploy/registry --port=5000 --type=NodePort
```
]
---
## Connecting to our registry
- We need to find out which port has been allocated
.exercise[
- View the service details:
```bash
kubectl describe svc/registry
```
- Get the port number programmatically:
```bash
NODEPORT=$(kubectl get svc/registry -o json | jq .spec.ports[0].nodePort)
REGISTRY=127.0.0.1:$NODEPORT
```
]
---
## Testing our registry
- A convenient Docker registry API route to remember is `/v2/_catalog`
.exercise[
<!-- ```hide kubectl wait deploy/registry --for condition=available```-->
- View the repositories currently held in our registry:
```bash
curl $REGISTRY/v2/_catalog
```
]
--
We should see:
```json
{"repositories":[]}
```
---
## Testing our local registry
- We can retag a small image, and push it to the registry
.exercise[
- Make sure we have the busybox image, and retag it:
```bash
docker pull busybox
docker tag busybox $REGISTRY/busybox
```
- Push it:
```bash
docker push $REGISTRY/busybox
```
]
---
## Checking again what's on our local registry
- Let's use the same endpoint as before
.exercise[
- Ensure that our busybox image is now in the local registry:
```bash
curl $REGISTRY/v2/_catalog
```
]
The curl command should now output:
```json
{"repositories":["busybox"]}
```
---
## Building and pushing our images
- We are going to use a convenient feature of Docker Compose
.exercise[
- Go to the `stacks` directory:
```bash
cd ~/container.training/stacks
```
- Build and push the images:
```bash
export REGISTRY
export TAG=v0.1
docker-compose -f dockercoins.yml build
docker-compose -f dockercoins.yml push
```
]
Let's have a look at the `dockercoins.yml` file while this is building and pushing.
---
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
rng:
build: dockercoins/rng
image: ${REGISTRY-127.0.0.1:5000}/rng:${TAG-latest}
deploy:
mode: global
...
redis:
image: redis
...
worker:
build: dockercoins/worker
image: ${REGISTRY-127.0.0.1:5000}/worker:${TAG-latest}
...
deploy:
replicas: 10
```
.warning[Just in case you were wondering ... Docker "services" are not Kubernetes "services".]
---
class: extra-details
## Avoiding the `latest` tag
.warning[Make sure that you've set the `TAG` variable properly!]
- If you don't, the tag will default to `latest`
- The problem with `latest`: nobody knows what it points to!
- the latest commit in the repo?
- the latest commit in some branch? (Which one?)
- the latest tag?
- some random version pushed by a random team member?
- If you keep pushing the `latest` tag, how do you roll back?
- Image tags should be meaningful, i.e. correspond to code branches, tags, or hashes
---
## Checking the content of the registry
- All our images should now be in the registry
.exercise[
- Re-run the same `curl` command as earlier:
```bash
curl $REGISTRY/v2/_catalog
```
]
*In these slides, all the commands to deploy
DockerCoins will use a $REGISTRY environment
variable, so that we can quickly switch from
the self-hosted registry to pre-built images
hosted on the Docker Hub. So make sure that
this $REGISTRY variable is set correctly when
running the exercises!*

# Shipping images with a registry
- Initially, our app was running on a single node
- We could *build* and *run* in the same place
- Therefore, we did not need to *ship* anything
- Now that we want to run on a cluster, things are different
- The easiest way to ship container images is to use a registry
---
## How Docker registries work (a reminder)
- What happens when we execute `docker run alpine` ?
- If the Engine needs to pull the `alpine` image, it expands it into `library/alpine`
- `library/alpine` is expanded into `index.docker.io/library/alpine`
- The Engine communicates with `index.docker.io` to retrieve `library/alpine:latest`
- To use something else than `index.docker.io`, we specify it in the image name
- Examples:
```bash
docker pull gcr.io/google-containers/alpine-with-bash:1.0
docker build -t registry.mycompany.io:5000/myimage:awesome .
docker push registry.mycompany.io:5000/myimage:awesome
```
---
## The plan
We are going to:
- **build** images for our app,
- **ship** these images with a registry,
- **run** deployments using these images,
- expose (with a ClusterIP) the deployments that need to communicate together,
- expose (with a NodePort) the web UI so we can access it from outside.
---
## Building and shipping our app
- We will pick a registry
(let's pretend the address will be `REGISTRY:PORT`)
- We will build on our control node (`node1`)
(the images will be named `REGISTRY:PORT/servicename`)
- We will push the images to the registry
- These images will be usable by the other nodes of the cluster
(i.e., we could do `docker run REGISTRY:PORT/servicename` from these nodes)
---
## A shortcut opportunity
- As it happens, the images that we need do already exist on the Docker Hub:
https://hub.docker.com/r/dockercoins/
- We could use them instead of using our own registry and images
*In the following slides, we are going to show how to run a registry
and use it to host container images. We will also show you how to
use the existing images from the Docker Hub, so that you can catch
up (or skip altogether the build/push part) if needed.*
---
## Which registry do we want to use?
- We could use the Docker Hub
- There are alternatives like Quay
- Each major cloud provider has an option as well
(ACR on Azure, ECR on AWS, GCR on Google Cloud...)
- There are also commercial products to run our own registry
(Docker EE, Quay...)
- And open source options, too!
*We are going to self-host an open source registry because it's the most generic solution for this workshop. We will use Docker's reference
implementation for simplicity.*

---
## Catching up
- If you have problems deploying the registry ...
- Or building or pushing the images ...
- Don't worry: you can easily use pre-built images from the Docker Hub!
- The images are named `dockercoins/worker:v0.1`, `dockercoins/rng:v0.1`, etc.
- To use them, just set the `REGISTRY` environment variable to `dockercoins`:
```bash
export REGISTRY=dockercoins
```
- Make sure to set the `TAG` to `v0.1`
(our repositories on the Docker Hub do not provide a `latest` tag)

## Running DockerCoins on Kubernetes
- Create one deployment for each component
(hasher, redis, rng, webui, worker)
- Expose deployments that need to accept connections
(hasher, redis, rng, webui)
- For redis, we can use the official redis image
- For the 4 others, we need to build images and push them to some registry
---
## Building and shipping images
- There are *many* options!
- Manually:
- build locally (with `docker build` or otherwise)
- push to the registry
- Automatically:
- build and test locally
- when ready, commit and push a code repository
- the code repository notifies an automated build system
- that system gets the code, builds it, pushes the image to the registry
---
## Which registry do we want to use?
- There are SAAS products like Docker Hub, Quay ...
- Each major cloud provider has an option as well
(ACR on Azure, ECR on AWS, GCR on Google Cloud...)
- There are also commercial products to run our own registry
(Docker EE, Quay...)
- And open source options, too!
- When picking a registry, pay attention to its build system
(when it has one)
