image is a set of Go libraries aimed at working in various way with
containers' images and container image registries.
The containers/image library allows application to pull and push images from container image registries, like the upstream docker registry. It also implements "simple image signing".
The containers/image library also allows you to inspect a repository on a
container registry without pulling down the image. This means it fetches the
repository's manifest and it is able to show you a docker inspect-like json
output about a whole repository or a tag. This library, in contrast to docker inspect, helps you gather useful information about a repository or a tag
without requiring you to run docker pull.
The containers/image library also allows you to translate from one image format to another, for example docker container images to OCI images. It also allows you to copy container images between various registries, possibly converting them as necessary, and to sign and verify images.
The skopeo tool uses the containers/image library and takes advantage of its many features.
Dependencies
Dependencies that this library prefers will not be found in the vendor
directory. This is so you can make well-informed decisions about which
libraries you should use with this package in your own projects.
What this project tests against dependencies-wise is located here.
Building
For ordinary use, go build ./... is sufficient.
When developing this library, please use make to take advantage of the tests and validation.
Optionally, you can use the containers_image_openpgp build tag (using go build -tags …, or make … BUILDTAGS=…).
This will use a Golang-only OpenPGP implementation for signature verification instead of the default cgo/gpgme-based implementation;
the primary downside is that creating new signatures with the Golang-only implementation is not supported.
