The repository owner on github shared the following repository (mxtsit/myswitchXSS) with me and it's not showing up on the docker hub unlike couple of previous repositories he had shared.
I am getting the following error, despite having correct repository name:
docker@boot2docker:~$ docker pull mxtsit/myswitchXSS
2014/11/12 17:53:43 Invalid repository name (myswitchXSS), only [a-z0-9-_.] are allowed
I suspect that docker doesn't recognize any Uppercase letters as mentioned in the error
description only [a-z0-9-_.] are allowed , please correct me if I am wrong. I am wondering if there is any official documentation available which talks about valid repository names on docker?
In the recent past, whatever repositories I have pulled were in small case and has . notation. Is there any way I can overcome this problem? Also, I can't find the repository on Dockerhub unlike previous repositories which ideally should be there as I can see it on my github account.
You might be right. I haven't seen a repository with upper case.
try this:
In this case, Docker bypasses the Docker Hub. However the security is not guaranteed because there won't be any checksum checks.
Currently registry redirects to s3 urls for downloads, going forward all downloads need to be streamed through the registry. The Registry will then abstract the calls to S3 by a top-level class which implements sub-classes for S3 and local storage.
