skopeo-list-tags - Man Page

List image names in a transport-specific collection of images.

Synopsis

skopeo list-tags [options] source-image

Return a list of tags from source-image in a registry or a local docker-archive file.

source-image name of the repository to retrieve a tag listing from or a local docker-archive file.

Options

See also skopeo(1) for options placed before the subcommand name.

--authfile path
Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using skopeo login.
 If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using docker login.
--creds username[:password]
for accessing the registry.
--cert-dir path
Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the registry.
--help,  -h
Print usage statement
--no-creds
Access the registry anonymously.
--registry-token Bearer token
Bearer token for accessing the registry.
--retry-times
The number of times to retry. Retry wait time will be exponentially increased based on the number of failed attempts.
--tls-verify=bool
Require HTTPS and verify certificates when talking to the container registry or daemon. Default to registry.conf setting.
--username
The username to access the registry.
--password
The password to access the registry.

Repository Names

Repository names are transport-specific references as each transport may have its own concept of a "repository" and "tags".

This commands refers to repositories using a transport:details format. The following formats are supported:

docker://docker-repository-reference
 A repository in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API V2". By default, uses the authorization state in either $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers/auth.json, which is set using (skopeo login). If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using (docker login).
 A docker-repository-reference is of the form: registryhost:port/repositoryname which is similar to an image-reference but with no tag or digest allowed as the last component (e.g no :latest or @sha256:xyz)

  Examples of valid docker-repository-references:
    "docker.io/myuser/myrepo"
    "docker.io/nginx"
    "docker.io/library/fedora"
    "localhost:5000/myrepository"

  Examples of invalid references:
    "docker.io/nginx:latest"
    "docker.io/myuser/myimage:v1.0"
    "docker.io/myuser/myimage@sha256:f48c4cc192f4c3c6a069cb5cca6d0a9e34d6076ba7c214fd0cc3ca60e0af76bb"

**docker-archive:path[:docker-reference]
 more than one images were stored in a docker save-formatted file.

Examples

Docker Transport

To get the list of tags in the "fedora" repository from the docker.io registry (the repository name expands to "library/fedora" per docker transport canonical form):

$ skopeo list-tags docker://docker.io/fedora
{
    "Repository": "docker.io/library/fedora",
    "Tags": [
        "20",
        "21",
        "22",
        "23",
        "24",
        "25",
        "26-modular",
        "26",
        "27",
        "28",
        "29",
        "30",
        "31",
        "32",
        "branched",
        "heisenbug",
        "latest",
        "modular",
        "rawhide"
    ]
}

To list the tags in a local host docker/distribution registry on port 5000, in this case for the "fedora" repository:

$ skopeo list-tags docker://localhost:5000/fedora
{
    "Repository": "localhost:5000/fedora",
    "Tags": [
        "latest",
        "30",
        "31"
    ]
}

Docker-archive Transport

To list the tags in a local docker-archive file:

$ skopeo list-tags docker-archive:/tmp/busybox.tar.gz
{
    "Tags": [
        "busybox:1.28.3"
    ]
}

Also supports more than one tags in an archive:

$ skopeo list-tags docker-archive:/tmp/docker-two-images.tar.gz
{
    "Tags": [
        "example.com/empty:latest",
        "example.com/empty/but:different"
    ]
}

Will include a source-index entry for each untagged image:

$ skopeo list-tags docker-archive:/tmp/four-tags-with-an-untag.tar
{
    "Tags": [
        "image1:tag1",
        "image2:tag2",
        "@2",
        "image4:tag4"
    ]
}
