Question 84201 in Docker Question posted in
The official documentation can be found here.

Configure gitlab-runner, docker/compose and docker:dind to use an artifactory docker image hub mirror

There are various questions on how to use docker or docker-compose from the gitlab-ci.

So I am using the following Docker-Images for my quest:

  • gitlab/gitlab-runner:latest (as the gitlab-runner instance)
  • docker/compose:1.29.2 (as gitlab-ci.yml executor image)
  • docker:dind (as service)
image: docker/compose:1.29.2

variables:
  DOCKER_HOST: tcp://docker:2375/
  DOCKER_HOSTNAME: myhost
  DOCKER_DRIVER: overlay2
  DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR: ""

services:
  - name: docker:dind

stages:
  - composeTest

composeTest:
  stage: composeTest
  tags:
    - compose
  script:
    - ping -c 3 docker
    - docker-compose --version
    - docker-compose up -d
    - docker-compose down

Currently I disabled tls, I will work on this later. That is not content of this question!

In this script, the first two commands are successfully processed, but docker-compose up -d fails when it tries to pull the required images.

On my server I also have a .docker/config.json file with content like

{
        "auths": {
                "local.artifactory.corp.net": {
                        "auth": "VERY SECURE KEY!"
                }
        },
        "proxy": {
                "remoteurl": "local.artifactory.corp.net"
        }
}

I figured, I need this config.json available in the docker-container, that pulls the required images.

  • But which of the three afforementioned containers is it?
  • (How) can I get it there? (Without maintaining a custom version of it?)

    Actually I was wrong and didn't need the config.json I found.

    Instead I needed a /etc/docker/daemon.json in the docker:dind-image with a line like

    "registry-mirrors": ["https://local.artifactory.corp.net"]

    I did not find a solution yet, on how to get it there, without creating a new image.

    All you really need to do is run docker login with your registry address/username/password.

    something like this

    composeTest:
  before_script:
    - docker login local.artifactory.corp.net -u derm -p $ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD

    If you use SSO to sign into Artifactory, you may have to generate a token to use as your password.

    There are a few techniques to authenticate to a private registry from GitLab CI. You can also take advantage of DOCKER_AUTH_CONFIG environment variable mechanics, credential helpers, etc. This is explained in depth in the GitLab documentation.
