I guess the best way would be to have a self-hosted pull-through registry with a cache. This way you'd have all required images ready even when dockerhub is offline. Unfortunately that does not help in an outage because you cannot fill the cache now.

You might still have it on your dev box or build box docker image ls docker tag name/name:version your.registry/here/name/name:version docker push your.registry/here/name/name:version

This saved me. I was able to push image from one of my nodes. Thank you.

I didn't even really realize it was a SPOF in my deploy chain. I figured at least most of it would be cached locally. Nope, can't deploy. I don't work on mission-critical software (nor do I have anyone to answer to) so it's not the end of the world, but has me wondering what my alternate deployment routes are. Is there a mirror registry with all the same basic images? (node/alpine) I suppose the fact that I didn't no…

It's a bit stupid that I can't restart (on Coolify) my container, because pulling the image fails, even though I am already running it, so I do have the image, I just need to restart the Node.js process...

Nevermind, I used the terminal, docker ps to find the container and docker restart , without going through Coolify.

Basically all my Docker images were being built from Github repos anyways, so I just switched to Github's container registry.

GHCR authentication is just broken. They still require the deprecated personal access tokens.

I was publishing public containers on Docker Hub, and I'm publishing public containers on GHCR.

I was hoping google cloud artifact registry pull-thru caching would help. Alas, it does not. I can see an image tag available in the cache in my project on cloud.google.com, but after attempting to pull from the cache (and failing) the image is deleted from GAR :(

I’m able to pull by the digest, even images that are now missing a tag.
