Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

A better, faster approach to downloading docker images without docker-pull: Skopeo
I decided to go searching for an alternative means to pull a docker image. In my search I discovered Skopeo, an alternative method to download Docker images that proved to be surprisingly effective. It not only downloaded the image faster, it also allowed me to save my image in a tar file, which means you can pull an image on one system and share that image to another system, loading it easily to docker instance on that system. This can be very beneficial if you have multiple systems and don't want to download an image multiple times.

[OC] Update: dockcheck - Checking updates for docker images without pulling - automatically update containers by choice.
But I'd suggest looking into if it's solved by other tools already, like regclient/regclient and their regsync features or something like containers/skopeo.

Wrapping Go CLI tools in another CLI?
Have a use case where we have a CLI (built with cobra) for our dev teams which can execute common tasks. One of those tasks we want to implement is to copy docker images from the internet to our internal registry. A tool such as skopeo can do this and much more. Instead of essentially re-writing the functionality directly into our CLI we'd like to embed it. This would also negate the need for the dev teams to manage multiple CLI tools.

Rails on Docker · Fly
Self hoisting here, I put this together to make it easier to generate single (extra) layer docker images without needing a docker agent, capabilities, chroot, etc: https://github.com/andrewbaxter/dinker
Caveat: it doesn't work on Fly.io. They seem to be having some issue with OCI manifests: https://github.com/containers/skopeo/issues/1881 . They're also having issues with new docker versions pushing from CI: https://community.fly.io/t/deploying-to-fly-via-github-actio... ... the timing of this post seems weird.
FWIW the article says
> create a Docker image, also known as an OCI image
I don't think this is quite right. From my investigation, Docker and OCI images are basically content addressed trees, starting with a root manifest that points to other files and their hashes (root -> images -> layers -> layer configs + files). The OCI manifests and configs are separate to Docker manifests and configs and basically Docker will support both side by side.

How are you building docker images for Apple M1?
skopeo is another tool worth looking into. we've started deploying amd and arm nodes into our k8s clusters, and this tool was incredibly easy to build around for getting multi-arch images into our container registry.

Get list of image architectures
I would use skopeo, the tool is quite handy for working with remote images. https://github.com/containers/skopeo

Implement DevSecOps to Secure your CI/CD pipeline
Using distroless images not only reduces the size of the container image it also reduces the surface attack. The need for container image signing is because even with the distroless images there is a chance of facing some security threats such as receiving a malicious image. We can use cosign or skopeo for container signing and verifying. You can read more about securing containers with Cosign and Distroless Images in this blog.

ImagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent - (image doesn’t exist in repo) - Is it possible to pull the micro service image from an EKS node and then push to repo?
Look at using tools like skopeo or crane

Monitoring image updates when not using :latest!
You could try some commandline tool like skopeo to fetch the image tags regularly and do some shell magic to notify you on any change you want

Containers without Docker (podman, buildah, and skopeo)
This is what Podman, an open-source daemonless and rootless container engine, was developed with in mind. Podman runs using the runC container runtime process, directly on the Linux kernel, and launches containers and pods as child processes. In addition, it was developed for the Docker developer, with most commands and syntax seamlessly mirroring Docker's. Buildah, an image builder, and Skopeo, the image utility tool, are both complimentary to Podman as well, and extend the range of operations able to be performed.
Diun
- Is there a tool to monitor container images version locally and notify if there are updates?
-
PSA - Run "docker image prune" once in a while.
Thanks, I used to use it. I moved to using diun to just notify of updates but not apply them though.
-
How you guys update your docker images? Noob here
https://crazymax.dev/diun/ and docker compose

Update containers/images to latest version in Docker Desktop (windows)
Similar to Watchtower but without the option to auto-update containers, just notifying is diun. But imo it does that better and more reliable than Watchtower does. You can get notified by Email, Discord, Pushover, Telegram and many more options.
-
Seatch for apps updates notifier app
If your apps are container images, then there are tools like diun, watchtower and whatsupdocker, those can watch the image repository (like Docker Hub) and notify you if a new/updated image has been found. Some can even download and auto-update for you, but that comes at some risk of course.
-
Watchtower Notify Only
You might want to have a look at https://crazymax.dev/diun/ which is purpose built for what you're trying to do (notify when an update is available, but not install).
- [Self Hosted] Existe-t-il un service montrant des mises à jour Docker Container dans la page Visual Fashion / Web Splash?

Unable to pull latest image
Watchtower is inferior to a project like DIUN this way. Because with double you can actually be notified by newer image versions and act accordingly. But automatic updates (which latest is aswell) are bad practice.
-
Is there a centralized Docker Container Management for updating containers?
diun is very similar to that, but it doesnt auto-update, just notifies but does that very well imo.

Docker Swarm: automatically update service when new image is released
I use https://crazymax.dev/diun/ to send notifications of new images. I also hook it into webbooks with CI for mirroring images, but you should be able to use something like portainer webhooks to auto pull images.
What are some alternatives?
go-containerregistry - Go library and CLIs for working with container registries
watchtower - A process for automating Docker container base image updates.
kaniko - Build Container Images In Kubernetes
