[Starlingx-discuss] How to avoid DockerHub download rate limit when building StarlingX
Good day, As DockerHub has recently changed its download rate restrictions policy, you may have experienced errors while building StarlingX, similar to: "You have reached your pull rate limit. You may increase the limit by authenticating and upgrading: https://www.docker.com/increase-rate-limit" While the build team is pondering a permanent solution, there are a few steps you can take that *may* alleviate this problem, depending on the network configuration of your build environment: * Register an account with Docker Hub * Use the "--dockerhub-login" command-line option when calling "stx-init-env" to start the build environment (new option that merged recently) * Use "docker login" inside the build container before building app containers Hope this helps, D.
Hi, Thanks Davlet for sharing a workaround. I also asked about alternatives in the #opendev channel. The team hasn’t done an extensive research before deciding with Quay.io. They were considering that service or hosting a registry themselves. The Zuul community already migrated over to Quay, while OpenDev still has some dependencies on Docker that causes delays. I was also pointed at the Sovereign Cloud Stack community, who hosts their own registry, based on Harbor, which is an open source tool: https://sovereigncloudstack.github.io/website/tech/2023/05/30/registry-migra... You can find the entire conversation here: https://meetings.opendev.org/irclogs/%23opendev/%23opendev.2023-07-26.log.ht... In summary, the following alternatives came up so far: - Quay - https://quay.io - Harbor - https://goharbor.io - Nexus Repository - https://www.sonatype.com/products/sonatype-nexus-repository I hope this helps. Best Regards, Ildikó
