Project Harbor is an enterprise-class registry server, which extends the open source Docker Registry server by adding the functionality usually required by an enterprise, such as security, replication and management. Harbor is primarily designed to be a private registry - providing the needed security and control that enterprises require. It also helps minimize bandwidth usage, which is helpful to both improve productivity (local network access) as well as performance (for those with poor internet connectivity).
* **Role based access control**: Users and Docker repositories are organized via "projects", a user can have different permission for images under a project.
* **Image replication**: Images can be replicated(synchronized) between multiple registry instances. Great for load balancing and distributed data centers.
Harbor is self-contained and can be easily deployed via docker-compose (Quick-Start steps below). Refer to the [Installation and Configuration Guide](docs/installation_guide.md) for detailed information.
2. Edit the file **Deploy/harbor.cfg**, make necessary configuration changes such as hostname, admin password and mail server. Refer to [Installation and Configuration Guide](docs/installation_guide.md) for more info.
_If everything worked properly, you should be able to open a browser to visit the admin portal at http://reg.yourdomain.com . Note that the default administrator username/password are admin/Harbor12345 ._
Log in to the admin portal and create a new project, e.g. `myproject`. You can then use docker commands to login and push images (By default, the registry server listens on port 80):
If you are upgrading Harbor from an older version with existing data, you may need to migrate the data to fit the new database schema. For more details please refer to [Data Migration Guide](docs/migration_guide.md) .
For those who don't want to clone the source, or need to install Harbor on a server not connected to the Internet - there is a pre-built installation package available. For details on how to download and use this installation package, please refer to [Installation and Configuration Guide](docs/installation_guide.md) .
