Configure Harbor User Settings at the Command Line	65

From release 1.8.0 onwards, user settings are configured separately from the system settings. You do not configure user settings in the harbor.yml file, but rather in the Harbor interface or via HTTP requests.

Example Configuration Commands:

Add a new user in the local database:

curl -X PUT -u "<username>:<password>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -ki <Harbor Server URL>/api/configurations -d'{"<item_name>":"<item_value>"}'

Get the current configuration:

curl -u "<username>:<password>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -ki <Harbor Server URL>/api/configurations

Update Harbor to use LDAP authentication:

Command

curl -X PUT -u "<username>:<password>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -ki https://harbor.sample.domain/api/configurations -d'{"auth_mode":"ldap_auth"}'

Output

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Set-Cookie: sid=a5803a1265e2b095cf65ce1d8bbd79b1; Path=/; HttpOnly

Restrict project creation to Harbor administrators:

Command

curl -X PUT -u "<username>:<password>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -ki https://harbor.sample.domain/api/configurations -d'{"project_creation_restriction":"adminonly"}'

Update the token expiration time:
