Features03 Images

Pull, build, update. Watch every layer.

Pull with per-layer progress, see when a newer version is out, and bring the containers that use it along. Build, tag and push without leaving the window.

What you can do

Pull with progress

Every layer gets its own progress bar. Docker Hub is searched while you type the name.

Private registries

Pull with the credentials you already stored with docker login.

Newer version available

The app checks the registry and flags images that have a newer version.

Bring containers along

After an update, recreate the containers still running on the old image, compose ones included.

Run from an image

Start a container from an image, and pick its network and alias.

Build

Build an image from a folder with a Dockerfile, with the build output as it happens.

Tag and push

Tag, remove a tag and push, each after a confirmation.

Layers

See what every layer of an image costs, and where the size comes from.

Save and load

Save an image as a file and read it back in on another machine.

Updates

Update the image, then catch up the containers.

A newer image does nothing until the containers are recreated. The app shows which containers still run the old one, and for a compose project it updates the whole project at once, renewing only what changed.
