Container Registry

Your builds get direct access to your private container registry at nscr.io. This seamless integration eliminates the complexity of registry authentication while providing enterprise-grade performance and global availability.

From Namespace instances

No configuration changes required

When running your CI on Namespace, access to nscr.io is already configured. Each Namespace workload embeds short-lived credentials that grant direct access to the container registry.

$ docker pull nscr.io/<workspace-id>/app:latest

Your workspace identifier can be found in the Dashboard.

Local Docker integration

Using the CLI, you can also configure your local Docker to access nscr.io.

Configure your Docker

$ nsc docker login

The command above will update your local Docker configuration and print your container registry address (e.g. nscr.io/8enum0hp1l5ii). If you want to obtain the address without updating your Docker configuration, run nsc workspace describe.

Build and push

$ docker build . -t nscr.io/8enum0hp1l5ii/app:latest --push

Observability

Our Dashboard provides a holistic overview over the images that you have pushed to nscr.io. You can understand access patterns per tag, and the evolution of image sizes over time.

container image registry

When looking at a single image tag, you can see the historic versions, and which are still being pulled today. For multi-platform images, you can also understand how much each platform contributes to the combined image size.

Build and Push in One Command

When doing quick image iterations, our CLI offers a simple command to build and push an image without reconfiguring your local Docker client.

Build and push

$ nsc build . --name app --push

That's it! With a single command, you've built an image using a high-performance, remote builder and pushed it to nscr.io.

Access Controls

Images pushed to nscr.io are shared with your workspace by default, allowing for frictionless collaboration. Namespace supports fine-grained access controls, allowing you to flexibly restrict or grant image access.
