Ansible 2 Cloud Automation Cookbook

How it works...

In step 1, we used the Docker image registry and tag 2 to create a Docker container for setting up Docker Registry. We exposed port 5000 on the Docker container and mapped that port using the parameter ports as 5000:5000, which signify that port 5000 on the host will be mapped to port 5000 on the Docker container.

We should note that the registry application inside our container listens on port 5000.

In step 2, we used Docker commands to test local the Docker Registry by pushing an image to the local registry.
