Standalone Application

Overview

This standalone application is based on Electron which encapsulates the whole docker-registry-ui in a single executable, that can be run on your local computer.

Building

Check out or download the repository, open a terminal at the checkout directory, download the dependencies and build the web app:
```
npm install
npm run build
```
After building the web application, navigate to the electron directory and execute following commands to build the executable:
```
cd examples/electron
npm install
npm run dist
```
Run the application:
```
npm start
```

If you encounter any issues, please check the troubleshooting below.

Password Protected Registries

If you want to interact with password protected Docker Registries, this application will use the keystore of your system to gather the credentials for accessing the Registry.

This is accomplished with the keytar package. In concjunction with keytar, the integrated credential helper supports you with managing the credentials to the Registries.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The application does not start with npm start and exits with following message:

[7742:0509/001117.199224:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that ./node_modules/electron dist/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.

Solution: Add proper rights to the chrome-sanbox

sudo chown root ./node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox
sudo chmod 4755 ./node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox

Problem: I am on Linux and to not have any password wallet for keytar.

Solution: Install following dependencies according to the official setup instructions for keytar on Linux:
- Debian/Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libsecret-1-dev
- Red Hat-based: sudo yum install libsecret-devel
- Arch Linux: sudo pacman -S libsecret
