README

tarball

GoDoc

This package produces tarballs that can consumed via docker load. Note that this is a different format from the legacy tarballs that are produced by docker save, but this package is still able to read the legacy tarballs produced by docker save.

Usage

package main

import (
	"os"

	"github.com/google/go-containerregistry/pkg/name"
	"github.com/google/go-containerregistry/pkg/v1/tarball"
)

func main() {
	// Read a tarball from os.Args[1] that contains ubuntu.
	tag, err := name.NewTag("ubuntu")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	img, err := tarball.ImageFromPath(os.Args[1], &tag)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	// Write that tarball to os.Args[2] with a different tag.
	newTag, err := name.NewTag("ubuntu:newest")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	f, err := os.Create(os.Args[2])
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer f.Close()

	if err := tarball.Write(newTag, img, f); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

Structure

Let's look at what happens when we write out a tarball:

ubuntu:latest
$ crane pull ubuntu ubuntu.tar && mkdir ubuntu && tar xf ubuntu.tar -C ubuntu && rm ubuntu.tar

There are a couple interesting files here.

manifest.json is the entrypoint: a list of tarball.Descriptors that describe the images contained in this tarball.

For each image, this has the RepoTags (how it was pulled), a Config file that points to the image's config file, a list of Layers, and (optionally) LayerSources.

$ jq < ubuntu/manifest.json
[
  {
    "Config": "sha256:72300a873c2ca11c70d0c8642177ce76ff69ae04d61a5813ef58d40ff66e3e7c",
    "RepoTags": [
      "ubuntu"
    ],
    "Layers": [
      "423ae2b273f4c17ceee9e8482fa8d071d90c7d052ae208e1fe4963fceb3d6954.tar.gz",
      "de83a2304fa1f7c4a13708a0d15b9704f5945c2be5cbb2b3ed9b2ccb718d0b3d.tar.gz",

    ]
  }
]

The config file and layers are exactly what you would expect, and match the registry representations of the same artifacts. You'll notice that the manifest.json contains similar information as the registry manifest, but isn't quite the same:

$ crane manifest ubuntu@sha256:0925d086715714114c1988f7c947db94064fd385e171a63c07730f1fa014e6f9

      },
      {
         "mediaType": "application/vnd.docker.image.rootfs.diff.tar.gzip",
         "size": 852,
         "digest": "sha256:f9a83bce3af0648efaa60b9bb28225b09136d2d35d0bed25ac764297076dec1b"

      }
   ]
}

This makes it difficult to maintain image digests when roundtripping images through the tarball format, so it's not a great format if you care about provenance.

The ubuntu example didn't have any LayerSources -- let's look at another image that does.

A couple things to note about this manifest.json versus the other:

  • The RepoTags field is a bit weird here. hello-world is a multi-platform image, so We had to pull this image by digest, since we're (I'm) on amd64/linux and wanted to grab a windows image. Since the tarball format expects a tag under RepoTags, and we didn't pull by tag, we replace the digest with a sentinel i-was-a-digest "tag" to appease docker.
  • The LayerSources has enough information to reconstruct the foreign layers pointer when pushing/pulling from the registry. For legal reasons, microsoft doesn't want anyone but them to serve windows base images, so the mediaType here indicates a "foreign" or "non-distributable" layer with an URL for where you can download it from microsoft (see the OCI image-spec).

We can look at what's in the registry to explain both of these things:

$ crane manifest hello-world:nanoserver | jq .

  "manifests": [

      "digest": "sha256:63c287625c2b0b72900e562de73c0e381472a83b1b39217aef3856cd398eca0b",

Functions

func CalculateSize added in v0.2.0

func CalculateSize(refToImage map[name.Reference]v1.Image) (size int64, err error)

CalculateSize calculates the expected complete size of the output tar file

func Image

func Image(opener Opener, tag *name.Tag) (v1.Image, error)

Image exposes an image from the tarball at the provided path.

func ImageFromPath

func ImageFromPath(path string, tag *name.Tag) (v1.Image, error)

ImageFromPath returns a v1.Image from a tarball located on path.

func LayerFromFile

func LayerFromFile(path string, opts ...LayerOption) (v1.Layer, error)

LayerFromFile returns a v1.Layer given a tarball

func LayerFromOpener

func LayerFromOpener(opener Opener, opts ...LayerOption) (v1.Layer, error)

LayerFromOpener returns a v1.Layer given an Opener function. The Opener may return either an uncompressed tarball (common), or a compressed tarball (uncommon).

When using this in conjunction with something like remote.Write the uncompressed path may end up gzipping things multiple times:

  1. Compute the layer SHA256
  2. Upload the compressed layer.

Since gzip can be expensive, we support an option to memoize the compression that can be passed here: tarball.WithCompressedCaching

func LayerFromReader deprecated

func LayerFromReader(reader io.Reader, opts ...LayerOption) (v1.Layer, error)

LayerFromReader returns a v1.Layer given a io.Reader.

The reader's contents are read and buffered to a temp file in the process.

Deprecated: Use LayerFromOpener or stream.NewLayer instead, if possible.

func MultiRefWrite

func MultiRefWrite(refToImage map[name.Reference]v1.Image, w io.Writer, opts ...WriteOption) error

MultiRefWrite writes the contents of each image to the provided writer, in the compressed format. The contents are written in the following format: One manifest.json file at the top level containing information about several images. One file for each layer, named after the layer's SHA. One file for the config blob, named after its SHA.

func MultiRefWriteToFile

func MultiRefWriteToFile(p string, refToImage map[name.Reference]v1.Image, opts ...WriteOption) error

MultiRefWriteToFile writes in the compressed format to a tarball, on disk. This is just syntactic sugar wrapping tarball.MultiRefWrite with a new file.

func MultiWrite

func MultiWrite(tagToImage map[name.Tag]v1.Image, w io.Writer, opts ...WriteOption) error

MultiWrite writes the contents of each image to the provided writer, in the compressed format. The contents are written in the following format: One manifest.json file at the top level containing information about several images. One file for each layer, named after the layer's SHA. One file for the config blob, named after its SHA.

func MultiWriteToFile

func MultiWriteToFile(p string, tagToImage map[name.Tag]v1.Image, opts ...WriteOption) error

MultiWriteToFile writes in the compressed format to a tarball, on disk. This is just syntactic sugar wrapping tarball.MultiWrite with a new file.

func WithCompressedCaching added in v0.3.0

func WithCompressedCaching(l *layer)

WithCompressedCaching is a functional option that overrides the logic for accessing the compressed bytes to memoize the result and avoid expensive repeated gzips.

func WithEstargz deprecated added in v0.3.0

func WithEstargz(l *layer)

WithEstargz is a functional option that explicitly enables estargz support.

Deprecated: WithEstargz is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.

func Write

func Write(ref name.Reference, img v1.Image, w io.Writer, opts ...WriteOption) error

Write is a wrapper to write a single image and tag to a tarball.

func WriteToFile

func WriteToFile(p string, ref name.Reference, img v1.Image, opts ...WriteOption) error

WriteToFile writes in the compressed format to a tarball, on disk. This is just syntactic sugar wrapping tarball.Write with a new file.

Types

type Descriptor

type Descriptor struct {
	Config   string
	RepoTags []string
	Layers   []string

	// Tracks foreign layer info. Key is DiffID.
	LayerSources map[v1.Hash]v1.Descriptor `json:",omitempty"`
}

Descriptor stores the manifest data for a single image inside a `docker save` tarball.

type LayerOption

type LayerOption func(*layer)

LayerOption applies options to layer

func WithCompression added in v0.13.0

func WithCompression(comp compression.Compression) LayerOption

WithCompression is a functional option for overriding the default compression algorithm used for compressing uncompressed tarballs. Please note that WithCompression(compression.ZStd) should be used in conjunction with WithMediaType(types.OCILayerZStd)

func WithCompressionLevel

func WithCompressionLevel(level int) LayerOption

WithCompressionLevel is a functional option for overriding the default compression level used for compressing uncompressed tarballs.

func WithEstargzOptions deprecated added in v0.3.0

func WithEstargzOptions(opts ...estargz.Option) LayerOption

WithEstargzOptions is a functional option that allow the caller to pass through estargz.Options to the underlying compression layer. This is only meaningful when estargz is enabled.

Deprecated: WithEstargz is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.

func WithMediaType added in v0.9.0

func WithMediaType(mt types.MediaType) LayerOption

WithMediaType is a functional option for overriding the layer's media type.

type Manifest

type Manifest []Descriptor

Manifest represents the manifests of all images as the `manifest.json` file in a `docker save` tarball.

ComputeManifest get the manifest.json that will be written to the tarball for multiple references

func LoadManifest added in v0.6.0

func LoadManifest(opener Opener) (Manifest, error)

LoadManifest load manifest

type Opener

type Opener func() (io.ReadCloser, error)

Opener is a thunk for opening a tar file.

type WriteOption func(*writeOptions) error

WriteOption a function option to pass to Write()

func WithProgress

func WithProgress(updates chan<- v1.Update) WriteOption

WithProgress create a WriteOption for passing to Write() that enables a channel to receive updates as they are downloaded and written to disk.

Example
package main

import (
	"errors"
	"fmt"
	"io"
	"os"

	v1 "github.com/google/go-containerregistry/pkg/v1"
	"github.com/google/go-containerregistry/pkg/v1/tarball"
)

func main() {
	// buffered channel to make the example test easier
	c := make(chan v1.Update, 200)
	// Make a tempfile for tarball writes.
	fp, err := os.CreateTemp("", "")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Printf("error creating temp file: %v\n", err)
		return
	}
	defer fp.Close()
	defer os.Remove(fp.Name())

	img, err := tarball.ImageFromPath("testdata/test_image_1.tar", nil)
	go func() {
		_ = tarball.WriteToFile(fp.Name(), nil, img, tarball.WithProgress(c))
	}()
	for update := range c {
		switch {
		case update.Error != nil && errors.Is(update.Error, io.EOF):
			fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "receive error message: %v\n", err)
			fmt.Printf("%d/%d", update.Complete, update.Total)

			return
		case update.Error != nil:
			fmt.Printf("error writing tarball: %v\n", update.Error)
			return
		default:
			fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "receive update: %#v\n", update)
		}
	}
}
