The next logical step after creating a new image from an existing image is to share it with a select few of your friends, the whole world on Docker Hub, or other Docker registry that you have access to. To push an image to Docker Hub or any other Docker registry, you must have an account there.
This section shows you how to push a Docker image to Docker Hub. To learn how to create your own private Docker registry, check out How To Set Up a Private Docker Registry on Ubuntu 14.04.
To push your image, first log into Docker Hub.
docker login -u docker-registry-username
You’ll be prompted to authenticate using your Docker Hub password. If you specified the correct password, authentication should succeed.
Note: If your Docker registry username is different from the local username you used to create the image, you will have to tag your image with your registry username. For the example given in the last step, you would type:
docker tag sammy/ubuntu-nodejs docker-registry-username/ubuntu-nodejs
Then you may push your own image using:
docker push docker-registry-username/docker-image-name
To push the ubuntu-nodejs image to the sammy repository, the command would be:
docker push sammy/ubuntu-nodejs
The process may take some time to complete as it uploads the images, but when completed, the output will look like this:
Output The push refers to a repository [docker.io/sammy/ubuntu-nodejs] e3fbbfb44187: Pushed 5f70bf18a086: Pushed a3b5c80a4eba: Pushed 7f18b442972b: Pushed 3ce512daaf78: Pushed 7aae4540b42d: Pushed ...
After pushing an image to a registry, it should be listed on your account’s dashboard, like that show in the image below. If a push attempt results in an error of this sort, then you likely did not log in:
Output The push refers to a repository [docker.io/sammy/ubuntu-nodejs] e3fbbfb44187: Preparing 5f70bf18a086: Preparing a3b5c80a4eba: Preparing 7f18b442972b: Preparing 3ce512daaf78: Preparing 7aae4540b42d: Waiting unauthorized: authentication required
Log in with docker login and repeat the push attempt. Then verify that it exists on your Docker Hub repository page. You can now use docker pull sammy/ubuntu-nodejs to pull the image to a new machine and use it to run a new container.
