## Description
|
||||
|
||||
Log in to a registry.
|
||||
Authenticate to a registry.
|
||||
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
You can authenticate to any public or private registry for which you have
|
||||
credentials. Authentication may be required for pulling and pushing images.
|
||||
Other commands, such as `docker scout` and `docker build`, may also require
|
||||
authentication to access subscription-only features or data related to your
|
||||
Docker organization.
|
||||
|
||||
### Login to a self-hosted registry
|
||||
Authentication credentials are stored in the configured [credential
|
||||
store](#credential-stores). If you use Docker Desktop, credentials are
|
||||
automatically saved to the native keychain of your operating system. If you're
|
||||
not using Docker Desktop, you can configure the credential store in the Docker
|
||||
configuration file, which is located at `$HOME/.docker/config.json` on Linux or
|
||||
`%USERPROFILE%/.docker/config.json` on Windows. If you don't configure a
|
||||
credential store, Docker stores credentials in the `config.json` file in a
|
||||
base64-encoded format. This method is less secure than configuring and using a
|
||||
credential store.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to log in to a self-hosted registry you can specify this by
|
||||
adding the server name.
|
||||
`docker login` also supports [credential helpers](#credential-helpers) to help
|
||||
you handle credentials for specific registries.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker login localhost:8080
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Authentication methods
|
||||
|
||||
### <a name="password-stdin"></a> Provide a password using STDIN (--password-stdin)
|
||||
|
||||
To run the `docker login` command non-interactively, you can set the
|
||||
`--password-stdin` flag to provide a password through `STDIN`. Using
|
||||
`STDIN` prevents the password from ending up in the shell's history,
|
||||
or log-files.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example reads a password from a file, and passes it to the
|
||||
`docker login` command using `STDIN`:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ cat ~/my_password.txt | docker login --username foo --password-stdin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Privileged user requirement
|
||||
|
||||
`docker login` requires you to use `sudo` or be `root`, except when:
|
||||
|
||||
- Connecting to a remote daemon, such as a `docker-machine` provisioned `docker engine`.
|
||||
- The user is added to the `docker` group. This will impact the security of your system; the `docker` group is `root` equivalent. See [Docker Daemon Attack Surface](https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/#docker-daemon-attack-surface) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
You can log in to any public or private repository for which you have
|
||||
credentials. When you log in, the command stores credentials in
|
||||
`$HOME/.docker/config.json` on Linux or `%USERPROFILE%/.docker/config.json` on
|
||||
Windows, via the procedure described below.
|
||||
You can authenticate to a registry using a username and access token or
|
||||
password. Docker Hub also supports a web-based sign-in flow, which signs you in
|
||||
to your Docker account without entering your password. For Docker Hub, the
|
||||
`docker login` command uses a device code flow by default, unless the
|
||||
`--username` flag is specified. The device code flow is a secure way to sign
|
||||
in. See [Authenticate to Docker Hub using device code](#authenticate-to-docker-hub-using-device-code).

By default, Docker looks for the native binary on each of the platforms, i.e.

"osxkeychain" on macOS, "wincred" on windows, and "pass" on Linux. A special

||||
case is that on Linux, Docker will fall back to the "secretservice" binary if
|
||||
it cannot find the "pass" binary. If none of these binaries are present, it
|
||||
stores the credentials (i.e. password) in base64 encoding in the config files

The helpers always use the first argument in the command to identify the action.

There are only three possible values for that argument: `store`, `get`, and `erase`.

## Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Authenticate to Docker Hub with web-based login
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the `docker login` command authenticates to Docker Hub, using a
|
||||
device code flow. This flow lets you authenticate to Docker Hub without
|
||||
entering your password. Instead, you visit a URL in your web browser, enter a
|
||||
code, and authenticate.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker login
|
||||
|
||||
USING WEB-BASED LOGIN
|
||||
To sign in with credentials on the command line, use 'docker login -u <username>'
|
||||
|
||||
Your one-time device confirmation code is: LNFR-PGCJ
|
||||
Press ENTER to open your browser or submit your device code here: https://login.docker.com/activate
|
||||
|
||||
Waiting for authentication in the browser…
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After entering the code in your browser, you are authenticated to Docker Hub
|
||||
using the account you're currently signed in with on the Docker Hub website or
|
||||
in Docker Desktop. If you aren't signed in, you are prompted to sign in after
|
||||
entering the device code.
|
||||
|
||||
### Authenticate to a self-hosted registry
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to authenticate to a self-hosted registry you can specify this by
|
||||
adding the server name.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker login registry.example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the `docker login` command assumes that the registry listens on
|
||||
port 443 or 80. If the registry listens on a different port, you can specify it
|
||||
by adding the port number to the server name.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker login registry.example.com:1337
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> Registry addresses should not include URL path components, only the hostname
|
||||
> and (optionally) the port. Registry addresses with URL path components may
|
||||
> result in an error. For example, `docker login registry.example.com/foo/`
|
||||
> is incorrect, while `docker login registry.example.com` is correct.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> The exception to this rule is the Docker Hub registry, which may use the
|
||||
> `/v1/` path component in the address for historical reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
### <a name="username"></a> Authenticate to a registry with a username and password
|
||||
|
||||
To authenticate to a registry with a username and password, you can use the
|
||||
`--username` or `-u` flag. The following example authenticates to Docker Hub
|
||||
with the username `moby`. The password is entered interactively.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker login -u moby
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### <a name="password-stdin"></a> Provide a password using STDIN (--password-stdin)
|
||||
|
||||
To run the `docker login` command non-interactively, you can set the
|
||||
`--password-stdin` flag to provide a password through `STDIN`. Using
|
||||
`STDIN` prevents the password from ending up in the shell's history,
|
||||
or log-files.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example reads a password from a file, and passes it to the
|
||||
`docker login` command using `STDIN`:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ cat ~/my_password.txt | docker login --username foo --password-stdin

||||
```
