The Container Analysis Project

An application to gather information about images and containers on DockerHub and output this helpful info into a CSV file.

This script will gather information from public data sources. In order to gather information online, you will have to authenticate with the websites. This is why a user.yaml file is required but is not stored in this repo.

NOTE: currently only supports dockerhub repository

How to Run it

Create a user.yaml

A yaml file containing creditentials for your repositories (i.e. dockerhub). For example:

registries:
  hub.docker.com:
    ibmdev: MTAwecVyZC0=

The user.yaml file is required to execute the script.

Install libraries

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Execute script

python3 get-image-info.py user.yaml

After execution is complete, you can view the results.csv file

A new directory called Applications/ will exist with more info about the Applications and Images.

Please note this script may not print out every result... or correctly. values.yaml are specific to each Application and so they are all written differently.

Commandline Options

python get-image-info.py --help

You can add your own index.yaml from a Helm Chart if you like.

By default, WARNING level logging is enabled. Otherwise run: Output is saved to a file called container-output.log in same directory as get-image-info.py.

How To Gather Info on dockerhub.com

Utilizing DockerHub v2 API this will send an HTTP request to a registry like hub.docker.com and receive a JSON file in return. Read about it here.

This example has no tags for an image https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/ppc64le/couchdb/tags/?page_size=100

This example has 1 tag for an image https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/ppc64le/elk/tags/?page_size=100

This example is the most detailed information we can get for a specific image tag https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/ppc64le/ibmjava/tags/sdk/
