Nexus 3 OSS - Multi Arch Docker images for Docker repository

Nexus Repository Manager
#1

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the compatibility of the Docker repository in the NXRM 3.

Does the Docker repository include support for multi-arch images? I could not find anything in the
documentation

Thanks in advance for any help

Best regards,
Daniel

Sad to see this has not been answered by Sonatype.
I have the same question.

From the Nexus UI it does not look like it supports multi-arch docker images.
I really hope I am wrong. If not I hope it will come soon (Even if it will be PRO only).

We have need to have a docker image for jdk11 both for Linux, Mac and Windows.
I do not want to create different docker image names for each arch.

I order to build multi-arch it looks like one need to active the docker experimental features.

#3

Support for manifest lists were added in Nexus 3.22.0 which enables multi-arch images.

When referring to the Nexus UI not looking like it supports multi-arch, what specifically are you referring to?

I apologize that this did not make it into our release notes. The JIRA issue can be found at https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/NEXUS-18546
