docker push setup

This page describes the legacy CDM implementation, which will be deprecated in an upcoming release. We strongly recommend that you transition to the current CDM implementation as soon as possible.

In the deployment environment you’re setting up, Skaffold builds Docker images using the Docker software you’ve installed on your local computer. After it builds the images, Skaffold pushes them to a Docker registry available to your GKE cluster. With the images on the remote Docker registry, Skaffold can orchestrate the ForgeRock Identity Platform, creating containers from the Docker images.

For Skaffold to be able to push the Docker images:

  • Docker must be running on your local computer.

  • Your local computer needs credentials that let Skaffold push the images to the Docker registry available to your cluster.

  • Skaffold needs to know the location of the Docker registry.

Perform the following steps to let Skaffold to push Docker images to a registry accessible to your cluster:

  1. If it’s not already running, start Docker on your local computer. For more information, see the Docker documentation.

  2. Set up a Docker credential helper:

    $ gcloud auth configure-docker
  3. Run the kubectx command to obtain the Kubernetes context.

  4. Configure Skaffold with the Docker registry location for your project and the Kubernetes context. Use your project ID (not your project name) and the Kubernetes context that you obtained in the previous step:

    $ skaffold config set default-repo gcr.io/my-project-ID -k my-kubernetes-context

Next step

You’ve completed all the setup tasks for GKE. Now you’re ready to deploy the platform in your new cluster:
