Public repository of rkt application containers?

[Derek Mahar]

Where may I find a public, searchable repository of rkt application containers similar to Docker Hub?

Thank you,

Derek

There isn't exactly an equivalent to dockerhub for rkt yet. Quay.io supports automatic conversion of pushed Docker containers to ACI when called via `rkt fetch`.

In other words, how can I find rkt application containers?

[Seán C. McCord]

As Kyle said:  there isn't any common, public way to search for publicly-available rkt containers in the way that you can do so with Docker Hub.

Part of the reason for this is that there is no corresponding `rkt push` command (yet).  You _can_, however, use any Docker image with rkt.  Since Docker repositories do not have the same verification capabilities as do the manifests for rkt, you generally have to disable such checks when using Docker images.  The exception is for those Docker repositories hosted on Quay.io, which provides a rather flexible rkt-compatible, namespace-oriented verification mechanism.

Any new rkt contain hubs yet since the last reply?

rkt support docker container registries. Any container Docker Engine can run rkt can run: https://coreos.com/rkt/docs/latest/running-docker-images.html
