Container Hub

Container Hub is a lightweight, browser-based user interface for exploring and managing Docker/OCI container registries. It provides a simple front-end for browsing repositories, viewing tags and manifests, and performing delete operations against registries configured via environment variables.

Key Features

• Browse repositories, tags, and manifests in Docker/OCI registries
• Support for multiple registries via suffixed environment variables
• Optional basic-auth configuration using base64-encoded credentials
• Support for GitHub Container Registry (GHCR) with PAT-based auth
• Deployable as a container (image published to a container registry) and via Docker Compose or Helm for Kubernetes

Use Cases

• Quickly explore the contents and tags of private or local container registries
• Manage and delete image manifests/tags from a simple UI during maintenance
• Run a lightweight registry dashboard in development or small production clusters (via Docker Compose or Helm)

Limitations and Considerations

• Current versions note scaling limitations when listing repositories with many tags; the author is tracking a v1.0.0 milestone to address performance for large repositories (e.g., repos with 100+ tags).
• GHCR support requires a GitHub Personal Access Token with appropriate package permissions when configured; careful permission selection is necessary for deletion operations.

Container Hub is intended as a minimal, self-hostable registry UI for teams and individuals who need a lightweight way to inspect and manage container registries. It is actively developed and accepts contributions and issues for feature requests and performance improvements.
