Setting up own docker registry server behind NGinx Reverse Proxy

Docker Engine
1

Hi Team,

I am trying to setup my own registry server on Digital Ocean and I already have a dedicated Nginx server (Non through Docker) .

Can I use the same for my docker registry server with basic authentication and SSL security?

By default docker-registry server listens on port 5000? And I can use my nginx server as a reverse proxy server forwarding traffic to this docker registry server?

TIA

You could do that, but if you want to have a more advanced registry with more complex user handling and web interface, you can use Portus or Harbor. I started with Portus, but I think Harbor is better.
