The Docker client has the following two limitations:
You cannot use a context path when providing the registry path (e.g
localhost:8082/artifactoryis not valid)Docker will only send basic HTTP authentication when working against an HTTPS host or when using the insecure registry flag
Artifactory offers solutions to these limitations allowing you to create and use any number of Docker registries.
Using a reverse proxy When used, a reverse proxy, maps Docker commands to one of the multiple Docker registries in Artifactory
Without a reverse proxy From version 5.8, Artifactory supports using Docker without the use of a reverse proxy allowing you to create and use multiple Docker registries in Artifactory out-of-the-box.
