Private Registries

Convox can pull base images from private registries during the build process.

When to Use Private Registries

Registered credentials are used during convox build and convox deploy to authenticate with private Docker registries when pulling base images specified in your Dockerfile. This enables your builds to access images from registries that require authentication, such as Docker Hub (for rate limit avoidance), Amazon ECR, GitHub Container Registry, or any other private registry.
