4. Creating DockerHub Account

info

DockerHub is a cloud registry where your CI/CD pipeline will automatically push the built Docker images.

Setup Steps​

  1. Go to hub.docker.com.
  2. Create an account, set a unique username, and choose the free plan.
  3. Once logged in, click the Create Repository button.

Create Repository

After creating it, your repository dashboard will look like this:

Repository Dashboard

Naming Convention​

As shown, the repository namespace is hashcodes7/smallkart_customer. Consequently, the Docker image name you build must be identically matched in your CI/CD pipeline configuration: hashcodes7/smallkart_customer:latest

Now that our DockerHub account and repository are created, we are ready to securely connect it to GitHub.
