# Recipes You will find here a list of "recipes", end-to-end scenarios for exotic or otherwise advanced use-cases. Most users are not expected to have a use for these. ## Requirements You should have followed entirely the basic [deployment guide](deploying.md). If you have not, please take the time to do so. At this point, it's assumed that: * you understand Docker security requirements, and how to configure your docker engines properly * you have installed Docker Compose * it's HIGHLY recommended that you get a certificate from a known CA instead of self-signed certificates * inside the current directory, you have a X509 `domain.crt` and `domain.key`, for the CN `myregistrydomain.com` * be sure you have stopped and removed any previously running registry (typically `docker stop registry && docker rm -v registry`) ## The List * [using Apache as an authenticating proxy](apache.md) * [using Nginx as an authenticating proxy](nginx.md) * [running a Registry on OS X](osx-setup-guide.md) * [hacking the registry: build instructions](building.md) * [mirror the Docker Hub](mirror.md)
