Configuring a registry

Explains how to configure a registry

registry, on-prem, images, tags, repository, distribution, configuration

Registry Configuration Reference

The Registry configuration is based on a YAML file, detailed below. While it comes with sane default values out of the box, you are heavily encouraged to review it exhaustively before moving your systems to production.

Override specific configuration options

In a typical setup where you run your Registry from the official image, you can specify a configuration variable from the environment by passing -e arguments to your docker run stanza, or from within a Dockerfile using the ENV instruction.

To override a configuration option, create an environment variable named REGISTRY_variable where variable is the name of the configuration option and the _ (underscore) represents indention levels. For example, you can configure the rootdirectory of the filesystem storage backend:

storage:
  filesystem:
    rootdirectory: /var/lib/registry

To override this value, set an environment variable like this:

REGISTRY_STORAGE_FILESYSTEM_ROOTDIRECTORY=/somewhere

This variable overrides the /var/lib/registry value to the /somewhere directory.

NOTE: It is highly recommended to create a base configuration file with which environment variables can be used to tweak individual values. Overriding configuration sections with environment variables is not recommended.

Overriding the entire configuration file

If the default configuration is not a sound basis for your usage, or if you are having issues overriding keys from the environment, you can specify an alternate YAML configuration file by mounting it as a volume in the container.

Typically, create a new configuration file from scratch, and call it config.yml, then:

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --restart=always --name registry \
  -v `pwd`/config.yml:/etc/docker/registry/config.yml \
  registry:2

You can (and probably should) use this as a starting point.

List of configuration options

This section lists all the registry configuration options. Some options in the list are mutually exclusive. So, make sure to read the detailed reference information about each option that appears later in this page.

In some instances a configuration option is optional but it contains child options marked as required. This indicates that you can omit the parent with all its children. However, if the parent is included, you must also include all the children marked required.

version

version: 0.1

The version option is required. It specifies the configuration's version. It is expected to remain a top-level field, to allow for a consistent version check before parsing the remainder of the configuration file.

log

The log subsection configures the behavior of the logging system. The logging system outputs everything to stdout. You can adjust the granularity and format with this configuration section.

log:
  accesslog:
    disabled: true
  level: debug
  formatter: text
  fields:
    service: registry
    environment: staging

Parameter	Required	Description
`level`	no	Sets the sensitivity of logging output. Permitted values are `error`, `warn`, `info` and `debug`. The default is `info`.
`formatter`	no	This selects the format of logging output. The format primarily affects how keyed attributes for a log line are encoded. Options are `text`, `json` or `logstash`. The default is `text`.
`fields`	no	A map of field names to values. These are added to every log line for the context. This is useful for identifying log messages source after being mixed in other systems.

accesslog

accesslog:
  disabled: true

Within log, accesslog configures the behavior of the access logging system. By default, the access logging system outputs to stdout in Combined Log Format. Access logging can be disabled by setting the boolean flag disabled to true.

hooks

hooks:
  - type: mail
    levels:
      - panic
    options:
      smtp:
        addr: smtp.sendhost.com:25
        username: sendername
        password: password
        insecure: true
      from: name@sendhost.com
      to:
        - name@receivehost.com

The hooks subsection configures the logging hooks' behavior. This subsection includes a sequence handler which you can use for sending mail, for example. Refer to loglevel to configure the level of messages printed.

loglevel

DEPRECATED: Please use log instead.

loglevel: debug

Permitted values are error, warn, info and debug. The default is info.

The storage option is required and defines which storage backend is in use. You must configure one backend; if you configure more, the registry returns an error. You can choose any of these backend storage drivers:

Storage driver	Description
`filesystem`	Uses the local disk to store registry files. It is ideal for development and may be appropriate for some small-scale production applications. See the driver's reference documentation.
`azure`	Uses Microsoft's Azure Blob Storage. See the driver's reference documentation.
`gcs`	Uses Google Cloud Storage. See the driver's reference documentation.
`s3`	Uses Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3) and compatible Storage Services. See the driver's reference documentation.
`swift`	Uses Openstack Swift object storage. See the driver's reference documentation.
`oss`	Uses Aliyun OSS for object storage. See the driver's reference documentation.

For purely tests purposes, you can use the inmemory storage driver. If you would like to run a registry from volatile memory, use the filesystem driver on a ramdisk.

If you are deploying a registry on Windows, be aware that a Windows volume mounted from the host is not recommended. Instead, you can use a S3, or Azure, backing data-store. If you do use a Windows volume, you must ensure that the PATH to the mount point is within Windows' MAX_PATH limits (typically 255 characters). Failure to do so can result in the following error message:

mkdir /XXX protocol error and your registry will not function properly.

Maintenance

Currently upload purging and read-only mode are the only maintenance functions available. These and future maintenance functions which are related to storage can be configured under the maintenance section.

Upload Purging

Upload purging is a background process that periodically removes orphaned files from the upload directories of the registry. Upload purging is enabled by default. To configure upload directory purging, the following parameters must be set.

Parameter	Required	Description
`enabled`	yes	Set to true to enable upload purging. Default=true.
`age`	yes	Upload directories which are older than this age will be deleted. Default=168h (1 week)
`interval`	yes	The interval between upload directory purging. Default=24h.
`dryrun`	yes	dryrun can be set to true to obtain a summary of what directories will be deleted. Default=false.

Note: age and interval are strings containing a number with optional fraction and a unit suffix: e.g. 45m, 2h10m, 168h (1 week).

Read-only mode

If the readonly section under maintenance has enabled set to true, clients will not be allowed to write to the registry. This mode is useful to temporarily prevent writes to the backend storage so a garbage collection pass can be run. Before running garbage collection, the registry should be restarted with readonly's enabled set to true. After the garbage collection pass finishes, the registry may be restarted again, this time with readonly removed from the configuration (or set to false).

delete

Use the delete subsection to enable the deletion of image blobs and manifests by digest. It defaults to false, but it can be enabled by writing the following on the configuration file:

delete:
  enabled: true

cache

Use the cache subsection to enable caching of data accessed in the storage backend. Currently, the only available cache provides fast access to layer metadata. This, if configured, uses the blobdescriptor field.

You can set blobdescriptor field to redis or inmemory. The redis value uses a Redis pool to cache layer metadata. The inmemory value uses an in memory map.

NOTE: Formerly, blobdescriptor was known as layerinfo. While these are equivalent, layerinfo has been deprecated, in favor or blobdescriptor.

redirect

The redirect subsection provides configuration for managing redirects from content backends. For backends that support it, redirecting is enabled by default. Certain deployment scenarios may prefer to route all data through the Registry, rather than redirecting to the backend. This may be more efficient when using a backend that is not co-located or when a registry instance is doing aggressive caching.

Redirects can be disabled by adding a single flag disable, set to true under the redirect section:

redirect:
  disable: true

auth

auth:
  silly:
    realm: silly-realm
    service: silly-service
  token:
    realm: token-realm
    service: token-service
    issuer: registry-token-issuer
    rootcertbundle: /root/certs/bundle
  htpasswd:
    realm: basic-realm
    path: /path/to/htpasswd

The auth option is optional. There are currently 3 possible auth providers, silly, token and htpasswd. You can configure only one auth provider.

silly

The silly auth is only for development purposes. It simply checks for the existence of the Authorization header in the HTTP request. It has no regard for the header's value. If the header does not exist, the silly auth responds with a challenge response, echoing back the realm, service, and scope that access was denied for.

The following values are used to configure the response:

Parameter	Required	Description
`realm`	yes	The realm in which the registry server authenticates.
`service`	yes	The service being authenticated.

token

Token based authentication allows the authentication system to be decoupled from the registry. It is a well established authentication paradigm with a high degree of security.

Parameter	Required	Description
`realm`	yes	The realm in which the registry server authenticates.
`service`	yes	The service being authenticated.
`issuer`	yes	The name of the token issuer. The issuer inserts this into the token so it must match the value configured for the issuer.
`rootcertbundle`	yes	The absolute path to the root certificate bundle. This bundle contains the public part of the certificates that is used to sign authentication tokens.

For more information about Token based authentication configuration, see the specification.

htpasswd

The htpasswd authentication backed allows one to configure basic auth using an Apache htpasswd file. Only bcrypt format passwords are supported. Entries with other hash types will be ignored. The htpasswd file is loaded once, at startup. If the file is invalid, the registry will display an error and will not start.

WARNING: This authentication scheme should only be used with TLS configured, since basic authentication sends passwords as part of the http header.

Parameter	Required	Description
`realm`	yes	The realm in which the registry server authenticates.
`path`	yes	Path to htpasswd file to load at startup.

middleware

The middleware option is optional. Use this option to inject middleware at named hook points. All middleware must implement the same interface as the object they're wrapping. This means a registry middleware must implement the distribution.Namespace interface, repository middleware must implement distribution.Repository, and storage middleware must implement driver.StorageDriver.

An example configuration of the cloudfront middleware, a storage middleware:

middleware:
  registry:
    - name: ARegistryMiddleware
      options:
        foo: bar
  repository:
    - name: ARepositoryMiddleware
      options:
        foo: bar
  storage:
    - name: cloudfront
      options:
        baseurl: https://my.cloudfronted.domain.com/
        privatekey: /path/to/pem
        keypairid: cloudfrontkeypairid
        duration: 3000s

Each middleware entry has name and options entries. The name must correspond to the name under which the middleware registers itself. The options field is a map that details custom configuration required to initialize the middleware. It is treated as a map[string]interface{}. As such, it supports any interesting structures desired, leaving it up to the middleware initialization function to best determine how to handle the specific interpretation of the options.

cloudfront

Parameter	Required	Description
`baseurl`	yes	`SCHEME://HOST[/PATH]` at which Cloudfront is served.
`privatekey`	yes	Private Key for Cloudfront provided by AWS.
`keypairid`	yes	Key pair ID provided by AWS.
`duration`	no	Specify a `duration` by providing an integer and a unit. Valid time units are `ns`, `us` (or `µs`), `ms`, `s`, `m`, `h`. For example, `3000s` is a valid duration; there should be no space between the integer and unit. If you do not specify a `duration` or specify an integer without a time unit, this defaults to 20 minutes.

redirect

In place of the cloudfront storage middleware, the redirect storage middleware can be used to specify a custom URL to a location of a proxy for the layer stored by the S3 storage driver.

Parameter	Required	Description
baseurl	yes	`SCHEME://HOST` at which layers are served. Can also contain port. For example, `https://example.com:5443`.

reporting

reporting:
  bugsnag:
    apikey: bugsnagapikey
    releasestage: bugsnagreleasestage
    endpoint: bugsnagendpoint
  newrelic:
    licensekey: newreliclicensekey
    name: newrelicname
    verbose: true

The reporting option is optional and configures error and metrics reporting tools. At the moment only two services are supported, New Relic and Bugsnag, a valid configuration may contain both.

bugsnag

Parameter	Required	Description
`apikey`	yes	API Key provided by Bugsnag
`releasestage`	no	Tracks where the registry is deployed, for example, `production`,`staging`, or `development`.
`endpoint`	no	Specify the enterprise Bugsnag endpoint.

newrelic

Parameter	Required	Description
`licensekey`	yes	License key provided by New Relic.
`name`	no	New Relic application name.
`verbose`	no	Enable New Relic debugging output on stdout.

http

http:
  addr: localhost:5000
  net: tcp
  prefix: /my/nested/registry/
  host: https://myregistryaddress.org:5000
  secret: asecretforlocaldevelopment
  relativeurls: false
  tls:
    certificate: /path/to/x509/public
    key: /path/to/x509/private
    clientcas:
      - /path/to/ca.pem
      - /path/to/another/ca.pem
    letsencrypt:
      cachefile: /path/to/cache-file
      email: emailused@letsencrypt.com
  debug:
    addr: localhost:5001
  headers:
    X-Content-Type-Options: [nosniff]
  http2:
    disabled: false

The http option details the configuration for the HTTP server that hosts the registry.

Parameter	Required	Description
`addr`	yes	The address for which the server should accept connections. The form depends on a network type (see `net` option): `HOST:PORT` for tcp and `FILE` for a unix socket.
`net`	no	The network which is used to create a listening socket. Known networks are `unix` and `tcp`. The default empty value means tcp.
`prefix`	no	If the server does not run at the root path use this value to specify the prefix. The root path is the section before `v2`. It should have both preceding and trailing slashes, for example `/path/`.
`host`	no	This parameter specifies an externally-reachable address for the registry, as a fully qualified URL. If present, it is used when creating generated URLs. Otherwise, these URLs are derived from client requests.
`secret`	yes	A random piece of data. This is used to sign state that may be stored with the client to protect against tampering. For production environments you should generate a random piece of data using a cryptographically secure random generator. This configuration parameter may be omitted, in which case the registry will automatically generate a secret at launch. WARNING: If you are building a cluster of registries behind a load balancer, you MUST ensure the secret is the same for all registries.
`relativeurls`	no	Specifies that the registry should return relative URLs in Location headers. The client is responsible for resolving the correct URL. This option is not compatible with Docker 1.7 and earlier.

tls

The tls struct within http is optional. Use this to configure TLS for the server. If you already have a server such as Nginx or Apache running on the same host as the registry, you may prefer to configure TLS termination there and proxy connections to the registry server.

Parameter	Required	Description
`certificate`	yes	Absolute path to x509 cert file
`key`	yes	Absolute path to x509 private key file.
`clientcas`	no	An array of absolute paths to an x509 CA file

letsencrypt

The letsencrypt struct within tls is optional. Use this to configure TLS certificates provided by Let's Encrypt.

NOTE: When using Let's Encrypt ensure that the outward facing address is accessible on port 443. The registry defaults to listening on 5000, if run as a container consider adding the flag -p 443:5000 to the docker run command or similar setting in cloud configuration.

Parameter	Required	Description
`cachefile`	yes	Absolute path to a file for the Let's Encrypt agent to cache data
`email`	yes	Email used to register with Let's Encrypt.

debug

The debug option is optional . Use it to configure a debug server that can be helpful in diagnosing problems. The debug endpoint can be used for monitoring registry metrics and health, as well as profiling. Sensitive information may be available via the debug endpoint. Please be certain that access to the debug endpoint is locked down in a production environment.

The debug section takes a single, required addr parameter. This parameter specifies the HOST:PORT on which the debug server should accept connections.

headers

The headers option is optional . Use it to specify headers that the HTTP server should include in responses. This can be used for security headers such as Strict-Transport-Security.

The headers option should contain an option for each header to include, where the parameter name is the header's name, and the parameter value a list of the header's payload values.

Including X-Content-Type-Options: [nosniff] is recommended, so that browsers will not interpret content as HTML if they are directed to load a page from the registry. This header is included in the example configuration files.

http2

The http2 struct within http is optional. Use this to control http2 settings for the registry.

Parameter	Required	Description
`disabled`	no	A boolean that determines if http2 support should be disabled

notifications

notifications:
  endpoints:
    - name: alistener
      disabled: false
      url: https://my.listener.com/event
      headers: <http.Header>
      timeout: 500
      threshold: 5
      backoff: 1000
      ignoredmediatypes:
        - application/octet-stream

The notifications option is optional and currently may contain a single option, endpoints.

endpoints

Endpoints is a list of named services (URLs) that can accept event notifications.

Parameter	Required	Description
`name`	yes	A human readable name for the service.
`disabled`	no	A boolean to enable/disable notifications for a service.
`url`	yes	The URL to which events should be published.
`headers`	yes	Static headers to add to each request. Each header's name should be a key underneath headers, and each value is a list of payloads for that header name. Note that values must always be lists.
`timeout`	yes	An HTTP timeout value. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds.
`threshold`	yes	An integer specifying how long to wait before backing off a failure.
`backoff`	yes	How long the system backs off before retrying. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds.
`ignoredmediatypes`	no	List of target media types to ignore. An event whose target media type is present in this list will not be published to the endpoint.

redis

redis:
  addr: localhost:6379
  password: asecret
  db: 0
  dialtimeout: 10ms
  readtimeout: 10ms
  writetimeout: 10ms
  pool:
    maxidle: 16
    maxactive: 64
    idletimeout: 300s

Declare parameters for constructing the redis connections. Registry instances may use the Redis instance for several applications. The current purpose is caching information about immutable blobs. Most of the options below control how the registry connects to redis. You can control the pool's behavior with the pool subsection.

It's advisable to configure Redis itself with the allkeys-lru eviction policy as the registry does not set an expire value on keys.

Parameter	Required	Description
`addr`	yes	Address (host and port) of redis instance.
`password`	no	A password used to authenticate to the redis instance.
`db`	no	Selects the db for each connection.
`dialtimeout`	no	Timeout for connecting to a redis instance.
`readtimeout`	no	Timeout for reading from redis connections.
`writetimeout`	no	Timeout for writing to redis connections.

pool

pool:
  maxidle: 16
  maxactive: 64
  idletimeout: 300s

Configure the behavior of the Redis connection pool.

Parameter	Required	Description
`maxidle`	no	Sets the maximum number of idle connections.
`maxactive`	no	sets the maximum number of connections that should be opened before blocking a connection request.
`idletimeout`	no	sets the amount time to wait before closing inactive connections.

health

health:
  storagedriver:
    enabled: true
    interval: 10s
    threshold: 3
  file:
    - file: /path/to/checked/file
      interval: 10s
  http:
    - uri: http://server.to.check/must/return/200
      headers:
        Authorization: [Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==]
      statuscode: 200
      timeout: 3s
      interval: 10s
      threshold: 3
  tcp:
    - addr: redis-server.domain.com:6379
      timeout: 3s
      interval: 10s
      threshold: 3

The health option is optional. It may contain preferences for a periodic health check on the storage driver's backend storage, and optional periodic checks on local files, HTTP URIs, and/or TCP servers. The results of the health checks are available at /debug/health on the debug HTTP server if the debug HTTP server is enabled (see http section).

storagedriver

storagedriver contains options for a health check on the configured storage driver's backend storage. enabled must be set to true for this health check to be active.

Parameter	Required	Description
`enabled`	yes	"true" to enable the storage driver health check or "false" to disable it.
`interval`	no	The length of time to wait between repetitions of the check. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds. The default value is 10 seconds if this field is omitted.
`threshold`	no	An integer specifying the number of times the check must fail before the check triggers an unhealthy state. If this filed is not specified, a single failure will trigger an unhealthy state.

file

file is a list of paths to be periodically checked for the existence of a file. If a file exists at the given path, the health check will fail. This can be used as a way of bringing a registry out of rotation by creating a file.

Parameter	Required	Description
`file`	yes	The path to check for the existence of a file.
`interval`	no	The length of time to wait between repetitions of the check. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds. The default value is 10 seconds if this field is omitted.

http

http is a list of HTTP URIs to be periodically checked with HEAD requests. If a HEAD request doesn't complete or returns an unexpected status code, the health check will fail.

Parameter	Required	Description
`uri`	yes	The URI to check.
`headers`	no	Static headers to add to each request. Each header's name should be a key underneath headers, and each value is a list of payloads for that header name. Note that values must always be lists.
`statuscode`	no	Expected status code from the HTTP URI. Defaults to 200.
`timeout`	no	The length of time to wait before timing out the HTTP request. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds.
`interval`	no	The length of time to wait between repetitions of the check. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds. The default value is 10 seconds if this field is omitted.
`threshold`	no	An integer specifying the number of times the check must fail before the check triggers an unhealthy state. If this filed is not specified, a single failure will trigger an unhealthy state.

tcp

tcp is a list of TCP addresses to be periodically checked with connection attempts. The addresses must include port numbers. If a connection attempt fails, the health check will fail.

Parameter	Required	Description
`addr`	yes	The TCP address to connect to, including a port number.
`timeout`	no	The length of time to wait before timing out the TCP connection. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds.
`interval`	no	The length of time to wait between repetitions of the check. This field takes a positive integer and an optional suffix indicating the unit of time. Possible units are: `ns` (nanoseconds) `us` (microseconds) `ms` (milliseconds) `s` (seconds) `m` (minutes) `h` (hours) If you omit the suffix, the system interprets the value as nanoseconds. The default value is 10 seconds if this field is omitted.
`threshold`	no	An integer specifying the number of times the check must fail before the check triggers an unhealthy state. If this filed is not specified, a single failure will trigger an unhealthy state.

Proxy

proxy:
  remoteurl: https://registry-1.docker.io
  username: [username]
  password: [password]

Proxy enables a registry to be configured as a pull through cache to the official Docker Hub. See mirror for more information. Pushing to a registry configured as a pull through cache is currently unsupported.

Parameter	Required	Description
`remoteurl`	yes	The URL of the official Docker Hub
`username`	no	The username of the Docker Hub account
`password`	no	The password for the official Docker Hub account

To enable pulling private repositories (e.g. batman/robin) a username and password for user batman must be specified. Note: These private repositories will be stored in the proxy cache's storage and relevant measures should be taken to protect access to this.

Compatibility

compatibility:
  schema1:
    signingkeyfile: /etc/registry/key.json

Configure handling of older and deprecated features. Each subsection defines such a feature with configurable behavior.

Schema1

Parameter	Required	Description
`signingkeyfile`	no	The signing private key used for adding signatures to schema1 manifests. If no signing key is provided, a new ECDSA key will be generated on startup.

Validation

validation:
  manifests:
    urls:
      allow:
        - ^https?://([^/]+\.)*example\.com/
      deny:
        - ^https?://www\.example\.com/

disabled

Use the disabled flag to disable the other options in the validation section. They are enabled by default. This option deprecates the enabled flag.

manifests

Use the manifests subsection to configure manifests validation. If disabled is false the validation allows nothing.

urls

The allow and deny options are both lists of regular expressions that restrict the URLs in pushed manifests.

If allow is unset, pushing a manifest containing URLs will fail.

If allow is set, pushing a manifest will succeed only if all URLs within match one of the allow regular expressions and one of the following holds:

deny is unset.
deny is set but no URLs within the manifest match any of the deny regular expressions.

Example: Development configuration

The following is a simple example you can use for local development:

version: 0.1
log:
  level: debug
storage:
    filesystem:
        rootdirectory: /var/lib/registry
http:
    addr: localhost:5000
    secret: asecretforlocaldevelopment
    debug:
        addr: localhost:5001

The above configures the registry instance to run on port 5000, binding to localhost, with the debug server enabled. Registry data storage is in the /var/lib/registry directory. Logging is in debug mode, which is the most verbose.

A similar simple configuration is available at config-example.yml. Both are generally useful for local development.

Example: Middleware configuration

This example illustrates how to configure storage middleware in a registry. Middleware allows the registry to serve layers via a content delivery network (CDN). This is useful for reducing requests to the storage layer.

The registry supports Amazon Cloudfront. You can only use Cloudfront in conjunction with the S3 storage driver.

Parameter	Description
`name`	The storage middleware name. Currently `cloudfront` is an accepted value.
`disabled`	Set to `false` to easily disable the middleware.
`options:`	A set of key/value options to configure the middleware. `baseurl:` The Cloudfront base URL. `privatekey:` The location of your AWS private key on the filesystem. `keypairid:` The ID of your Cloudfront keypair. `duration:` The duration in minutes for which the URL is valid. Default is 20.

The following example illustrates these values:

middleware:
    storage:
        - name: cloudfront
          disabled: false
          options:
             baseurl: http://d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net
             privatekey: /path/to/asecret.pem
             keypairid: asecret
             duration: 60

Note

: Cloudfront keys exist separately to other AWS keys. See the documentation on AWS credentials for more information.
