                                  "amd64". If set to "all" - all architectures

Create an ECR repository with the following two tags set:

• upstream-image set to a public Docker hub image, i.e nginx or istio/proxyv2
• upstream-tags set to a /-separated list of tag globs, i.e 1.6.* or just 1.2-alpine. ECR does not allow the use of the * character in tag values, so you should use + as a replacement.

Optional:

• ignore-tags set to a /-separated list of tag globs to ignore. ECR does not allow the use of the * character in tag values, so you should use + as a replacement.

Terraform example:

resource "aws_ecr_repository" "repo" {
  name = "nginx"
  tags = {
    upstream-image = "nginx",
    // Mirror 1.16* and 1.17*
    upstream-tags = "1.16+/1.17+"
    ignore-tags = "+-gpu"
  }
}

Running ecr-sync sync will begin concurrently fetching matched images tags and pushing them to ECR.

You can run ecr-sync list-repos to see all repositories that will be mirrored.

You can also manually copy specific image patterns using ecr-mirror copy:

ecr-mirror copy "istio/proxyv2:1.6.*" ACCOUNT_ID.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/istio-proxyv2
