When to use push-to-registry
- →Syncing Packer build results with HCP registry
- →Managing image lifecycle metadata
- →Implementing image version control
About push-to-registry
It configures Packer templates to transmit build metadata (not the image itself) to the HCP Packer registry. This allows teams to track image versions and metadata across environments.
Push Packer build metadata to HCP Packer registry for tracking and managing image lifecycle. Use when integrating Packer builds with HCP Packer for version control and governance.
When not to use it
- →Pushing actual image binaries to the registry
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires consistent bucket names
- →Metadata only, not image binaries
How it compares
It enables centralized tracking and governance of image versions compared to local-only builds.
