I am running my flows in DockerAgent, the image I want to use is in private gitlab registry, how can I specify username and token required to pull the image ?

@Prasanth Kothuri you could try passing it as environment variables either on: #1 Run configuration

flow.run_config = DockerRun(
    env={"SOME_VAR": "VALUE"},
    image="example/image-name:with-tag"
)

#2 or on the agent

prefect agent docker start --env KEY=value

I think you need the second one here

ok, what would be the name of these environment variables ? when I pull manually I do

docker login

and then do

docker pull

Let me try checking their CLI

sure, but who does the docker login ?

You do on the agent machine before you spin the agent because the agent just uses the underlying

docker pull

. So you would authenticate the agent.

yes thats what I am doing now, i thought the prefect docker agent has some option to do this.. looks like there is not

Been looking and yeah I guess Gitlab doesn’t have a way to authenticate with environment variables. That was the initial suggestion cuz AWS and GCP provide such ways
