Customize Images

There are several ways provided for you to customize the images pulled by the Harbor operator.

By operator environment variables

Set the image pulling path of each Harbor component or dependent service via the operator environment variables when deploying the operator controller into the Kubernetes cluster. The image paths set by this way will be applicable to all the Harbor clusters deployed from the operator.

By default, the environment variables settings of the image pulling paths are not activated in the default full stack operator deployment manifest and Harbor operator only deployment manifest. You can follow the way shown below to enable it.

1. Uncomment the following content section in the full stack or Harbor operator only kustomization yaml file.

# - patch/image-source.yaml

1. Regenerate the deployment manifest with the updated kustomization file and apply it

   # Change workdir
   cd manifests/cluster
   
   # Generate the deployment manifest
   kustomize build . -o my_new_deployment.yaml
   
   # Apply
   kubectl apply -f my_new_deployment.yaml
   
   # Or use command pipe
   kustomize build . | kubectl apply -f -

or directly apply via kustomization file

# Change workdir
cd manifests/cluster

# Apply with kustomization template file
kubectl apply -k kustomization.yaml
