Push images from local to remote harbor registry through AWS SSM

Remote-Push-AWS-SSM.md

Overview:

Due to limitations in the harbor registry, we cannot port forward to connect the harbor registry for local system. However, we can save the image and send it to jump server/remote server, and through the remote server we can upload the image to the harbor private registry.

ssh config:

Added below in ~/.ssh/config

  Host base
    User <user>
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/<private key>
    HostName ip/hostid/hostname
    ProxyCommand sh -c "aws ssm start-session --target  %h --document-name AWS-StartSSHSession --parameters 'portNumber=%p' --profile <aws profile>"

  Host doc-jump
    User <user>
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/<private key>
    HostName ip/hostid/hostname
    ProxyCommand ssh -q -CW %h:%p base

Sample commands

docker tag cirros:latest <harbor externalurl>/test/cirros:latest
ssh  doc-jump "docker load --input ~/doc-image/cirros.tar"
