A namespace allows you to effectively manage a collection of repositories, including repository permissions and repository attributes. This topic describes the basic operations on a namespace.
Best practices
A namespace is a collection of repositories. We recommend that you place the repositories of a company or an organization in the same namespace.
Sample namespaces named after a company: aliyun and alibaba
Sample namespace named after a team or organization: misaka-team
Basic operations on a namespace
Create a namespace
Log on to the Container Registry console. In the left-side navigation pane, click Instances. On the Instances page, click the Container Registry Personal Edition instance. On the management page of the Container Registry Personal Edition instance, choose in the left-side navigation pane. On the Namespace page, click Create Namespace in the upper-left corner. In the Create Namespace dialog box, enter a namespace name and click Confirm.
NoteIf you do not need a namespace, you can delete the namespace. After the namespace is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Proceed with caution.
A maximum of three namespaces can be created within each Alibaba Cloud account.
Configure a namespace
By default, if you push an image to a repository that does not exist in a namespace, Container Registry automatically creates the repository based on the repository name that you specify.
To disable this feature, turn off Automatically Create Repository for the namespace.
By default, a repository that is automatically created upon image push is private.
You can set Default Repository Type to Public for a namespace to change the default repository type.
