What happened?

Hi,
it seems like I'm unable to pull new images with testcontainers-go on my local machine. I know that the same config works on other operating systems / docker versions / 🤷‍♂️.

I had a look into it and dockercfs says in its comment for GetRegistryCredentials(...): "If the returned username string is empty, the password is an identity token."
With the following commit I made it work again: stubents@0b6a416

However, I'm not too familiar with container registry authentication mechanisms so I can't really say if this is the right thing to do or might break other stuff...

Nevertheless, hope this helps :)

Could you elaborate a PR including tests to automatically demonstrate the behaviour? I've seen your patch and I think it could be fine, but I'd like to have a test demonstrating it, as we have a lot of them in the docker_auth_test.go file.

[stubents]

Thanks for your quick response!
I'm not completely sure how you imagine the test:

We could spin up a registry that's configured to accept an identity token and test if it accepts a token that is set in the AuthConfig. This wouldn't really have much to do with the code change I made, though.

To really see the code executed we'd need to invoke dockercfg.GetRegistryCredentials(k) but this would run directly exec.Command(...) which is hard to intercept and I don't see any other tests doing this.

Could you please point me into the right direction here?

FWIW, I may be seeing a similar version of this on Fedora with Podman.

Server Version: 4.9.0
API Version: 1.41
Operating System: fedora
Resolved Docker Host: unix:///run/user/1000/podman/podman.sock
Resolved Docker Socket Path: /run/user/1000/podman/podman.sock

It is attempting to pull the following image: ghcr.io/cuppett/mariadb:11.0

The container is a public container,. This fails in the same way when both when there is a valid credential in my ~./docker/config.json and when there is no credential in there.

Log attached.

Given we have a docker registry module (https://golang.testcontainers.org/modules/registry/) I encourage you to use it in a repro project to verify this behaviour 🙏
