How to pull Docker image by digest
TL;DR;
docker pull rustdesk/rustdesk-server:[email protected]:0dd2aa4db8fdb896056f64e457835a98f5e8bd55e88d37e9f769f2
Full Story
It's SOOOOO weird that pulling "latest" image didn't pull the latest image.
I pull and run rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
today. However, it crashed immediately and complained about no license.
And I know rustdesk provide rustdesk-server for free for personal use.
Did I download the wrong image? Did rustdesk forget to tag it's latest image with "latest" tag? I did a "docker image ls":
docker image ls |grep rust
rustdesk/rustdesk-server latest b732f09f2d6e 17 months ago 85.3MB
And saw the "17 months ago". What?!
I removed the image and re-pull from Docker Hub, but I got the same, out-of-date image.
I have to pull by digest which will download the exact image that I want.
docker pull rustdesk/rustdesk-server:[email protected]:0dd2aa4db8fdb896056f64e457835a98f5e8bd55e88d37e9f769f2
docker image ls |grep rust
rustdesk/rustdesk-server <none> fdd2924f0c5f 2 months ago 95.3MB
rustdesk/rustdesk-server latest b732f09f2d6e 17 months ago 85.3MB
And as you can see, I need to manually fix the tag issue:
docker image rm rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
docker tag fdd2924f0c5f rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
