Packages & Registries
The GitLab Package Registry acts as a private or public registry for a variety of common package managers. You can publish and share packages, which can be easily consumed as a dependency in downstream projects.
The Package Registry supports the following formats:
You can also use the API to administer the Package Registry.
The GitLab Container Registry is a secure and private registry for container images. It's built on open source software and completely integrated within GitLab. Use GitLab CI/CD to create and publish images. Use the GitLab API to manage the registry across groups and projects.
The Dependency Proxy is a local proxy for frequently-used upstream images and packages.
