{% data reusables.package_registry.packages-cluster-support %}
|
|
|
|
## Step 1: Check whether {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} is available for your enterprise
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} is available in {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} 3.0 or higher. If you're using an earlier version of {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %}, you'll have to upgrade to use {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}. For more information about upgrading your {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} instance, see "[About upgrades to new releases](/admin/overview/about-upgrades-to-new-releases)."
|
|
## Step 2: Enable {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} and configure external storage
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} on {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} uses external blob storage to store your packages.
|
|
|
|
After enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} for {% data variables.product.product_location %}, you'll need to prepare your third-party storage bucket. The amount of storage required depends on your usage of {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}, and the setup guidelines can vary by storage provider.
|
|
|
|
Supported external storage providers
|
|
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 {% ifversion ghes %}
|
|
- Azure Blob Storage {% endif %}
|
|
- MinIO
|
|
|
|
To enable {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} and configure third-party storage, see:
|
|
- "[Enabling GitHub Packages with AWS](/admin/packages/enabling-github-packages-with-aws)"{% ifversion ghes %}
|
|
- "[Enabling GitHub Packages with Azure Blob Storage](/admin/packages/enabling-github-packages-with-azure-blob-storage)"{% endif %}
|
|
- "[Enabling GitHub Packages with MinIO](/admin/packages/enabling-github-packages-with-minio)"
|
|
|
|
## Step 3: Specify the package ecosystems to support on your instance
|
|
|
|
Choose which package ecosystems you'd like to enable, disable, or set to read-only on {% data variables.product.product_location %}. Available options are Docker, RubyGems, npm, Apache Maven, Gradle, or NuGet. For more information, see "[Configuring package ecosystem support for your enterprise](/enterprise/admin/packages/configuring-package-ecosystem-support-for-your-enterprise)."
|
|
|
|
## Step 4: Ensure you have a TLS certificate for your package host URL, if needed
|
|
|
|
If subdomain isolation is enabled for {% data variables.product.product_location %}, you will need to create and upload a TLS certificate that allows the package host URL for each ecosystem you want to use, such as `npm.HOSTNAME`. Make sure each package host URL includes `https://`.
|
|
|
|
You can create the certificate manually, or you can use _Let's Encrypt_. If you already use _Let's Encrypt_, you must request a new TLS certificate after enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}. For more information about package host URLs, see "[Enabling subdomain isolation](/enterprise/admin/configuration/enabling-subdomain-isolation)." For more information about uploading TLS certificates to {% data variables.product.product_name %}, see "[Configuring TLS](/enterprise/admin/configuration/configuring-tls)."
