Jx: Biggest network problem for me, because of the GFW

[LinuxSuRen]

As the title, if the process of jx install can pull images from a register, that will be very good. And more Chinese people can learn and use JenkinsX.

is this because you cannot see docker hub? Is there another public docker registry we could mirror our images into?

[LinuxSuRen]

Some of the images are host in google. Because of the GFW, a lot of people can't visit it. But I already mirror most of the images that jx needs into aliyun.com. So if we can config these, that will be great.

[jstrachan]

I wonder if there's a way to configure docker daemons to always look at mirror sites like aliyun.com when looking for docker images?

[LinuxSuRen]

I don't know about that. Or we can add a prefix with image, when pulling a image. I don’t know witch way is better.

[LinuxSuRen]

Maybe we can set the images in charts as a var, when perform the install action, we can override.

docs on docker registry mirroring: https://docs.docker.com/registry/recipes/mirror/ here's an example: https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/docs/using-dockerhub-mirroring

Closing this since does not seems to be an issue in jx.

@ccojocar I don't think so. Jenkins X use http://chartmuseum.jenkins-x.io as chart repo. It was hosted on google's servers. The servers may be blocked by GFW. Can you offer github hosted charts for me ? Thank you very much.
