[Feature Request] Delete specific image from docker registry

[lonix1]

Feature Description

It would be nice if we could delete a specific tag/version from the docker registry. The same is possible on docker hub.

Examples: one makes a mistake and wants to remove that image, or an exploit was discovered in a certain version. In such cases, it's desirable to delete those images from the registry.

You can do that from the UI. But you have to take care about deleting an image which is used in a manifest list because that list is broken afterwards.

You can do that from the UI.

I'm surprised because I looked everywhere... where can I find the delete option?

[KN4CK3R]

On the settings page of a package version there is a delete button.

I think that's to delete the entire package rather than a specific version. But maybe I am misunderstanding?

What I did:

• go to organisation
• click Packages tab
• click desired package (in my case it's a docker image)
• in the panel on the right, click the desired version at the bottom
• in the panel on the right, click the "Settings" link

The page that loads shows "Danger Zone" and the "Delete package" button. But that will delete the entire package, not just a specific version.

LOL I just tried it and it works!

As you can see it's not user friendly. It is presented as an option to delete "the package", rather than a specific version.

Maybe the wording could be improved.

Maybe we can close this issue then and I can add a small comment to that one instead.

Thanks for your help @KN4CK3R I appreciate it.
