Cannot enter into the public projects in the global search result page without login

[ywk253100]

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Logout
2. Global search "library"
3. Click the "library" in the search result page

Expected: Enter into the project and get repository list
Got: Login page

Because get current user api returns 401, and the routergateway helps to redirect to login page. @ninjadq , could you please take a look?

This is by design, I remember you said that user without logged in cannot visit any content is the right behavior @reasonerjt

Hello,
@reasonerjt Public projects from definition should be available without authentication I think. Compare DockerHUB approach.

Now I can see inconsistency between UI/REST and native registry interface. It is possible to pull images from public projects but it is impossible to view/search public projects in the UI/REST.

It would be great to have the issue fixed soon.

[reasonerjt]

This is a bug from UI but we consider for private registry user the impact is low.
We're considering to change the design so even for public project user has to login to view.
We'll revisit it after v1.8.0

Requires a backend to provide a list of permissions without user login

This feature is very useful for us.
Please fix it.

[reasonerjt]

To fix this the permission API should return empty permission list rather than 401.

Could this get a reboot? Really need access to public projects for non-logged in users. Using LDAP/AD auth for specific groups so all other Guest / Anonymous users should be able to see public project contents.
