Synopsis

Calls the Amazon EC2 Container Registry DescribeImages API operation.

Syntax

Get-ECRImageMetadata
-RepositoryName <String>
-ImageId <ImageIdentifier[]>
-RegistryId <String>
-Filter_TagStatus <TagStatus>
-MaxResult <Int32>
-NextToken <String>

Description

Returns metadata about the images in a repository, including image size, image tags, and creation date. Beginning with Docker version 1.9, the Docker client compresses image layers before pushing them to a V2 Docker registry. The output of the docker images command shows the uncompressed image size, so it may return a larger image size than the image sizes returned by DescribeImages.

This operation automatically pages all available results to the pipeline - parameters related to iteration are only needed if you want to manually control the paginated output.

Parameters

-Filter_TagStatus <TagStatus>
The tag status with which to filter your DescribeImages results. You can filter results based on whether they are TAGGED or UNTAGGED.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?False
-ImageId <ImageIdentifier[]>
The list of image IDs for the requested repository.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?False
AliasesImageIds
-MaxResult <Int32>
The maximum number of repository results returned by DescribeImages in paginated output. When this parameter is used, DescribeImages only returns maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. The remaining results of the initial request can be seen by sending another DescribeImages request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 1000. If this parameter is not used, then DescribeImages returns up to 100 results and a nextToken value, if applicable. This option cannot be used when you specify images with imageIds.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?False
AliasesMaxItems, MaxResults
-NextToken <String>
The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated DescribeImages request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value. This value is null when there are no more results to return. This option cannot be used when you specify images with imageIds.
Note: This parameter is only used if you are manually controlling output pagination of the service API call.
In order to manually control output pagination, assign $null, for the first call, and the value of $AWSHistory.LastServiceResponse.NextToken, for subsequent calls, to this parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?False
-RegistryId <String>
The AWS account ID associated with the registry that contains the repository in which to describe images. If you do not specify a registry, the default registry is assumed.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-RepositoryName <String>
The repository that contains the images to describe.
Required?False
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-ProfileLocation <String>

Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)

If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials. Note that the encrypted credential file is not supported on all platforms. It will be skipped when searching for profiles on Windows Nano Server, Mac, and Linux platforms.

If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.

As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.

Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information. The profile is expected to be found in the secure credential file shared with the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. You can also specify the name of a profile stored in the .ini-format credential file used with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-SecretKey <String>
The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-SessionToken <String>
The session token if the access and secret keys are temporary session-based credentials.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-Region <String>
The system name of the AWS region in which the operation should be invoked. For example, us-east-1, eu-west-1 etc.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False
-EndpointUrl <String>

The endpoint to make the call against.

Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.

Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? False

Inputs

System.String
You can pipe a String object to this cmdlet for the RepositoryName parameter.

Outputs

Amazon.ECR.Model.ImageDetail
This cmdlet returns a collection of Amazon.ECR.Model.ImageDetail objects. The service call response (type Amazon.ECR.Model.DescribeImagesResponse) can also be referenced from properties attached to the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack. Additionally, the following properties are added as Note properties to the service response type instance for the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack: NextToken (type System.String)
