Failed to add private Docker registry

[sebastian-philipp]

Hey,

when adding the registry:
http://10.17.3.0:5000
with no password to vscode, I'm getting the error mentioned below.

Repro steps:

1. install vscode on Kubuntu via snap. (Interestingly, this failed to add a kmenu entry)
2. install the docker extension
3. click on Connect to private registry ... (preview)
4. insert http://10.17.3.0:5000, <enter>
5. <Enter> (no password)

Action: vscode-docker.connectCustomRegistry

Error type: Error
Error Message: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files

Version: 0.2.0
OS: linux, kubuntu 18.04

Can you successfully log in to docker hub in the extension (both use keytar that's installed with vscode)?

The following seem to suggest that installing gnome-keyring and libsecret might fix this:
lbryio/lbry-desktop#386
Foundry376/Mailspring#681

@StephenWeatherford actually, I didn't bother to add any credentials for docker hub, as I just wanted to use my local registry.

I was just trying to narrow down what worked and what didn't. Have you tried the suggested fix?

[sebastian-philipp]

@StephenWeatherford Yes. sudo apt install gnome-keyring is a workaround. Turns out, after asking for the password of my private registry, vscode asks for a docker hub account credentials and then wants to create a new keyring.

I left the docker hub credentials empty and it still worked.

I glad it worked for you. Closing, but others can hopefully find the solution here if they need it.
