getting image ID (sha) takes longer than docker cli #627

Closed

Description

I am trying to find a cheap way to get the image SHA, if I do docker inspect it takes 0.07 s

$ time docker inspect --format='{{.Id}}' ubuntu
sha256:775349758637aff77bf85e2ff0597e86e3e859183ef0baba8b3e8fc8d3cba51c

real	0m0.073s
user	0m0.035s
sys	0m0.033s

however if I use go-containerregistry it will take 4s,

ref, _ := name.ParseReference("ubuntu", name.WeakValidation)
img, _ := daemon.Image(ref)
m, _ := img.Manifest()

is there any cheaper way to get the image ID using go-containerregistry ?

I also tried crane.Digest that still takes 2.1 seconds.

fmt.Println(crane.Digest("ubuntu"))

Update: I also tried getting it through config but it is still 1.95 seconds

code:

	ref, _ := name.ParseReference("ubuntu", name.WeakValidation)
	img, _ := daemon.Image(ref)
	cf, _ := img.ConfigName()
	fmt.Println(cf)

time

$ time ./example1 
sha256:775349758637aff77bf85e2ff0597e86e3e859183ef0baba8b3e8fc8d3cba51c

real    0m1.954s

This would be an important improvment for iterative development on minikube. when users constantly rebuild an image and push.
