Debugging

Debugging

In the process of communicating with remote OCI registries, it is possible that an error will occur. In order to help debug an error situation, use the --debug command line argument. Specifying this argument will output detailed logs of all communications between imgpkg and the OCI registries.

This feature is available in v0.20.0 and later

As an example, consider this pull command along with the additional information logged. The record of all HTTP communication will be displayed to assist in resolving a problem or error condition.

imgpkg pull -b registry.example.com/foo/bar:latest -o temp --debug
