+title: "Deploying to Knative using a private container registry"
+#linkTitle: "OPTIONAL_ALTERNATE_NAV_TITLE"
+weight: 10
+---
+This guide walks you through deploying an application to Knative from source code in a git repository using a private container registry for the container image. The source code should contain a dockerfile. For this guide, we'll use this [helloworld app](https://github.com/knative/docs/tree/master/serving/samples/helloworld-go), but you could use your own.
+
+
+## Set up a private container registry and obtain credentials
+If you do not want your container image to be publicly available, you may want to use a private container registry. In this example, we'll use IBM Container Registry, but most of these concepts will be similar for other clouds.
+
+1. Ensure you have the [IBM Cloud CLI](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cli/reference/ibmcloud/download_cli.html#install_use) installed.  
+
+1. Install the container registry plugin:
+
+    ```
+    ibmcloud plugin install container-registry
+    ```
+
+1. Choose a name for your first namespace, and then create it: 
+
+    ```
+    ibmcloud cr namespace-add <my_namespace>
+    ```
+    
+    A namespace represents the spot within a registry that holds your images. You can set up multiple namespaces as well as control access to your namespaces by using IAM policies.
+
+1. Create a token:
+
+    ```
+    ibmcloud cr token-add --description "token description" --non-expiring --readwrite
+    ```
+    
+    The automated build processes you'll be setting up will use this token to access your images.
+
+1. The CLI output should include a token identifier and the token. Make note of the token. You can verify that the token was created by listing all tokens:
+
+    ```
+    ibmcloud cr token-list
+    ```
+
+## Provide container registry credentials to Knative
+You will use the credentials you obtained in the previous section to authenticate to your private container registry. First, you'll need to create a secret to store the credentials for this registry. This secret will be used to push the built image to the container registry.
+
+A Secret is a Kubernetes object containing sensitive data such as a password, a token, or a key. You can also read more about [Secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/).
+
+1. Create a file named `registry-push-secret.yaml` containing the following:
+
+    ```yaml
+    apiVersion: v1
+    kind: Secret
+    metadata:
+      name: registry-push-secret
+      annotations:
+        build.knative.dev/docker-0: https://registry.ng.bluemix.net
+    type: kubernetes.io/basic-auth
+    stringData:
+      username: token
+      password: <token_value>
+    ```
+
+1. Update the "password" with your <token_value>. Note that username will be the string `token`. Save the file.
+
+1. Apply the secret to your cluster.
+
+    ```
+    kubectl apply --filename registry-push-secret.yaml
+    ```
+
+1. You will also need a secret for the knative-serving component to pull down an image from the private container registry. This secret will be a `docker-registry` type secret. You can create this via the commandline. For username, simply use the string `token`. For <token_value>, use the token you made note of earlier.
+
+    ```
+    kubectl create secret docker-registry ibm-cr-secret --docker-server=https://registry.ng.bluemix.net --docker-username=token --docker-password=<token_value>
+    ```
+
+A Service Account provides an identity for processes that run in a Pod. This Service Account will be used to link the build process for Knative to the Secrets you just created.
+
+1. Create a file named `service-account.yaml` containing the following:
+
+    ```yaml
+    apiVersion: v1
+    kind: ServiceAccount
+    metadata:
+      name: build-bot
+    secrets:
+    - name: registry-push-secret
+    imagePullSecrets:
+    - name: ibm-cr-secret
+    ```
+
+1. Apply the service account to your cluster:
+
+    ```
+    kubectl apply -f service-account.yaml
+    ```
+
+## Deploy to Knative
+To build our application from the source on GitHub, and push the resulting image to the IBM Container Registry, we will use the Kaniko build template.
+
+1. Install the Kaniko build template
+
+    ```
+    kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knative/build-templates/master/kaniko/kaniko.yaml
+    ```
+
+1. You need to create a service manifest which defines the service to deploy, including where the source code is and which build-template to use. Create a file named `service.yaml` and copy the following definition. Make sure to replace {NAMESPACE} with your own namespace you created earlier:
+
+    ```yaml
+    apiVersion: serving.knative.dev/v1alpha1
+    kind: Service
+    metadata:
+      name: helloworld-go
+      namespace: default
+    spec:
+      runLatest:
+        configuration:
+          build:
+            apiVersion: build.knative.dev/v1alpha1
+            kind: Build
+            spec:
+              serviceAccountName: build-bot
+              source:
+                git:
+                  url: https://github.com/knative/docs
+                  revision: master
+                subPath: serving/samples/helloworld-go
+              template:
+                name: kaniko
+                arguments:
+                - name: IMAGE
+                  value: registry.ng.bluemix.net/{NAMESPACE}/helloworld-go:latest
+          revisionTemplate:
+            spec:
+              serviceAccountName: build-bot
+              container:
+                image: registry.ng.bluemix.net/{NAMESPACE}/helloworld-go:latest 
+                imagePullPolicy: Always
+                env:
+                  - name: TARGET
+                    value: "Go Sample v1"
+    ```
+
+1. Apply the configuration using `kubectl`:
+    
+    ```
+    kubectl apply -f service.yaml
+    ```
+
+    Applying this service definition will kick off a series of events:
+    - Fetches the revision specified from GitHub and builds it into a container, using the Kaniko build template.
+    - Pushes the latest image to the private registry using the registry-push-secret
+    - Pulls down the latest image from the private registry using the ibm-cr-secret.
+    - Starts the service, and your app will be live.
+
+
+1. You can run `kubectl get pods --watch` to see the pods initializing.
+
+1. Once all the pods are initialized, you can see that your container image was built and pushed to the IBM Container Registry:
+
+    ```
+    ibmcloud cr image-list
+    ```
+
+## Test Application Behavior
+1. Run the following command to find the external IP address for your service:
+
+   ```shell
+   INGRESSGATEWAY=istio-ingressgateway
+   kubectl get svc $INGRESSGATEWAY --namespace istio-system
+   ```
+
+   Example:
+
+   ```shell
+   NAME                     TYPE           CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP      PORT(S)                                      AGE
+   xxxxxxx-ingressgateway   LoadBalancer   10.23.247.74   35.203.155.229   80:32380/TCP,443:32390/TCP,32400:32400/TCP   2d
+   ```
+
+1. Run the following command to find the domain URL for your service:
+
+   ```shell
+   kubectl get ksvc helloworld-go  --output=custom-columns=NAME:.metadata.name,DOMAIN:.status.domain
+   ```
+
+   Example:
+
+   ```shell
+   NAME                DOMAIN
+   helloworld-go       helloworld-go.default.example.com
+   ```
+
+1. Test your app by sending it a request. Use the following `curl` command with
+   the domain URL `helloworld-go.default.example.com` and `EXTERNAL-IP` address
+   that you retrieved in the previous steps:
+
+   ```shell
+   curl -H "Host: helloworld-go.default.example.com" http://{EXTERNAL_IP_ADDRESS}
+   ```
+
+   Example:
+
+   ```shell
+   curl -H "Host: helloworld-go.default.example.com" http://35.203.155.229
+   Hello Go Sample v1!
+   ```
+
+   > Note: Add `-v` option to get more detail if the `curl` command failed.
+
+## Removing the sample app deployment
+
+To remove the sample app from your cluster, delete the service record:
+
+```shell
+kubectl delete --filename service.yaml
+```
