actions-runner-controller image in the gallery.ecr.aws

[ymedlop]

What would you like added?

I would like to request that the actions-runner-controller image be published in the gallery.ecr.aws repository.

Why is this needed?

We are currently using Kubernetes clusters in AWS, where we are sourcing images from gallery.ecr.aws instead of Docker. This approach is in place to mitigate quotas issues associated with pulling images directly from Docker. Our organization does not have a subscription with Docker.

As an alternative, consider using Pull-Through Cache rules in ECR to make your own copy.

Thanks you! I will take a look.

Thank you for the suggestion! To avoid Docker rate limits, we are currently using the images available directly in GitHub Packages: GitHub Packages - actions-runner-controller.

This approach has been working well for us, but having the images in gallery.ecr.aws would certainly streamline the process for AWS-focused workflows.
