Self-hosted Docker registry with proxy pull through

I decided that I want to self-host all my docker images for the purposes of regularly rebuilding and security scanning. The first step is to set up a registry, which coincidently enough you can do with a Docker container 😛!

Instructions for setting up the proxy are on the offidical docker docs here

Deployment

I chose to deploy with Portainer because I already use it for monitoring all my docker containers. I deploy most container with Ansible but use Portainer to setup a few more adhoc or non-git driven applications.
