I use one of the following two ways for this check:
1: View config.json file:
In case you are logged in to "private.registry.com" you will see an entry for the same as following in ~/.docker/config.json
:
"auths": {
"private.registry.com": {
"auth": "gibberishgibberishgibberishgibberishgibberishgibberish"
}
}
2: Try docker login once again:
If you are trying to see if you already have an active session with private.registry.com, try to login again:
bash$ docker login private.registry.com
Username (logged-in-user):
If you get an output like the above, it means logged-in-user
already had an active session with private.registry.com
. If you are just promotedprompted for username instead, that would indicate that there's no active session.
