support for deleting an image and all it's tags about docker-registry-browser HOT 1 OPEN

Hi @dannydulai,

unfortunately the registry API only supports to delete the tags and not the complete repository.
AFAIK the official way is like you do and run a garbage-collection job on the registry server (there's on e build in) as a cronjob or so to remove repositories without tags.

I was initially thinking to check for the presence of tags and exclude the image from the list-view but this would have introduced some kind of N+1 query like behaviour on the API (one call to get all repositories and then another one per returned repository to check for it's tags) which I then decided to not to.

Best, Klaus
