# topcss/docker-pull-tar

无需 Docker 环境，就能直接搜索、下载多架构（如 arm、x86）的 Docker 镜像并保存为 tar 包。Search and download multi-architecture (e.g., arm, x86) Docker images directly as tar files without needing a Docker environment.

## What it is
A Python tool (also distributed as a standalone EXE and a Gradio web UI) that searches Docker registries and pulls multi-architecture images as .tar files without requiring a Docker installation. It supports resume, retries, SHA256 verification, multiple registry mirrors, and proxy configuration.

## Use cases
- download docker images as tar without installing docker
- pull arm64 images on an x86 machine
- transfer docker images to an air-gapped intranet
- search docker hub images by keyword and pick a tag
- resume an interrupted image download
- browse and manage downloaded image tar files in a browser

## When to choose
- you need offline image tarballs for machines without Docker or internet access
- you want to pull images for a different CPU architecture than your host
- you prefer a simple single-file tool or web UI over installing Docker

## When to avoid
- you already have Docker and can just use docker pull and docker save
- you need to run or extract image layers rather than save them as tar
- you need a daemon or registry service rather than a download utility
