Create Docker Hub repositories from Gmail requests

A repository request lands in your inbox. Notis can create the named Docker Hub repository and report the result where you work.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Create Docker Hub Repository

Tool to create a Docker Hub repository under a namespace. Use when you need to programmatically instantiate a new repo under your organization or user.

Why this helps

Repository requests get buried in email, then someone has to reopen Docker Hub and create the repo by hand.

  • Turn explicit requests into repository setup without switching apps.
  • Keep the requested namespace and repository name together in the email context.
  • Get a run report after the repository creation attempt.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Docker Hub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Docker Hub repository only when a received email clearly names the namespace and repository, and to report missing details instead of guessing.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request email.

Questions about this workflow

What details should the request email include?

It should clearly identify the Docker Hub namespace and repository name. If either is missing or ambiguous, have Notis report that instead of guessing.

Will it create a repository for every received email?

No. In the prompt, specify that it should act only on an explicit repository creation request.
