Is it possible to view singularity images as oras://ghcr.io/ in github packages #16
Description
Hi,
following your GREAT workflow I've managed to create a singularity image for my project and upload it to ghcr.io.
I still have some issues:
- it seems that the package is advertised as a "docker image" in my project package page from github:
Install from the command line:

$ docker pull ghcr.io/feelpp/salome.docker:latest
How can I tell github to display a more appropriate message like: singularity pull oras://....
- Next as my project is private I need to pass some credentials to pull the singularity image. How can do that?
Thanks for your help

awesome! So the GitHub packages interface is incorrect for different artifact types - whatever you put up on there it's going to show that Docker command (so safe to ignore it). What you want to do instead is:
And unfortunately I don't know any way to change that page - perhaps we should ping GitHub to request better support for that?
If your project is private (but you have permission) you'll need to use oras login first with a GitHub personal access token.

Indeed, that would be great to tell docker image from singularity in the packages.
As for the pull operation, actually, I've already tried something like that:
echo token | singularity remote login -u Trophime --password-stdin oras://ghcr.ioBut it keeps saying:
FATAL: while login to oras://ghcr.io: Get "https://ghcr.io/v2/": denied: deniedMaybe I've not selected the right items for the PAT. Any idea which items I should check in the list?

I would check that:
I typically just use public repos / packages but I remember running into this and it seemed to me the message was correct - the PAT I provided didn't have permission to do the pull.
Another way to debug is outside of singularity - install the oras client (https://oras.land) and then do just
Once you get that working, then go back to Singularity (and check the permissions first anyway!)
