how to authenticate docker build when using private gitlab repo

When running docker build on my Dockerfile, I pull the most up to date code from a private gitlab repo using a FROM gitlab statment. I am getting a access forbidden error as I have not given my credentials. How do you give your credentials so that I can pull from this private repo?

(Assuming you are talking about Gitlab Container Registry)

To be able to pull docker images from private registries, you need to first run this at the command line:

$ docker login -u $DOCKER_USER -p $DOCKER_PASS

If you are running this in a CI environment, you should set these as secret environment variables.

With Gitlab, I believe it is something along these lines:

$ docker login -u gitlab-ci-token -p $CI_BUILD_TOKEN registry.example.com

See the above linked page (search for "login") to see more examples and instructions.
