A full-featured, enterprise-grade artifact registry you can self-host in minutes. Drop-in replacement for JFrog Artifactory and Sonatype Nexus with zero feature gates — security scanning, SSO, replication, all 45+ package formats — everything ships in the open-source release.
No open-core. No “enterprise edition.” No surprise invoices.
| Repository | Description | Stack |
|---|---|---|
artifact-keeper |
Backend server, CLI, and Docker deployment | Rust, Axum, PostgreSQL, Meilisearch |
artifact-keeper-web |
Web frontend | Next.js 15, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui |
artifact-keeper-ios |
iOS & macOS app | SwiftUI, Swift 6, Alamofire |
artifact-keeper-android |
Android app | Jetpack Compose, Kotlin, Material 3 |
artifact-keeper-api |
OpenAPI 3.1 spec (165 endpoints) | TypeScript + Rust SDK generation |
artifact-keeper-example-plugin |
Example WASM plugin (Unity .unitypackage) | Rust, WIT, Wasmtime |
45+ Package Formats — Native protocol support. Not a generic blob store with format labels. Your package managers (pip install, npm install, docker pull, cargo add, helm install, go get, etc.) talk directly to Artifact Keeper using their native protocols.
Security Scanning — Automated vulnerability detection with Trivy and Grype. Policy engine with severity thresholds, quarantine workflows, and scan-before-download enforcement.
WASM Plugin System — Extend with custom format handlers via WebAssembly. Ship your own package format support without forking the backend.
Edge Replication — Mesh-based artifact distribution with swarm sync and P2P transfers between nodes. Put caches close to your build agents.
SSO & Multi-Auth — OpenID Connect, LDAP, SAML 2.0, JWT, and API tokens. RBAC with per-repository permissions.
Artifactory Migration — Built-in tooling to migrate repositories, artifacts, users, and permissions from JFrog Artifactory. One command.
Full-Text Search — Meilisearch-powered search across all repositories, packages, and artifact metadata.
Manage your registries from anywhere. Monitor builds, browse repositories, trigger security scans, and administer users — all from native mobile apps with adaptive layouts.

A full management interface for repositories, packages, security policies, user administration, SSO configuration, replication topology, and operational analytics.
# Clone and start with Docker Compose
git clone https://github.com/artifact-keeper/artifact-keeper.git
cd artifact-keeper
docker compose up -d
# That's it. Visit http://localhost:9080
Or pull the pre-built images directly:
# Backend (required)
docker pull ghcr.io/artifact-keeper/artifact-keeper-backend:latest
# Web dashboard (recommended)
docker pull ghcr.io/artifact-keeper/artifact-keeper-web:latest
Full deployment guides for Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS are in the docs.
