Multiarch image creation date and history

[nevergone]

Hi, I use this docker registry UI and I have an issue...

Bug description

I build a multiarch Docker image with folowing command:
docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm/v6,linux/arm/v7 --output=type=image,push=true,registry.insecure=false -t nevergone/test-latest

But image creation date and image history is not available (see attached screenshot). What do I do wrong? The images are created (I tried it) and I can also upload them to Docker Hub.
Thanks!

For service bug, steps to reproduce the behavior:
My docker-compose file

services:
  registry:
    image: registry:2
    ports:
      - 5000:5000
    environment:
      DEBUG: true
      REGISTRY_STORAGE_DELETE_ENABLED: true
      REGISTRY_CATALOG_MAXENTRIES: 100000
    volumes:
      - ./registry-config/simple.yml:/etc/docker/registry/config.yml
      - ./registry:/var/lib/registry/
  ui:
    image: joxit/docker-registry-ui:latest
    ports:
      - 8082:80
    environment:
      REGISTRY_TITLE: Private Docker Registry

It's because buildx exports oci index.
To workaround that you can add --provenance=false to your build command.

But I don't see how the registry UI couldn't support this for multiarch builds.
From looking at the API response this is what getting the manifest from a tag returns, e.g. v2/<image name>/manifests/latest:

            }
        }
    ]
}

When using digest of the previous manifest like when you are using application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.list.v2+json to get the actual image here:

docker-registry-ui/src/scripts/docker-image.js

Lines 102 to 111 in bc80050

	const response = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
	if (response.mediaType === 'application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.list.v2+json' && self.opts.list) {
	self.trigger('list', response);
	const manifest = response.manifests[0];
	const image = new DockerImage(self.name, manifest.digest, { ...self.opts, list: false });
	eventTransfer(image, self);
	image.fillInfo();
	self.variants = [image];
	return;
	}

As this is the response from the second manifest GET, e.g. v2/<image name>/manifests/sha256:9f38533c3ac11fe5b6d9c08aa5f683887159ecbc01ee65635b2fb3ab6de57ab0:

And using that config blob returns the history as the current system expects.

Thanks, it's working! :)
