How to setup external Epinio registry​

Epinio allows the use of an external registry for the storage of application images. This can be achieved by setting the following variables during the helm install:

helm install \
--set containerregistry.enabled=false \
--set global.registryURL=$REGISTRY_URL \
--set global.registryNamespace=$REGISTRY_NAMESPACE \
--set global.registryUsername=$REGISTRY_USER \
--set global.registryPassword=$REGISTRY_PASSWORD \
... (other options here) \
epinio epinio/epinio

Using dockerhub as an example, the user would have to set the value of $REGISTRY_URL to registry.hub.docker.com, $REGISTRY_USER and $REGISTRY_PASSWORD would be set to the dockerhub credentials, and $REGISTRY_NAMESPACE would be either an organization or the username.

When the above arguments are set, Epinio doesn't deploy a registry on the cluster.
