Pull moveit_pro CI images from ECR instead of Docker Hub

[JWhitleyWork]

[written by AI]

Refs PickNikRobotics/moveit_pro#22796

needs: moveit_pro/#22796

Motivation

moveit_pro's v9.4 branch stops publishing pull-request and branch images to Docker Hub — that registry now carries release tags only. Both images this workflow resolves therefore move to the private moveit-pro-ci ECR repository, and this branch has to follow or every integration run pulls a tag nobody writes.

Brief description

The resolve step composes ECR references instead of Docker Hub ones. The needs: moveit_pro/#N path keys on the moveit_pro PR number (moveit-pro-ci:pr-<N>-<ros_distro>-amd64) rather than the sanitized head branch, matching what moveit_pro sends on the repository_dispatch path byte for byte; the base-branch fallback keys on branch-<base ref>. sanitizeBranch and the Docker Hub owner are gone with their last callers.

Nothing logs in to pull these: the picknik-16-amd64-gpu runner pod carries amazon-ecr-credential-helper wired to a pull-only IRSA role, which is how moveit_pro's own E2E lane already pulls the same repository.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Updated continuous integration image resolution to use the private container registry by default.
  • Added support for overriding the container registry configuration.
  • Improved pull request and fallback image selection for CI workflows.
  • Removed obsolete Docker Hub configuration.

Walkthrough

The CI workflow now resolves images from the private moveit-pro-ci ECR repository. The registry is configurable. Paired pull requests use PR-number tags, and fallback images use branch tags.

Changes

CI image resolution

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Registry configuration and documentation .github/workflows/ci.yaml	The workflow replaces Docker Hub configuration with CONTAINER_REGISTRY_URL, defaults to the ECR registry, and updates image source documentation.
PR and fallback image tags .github/workflows/ci.yaml	Paired moveit_pro pull requests use PR-number tags. Fallback images use moveit-pro-ci branch tags. The unused branch sanitization helper is removed.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to abeed

Pull requests targeting slash-named branches can fail to pull their fallback CI image. Normalize the branch tag before merging.

Explanation

The pull request changes CI/CD configuration in .github/workflows/ci.yaml. It changes image resolution from Docker Hub to the private moveit-pro-ci ECR repository, changes PR and branch tag construction, adds a configurable registry variable, and relies on ECR credentials on the GPU runner. These changes directly affect image pulls and execution on the picknik-16-amd64-gpu runner, with potential runner use and cost if references or credentials fail.

Ran the CodeRabbit CLI over this branch (coderabbit review --agent -t committed --base origin/v9.4). Two findings, both the same Major issue as the inline comment, and both correct.

The base-branch fallback composed branch-<image_tag> from a raw ref. A Docker tag cannot contain /, so a base branch like release/9.4 produced a reference that could never resolve. It also would not have matched the published tag, since moveit_pro's set_docker_cache_source rewrites / to _ and every other character outside [A-Za-z0-9_.-] to _ before publishing branch-*.

The fallback now applies that same normalization, and only there — image_tag stays raw because it also names the ccache namespace. Checked both directions: release/9.4 composes branch-release_9.4, and v10.1 and main are unchanged.

Worth noting this was pre-existing rather than introduced here: the old Docker Hub fallback interpolated the same raw ref. Moving the tag into ECR did not create the bug, but it is the same line, so it is fixed here.
