========
|
|
|
|
|
|
-To use Docker Builder, assemble the steps into a text file (commonly referred to
|
|
|
-as a Dockerfile) and supply this to `docker build` on STDIN, like so:
|
|
|
+To build an image from a source repository, create a description file called `Dockerfile`
|
|
|
+at the root of your repository. This file will describe the steps to assemble
|
|
|
+the image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``docker build - < Dockerfile``
|
|
|
+Then call `docker build` with the path of your source repository as argument:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ``docker build .``
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You can specify a repository and tag at which to save the new image if the
|
|
|
+build succeeds:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ``docker build -t shykes/myapp .``
|
|
|
|
|
|
Docker will run your steps one-by-one, committing the result if necessary,
|
|
|
before finally outputting the ID of your new image.
