This function is analogous to the <command>docker build</command> command,

Since a given <varname>imageName</varname> may transparently refer to a
|
|
manifest list of images which support multiple architectures and/or
|
|
operating systems, you can supply the <option>--os</option> and
|
|
<option>--arch</option> arguments to specify exactly which image you want.
|
|
By default it will match the OS and architecture of the host the command is
|
|
run on.

Desired image name and tag can be set using

<option>--final-image-name</option> and <option>--final-image-tag</option>

arguments:

This function is analogous to the <command>docker export</command> command,
|
|
in that it can be used to flatten a Docker image that contains multiple
|
|
layers. It is in fact the result of the merge of all the layers of the
|
|
image. As such, the result is suitable for being imported in Docker with
|
|
<command>docker import</command>.
|
|
</para>

Using this function requires the <literal>kvm</literal> device to be

available.

The parameters of <varname>exportImage</varname> are the following:

The parameters relative to the base image have the same synopsis as

described in <xref linkend='ssec-pkgs-dockerTools-buildImage'/>, except that
|
|
<varname>fromImage</varname> is the only required argument in this case.

</para>

<para>

The <varname>name</varname> argument is the name of the derivation output,

This constant string is a helper for setting up the base files for managing

being used in a <varname>runAsRoot</varname>
