Docker.Image reference

Source: src/Docker/Image.ts

Builds, tags, and optionally pushes Docker images through the active Docker context.

This resource uses the Docker CLI and whatever daemon or remote context the CLI is configured to target. It is separate from Cloudflare.Container; registry image references are the boundary between Docker-managed images and cloud container platforms.

Image always builds from a Dockerfile. To pull (and optionally re-tag and push) an existing registry image, use Docker.RemoteImage.

const image = yield* Docker.Image("app", {
name: "my-app",
tag: "latest",
build: {
context: "./app",
dockerfile: "Dockerfile",
args: { NODE_ENV: "production" },
},
});
const image = yield* Docker.Image("app", {
name: "my-app",
build: { context: "./app" },
registry: {
server: "ghcr.io",
username: "octocat",
password: Config.Redacted("GITHUB_TOKEN"),
},
});
const image = yield* Docker.Image("app", {
name: "my-app",
context: "remote-build",
build: { context: "./app" },
});

Source: src/Docker/RemoteImage.ts

Pulls a remote Docker image through the active Docker context, optionally re-tagging it and pushing it to a registry.

The image is available to other Docker resources by imageRef. Use alwaysPull: false when you want to reuse an existing tag in the configured Docker daemon instead of pulling on every deploy. Set targetName/targetTag to re-tag the pulled image, and registry to push it (mirroring it from a source registry into your own, for example).

Pull nginx

const nginx = yield* Docker.RemoteImage("nginx", {
name: "nginx",
tag: "alpine",
});

Reuse an existing daemon tag

const postgres = yield* Docker.RemoteImage("postgres", {
name: "postgres",
tag: "18-alpine",
alwaysPull: false,
});
const mirrored = yield* Docker.RemoteImage("nginx-mirror", {
name: "nginx",
tag: "alpine",
targetName: "acme/nginx",
targetTag: "alpine",
registry: {
server: "ghcr.io",
username: "octocat",
password: Config.Redacted("GITHUB_TOKEN"),
},
});
const nginx = yield* Docker.RemoteImage("nginx", {
name: "nginx",
tag: "alpine",
context: "remote-build",
});
