docker commit

Create a new image from a container’s changes.

• Create an image from a specific container:

docker commit {container} {image}:{tag}

• Apply a `CMD` Dockerfile instruction to the created image:

docker commit --change="CMD {command}" {container} {image}:{tag}

• Apply an `ENV` Dockerfile instruction to the created image:

docker commit --change="ENV {name}={value}" {container} {image}:{tag}

• Create an image with a specific author in the metadata:

docker commit --author="{author}" {container} {image}:{tag}

• Create an image with a specific comment in the metadata:

docker commit --message="{comment}" {container} {image}:{tag}

• Create an image without pausing the container during commit:

docker commit --pause={false} {container} {image}:{tag}

docker commit --help
