To build a Docker image with Azure CLI, you can follow these steps:
1. Create a Dockerfile: Open a text editor and create a new file called "Dockerfile" (without any file extension). This file will contain the instructions to build your Docker image.
2. Specify the base image: Add the following line to your Dockerfile to specify the base image to use. In this case, we'll use the official Azure CLI image from Microsoft.
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/azure-cli
3. (Optional) Set any additional configurations: If you need to configure your image further, you can add additional instructions to the Dockerfile. For example, you might want to install additional tools or copy files into the image. Add the necessary instructions based on your requirements.
4. Build the Docker image: Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where your Dockerfile is located. Run the following command to build the Docker image:
docker build -t my-azure-cli-image .
This command tells Docker to build an image with the tag "my-azure-cli-image" using the Dockerfile in the current directory (`.`).
5. Wait for the build to complete: Docker will execute the instructions in the Dockerfile and build the image. It may take some time, depending on your internet connection and the complexity of the Dockerfile.
6. Verify the image: Once the build process finishes successfully, you can verify that the image was created by running the following command:
docker images
This command lists all the Docker images available on your system. You should see your newly built image, "my-azure-cli-image," listed there.
Now you have successfully built a Docker image with Azure CLI. You can use this image to create containers and run Azure CLI commands within them.
