docker_image

-> Note: The initial (current) version of this resource can only pull public images from the official Docker Hub Registry.

Pulls a Docker image to a given Docker host from a Docker Registry.

This resource will not pull new layers of the image automatically unless used in conjunction with docker_registry_image data source to update the pull_trigger field.

Example Usage

resource "docker_image" "ubuntu" {
    name = "ubuntu:precise"
}

# Access it somewhere else with ${docker_image.ubuntu.latest}

    name = "ubuntu:precise"
}

resource "docker_image" "ubuntu" {
    name = "${data.docker_registry_image.ubuntu.name}"
    pull_trigger = "${data.docker_registry_image.ubuntu.sha256_digest}"
}
