docker: Save all tags of the image.
$ docker save --output ${filename-tar} ${image_name}
try on your machine

This command is used in Docker to save an image as a tar archive file.

Here is a breakdown of the command components:

  • docker save: This is the command to save Docker images.
  • --output: This option is used to specify the output file for saving the image. ${filename-tar} is a placeholder for the desired output file name with the ".tar" extension.
  • ${image_name}: This is the name of the Docker image that you want to save.

When you execute this command, Docker will save the specified image as a tar archive file with the provided file name. This file can be shared and transferred easily or later loaded back into Docker using the docker load command.
