This command is used in Docker to create a new image based on a container. Here's an explanation of each part of the command:
docker commit
: This is the Docker command used to create a new image from a container.--author="${author}"
: This flag is used to specify the author of the new image. The value of the${author}
variable should be provided when running the command.${container}
: This is the container ID or name of the container that you want to create an image from.${image}:${tag}
: This is the name and tag of the new image that will be created. The${image}
variable represents the name of the image, and the${tag}
variable represents the version or tag of the image.
Putting it all together, the command docker commit --author="${author}" ${container} ${image}:${tag}
is used to create a new Docker image from a container, specifying the author and providing a name and tag for the new image.
