最后，能够 通过Docker API构建映像 。

样本Dockerfile：

# cat Dockerfile

FROM ubuntu:14.04
RUN mkdir demo
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get -y install vim

创建一个包含您的Dockerfile的tar文件。

# tar -cvf Dockerfile.tar.gz Dockerfile

执行以下API，有关更多选项，请参考此。

# curl -v -X POST -H "Content-Type:application/tar" --data-binary '@Dockerfile.tar.gz' http://127.0.0.1:5000/build?t=build_test
