Yes, it is easier to use if you build an assembly with the layout, and then simply ADD the archive via the Dockerfile. (Recall that ADD will extract the contents of a ZIP or TAR archive, whereas COPY just copies files.) The Maven plugin can easily build the image, register it locally, and optionally push to DockerHub.<div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Apr 17, 2015, at 5:44 PM, Matt Wringe <<a href="mailto:mwringe@redhat.com" class="">mwringe@redhat.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">The docker images are not created and deployed to a docker registry as <br class="">part of the build, it will just create a folder where you can run the <br class="">docker build from.
