* Package name : docker-squash Version : 1.0.9 Upstream Author : Marek Goldmann * URL : https://github.com/goldmann/docker-squash * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python Description : Helps with organizing docker images layers Docker creates many layers while building the image. Sometimes it's not necessary or desireable to have them in the image. For example a Dockerfile ADD instruction creates a single layer with files you want to make available in the image. Docker will carry this layer always with the image, even if you delete these files in next layer. . Squashing helps with organizing images in logical layers. Instead of having an image with multiple (sometimes) unnecessary layers. . Docker-squash can . * squash last n layers from an image * squash from a selected layer to the end (not always possible, depends on the image) * support for Docker 1.9 or newer (older releases may run perfectly fine too, try it!) * the image can be loaded back to the Docker daemon or stored as tar archive somewhere
