[[build-image]]
== Packaging OCI Images
The plugin can create an https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec[OCI image] from a jar or war file using https://buildpacks.io[Cloud Native Buildpacks] (CNB).
Images can be built using the `bootBuildImage` task.

NOTE: For security reasons, images build and run as non-root users.
See the {buildpacks-reference}/reference/spec/platform-api/#users[CNB specification] for more details.

The task is automatically created when the `java` or `war` plugin is applied and is an instance of {boot-build-image-javadoc}[`BootBuildImage`].

NOTE: The `bootBuildImage` task can not be used with a <<packaging-executable-configuring-launch-script, fully executable Spring Boot archive>> that includes a launch script.
Disable launch script configuration in the `bootJar` task when building a jar file that is intended to be used with `bootBuildImage`.

[[build-image-docker-daemon]]
=== Docker Daemon
The `bootBuildImage` task requires access to a Docker daemon.
By default, it will communicate with a Docker daemon over a local connection.
This works with https://docs.docker.com/install/[Docker Engine] on all supported platforms without configuration.

Environment variables can be set to configure the `bootBuildImage` task to use the https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/tasks/docker_daemon/[Docker daemon provided by minikube].
The following table shows the environment variables and their values:

|===
| Environment variable | Description

| DOCKER_HOST
| URL containing the host and port for the Docker daemon - e.g. `tcp://192.168.99.100:2376`

| DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY
| Enable secure HTTPS protocol when set to `1` (optional)

| DOCKER_CERT_PATH
| Path to certificate and key files for HTTPS (required if `DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1`, ignored otherwise)
|===

On Linux and macOS, these environment variables can be set using the command `eval $(minikube docker-env)` after minikube has been started.

Docker daemon connection information can also be provided using `docker` properties in the plugin configuration.
The following table summarizes the available properties:

|===
| Property | Description

| `host`
| URL containing the host and port for the Docker daemon - e.g. `tcp://192.168.99.100:2376`

| `tlsVerify`
| Enable secure HTTPS protocol when set to `true` (optional)

| `certPath`
| Path to certificate and key files for HTTPS (required if `tlsVerify` is `true`, ignored otherwise)
|===

For more details, see also <<build-image-example-docker,examples>>.



[[build-image-docker-registry]]
=== Docker Registry
If the Docker images specified by the `builder` or `runImage` properties are stored in a private Docker image registry that requires authentication, the authentication credentials can be provided using `docker.builderRegistry` properties.

If the generated Docker image is to be published to a Docker image registry, the authentication credentials can be provided using `docker.publishRegistry` properties.

Properties are provided for user authentication or identity token authentication.
Consult the documentation for the Docker registry being used to store images for further information on supported authentication methods.

The following table summarizes the available properties for `docker.builderRegistry` and `docker.publishRegistry`:

|===
| Property | Description

| `username`
| Username for the Docker image registry user. Required for user authentication.

| `password`
| Password for the Docker image registry user. Required for user authentication.

| `url`
| Address of the Docker image registry. Optional for user authentication.

| `email`
| E-mail address for the Docker image registry user. Optional for user authentication.

| `token`
| Identity token for the Docker image registry user. Required for token authentication.
|===

For more details, see also <<build-image-example-docker,examples>>.



[[build-image-customization]]
=== Image Customizations
The plugin invokes a {buildpacks-reference}/concepts/components/builder/[builder] to orchestrate the generation of an image.
The builder includes multiple {buildpacks-reference}/concepts/components/buildpack[buildpacks] that can inspect the application to influence the generated image.
By default, the plugin chooses a builder image.
The name of the generated image is deduced from project properties.

Task properties can be used to configure how the builder should operate on the project.
The following table summarizes the available properties and their default values:

|===
| Property | Command-line option | Description | Default value

| `builder`
| `--builder`
| Name of the Builder image to use.
| `paketobuildpacks/builder:base`

| `runImage`
| `--runImage`
| Name of the run image to use.
| No default value, indicating the run image specified in Builder metadata should be used.

| `imageName`
| `--imageName`
| {spring-boot-api}/buildpack/platform/docker/type/ImageReference.html#of-java.lang.String-[Image name] for the generated image.
| `docker.io/library/${project.name}:${project.version}`

| `pullPolicy`
| `--pullPolicy`
| {spring-boot-api}/buildpack/platform/build/PullPolicy.html[Policy] used to determine when to pull the builder and run images from the registry.
Acceptable values are `ALWAYS`, `NEVER`, and `IF_NOT_PRESENT`.
| `ALWAYS`

| `environment`
|
| Environment variables that should be passed to the builder.
|

| `buildpacks`
|
a|Buildpacks that the builder should use when building the image.
Only the specified buildpacks will be used, overriding the default buildpacks included in the builder.
Buildpack references must be in one of the following forms:

* Buildpack in the builder - `[urn:cnb:builder:]<buildpack ID>[@<version>]`
* Buildpack in a directory on the file system - `[file://]<path>`
* Buildpack in a gzipped tar (.tgz) file on the file system - `[file://]<path>/<file name>`
* Buildpack in an OCI image - `[docker://]<host>/<repo>[:<tag>][@<digest>]`
| None, indicating the builder should use the buildpacks included in it.

| `bindings`
|
a|https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/[Volume bind mounts] that should be mounted to the builder container when building the image.
The bindings will be passed unparsed and unvalidated to Docker when creating the builder container.
Bindings must be in one of the following forms:

* `<host source path>:<container destination path>[:<options>]`
* `<host volume name>:<container destination path>[:<options>]`

Where `<options>` can contain:

* `ro` to mount the volume as read-only in the container
* `rw` to mount the volume as readable and writable in the container
* `volume-opt=key=value` to specify key-value pairs consisting of an option name and its value
|

| `cleanCache`
| `--cleanCache`
| Whether to clean the cache before building.
| `false`

| `verboseLogging`
|
| Enables verbose logging of builder operations.
| `false`

| `publish`
| `--publishImage`
| Whether to publish the generated image to a Docker registry.
| `false`
|===

NOTE: The plugin detects the target Java compatibility of the project using the JavaPlugin's `targetCompatibility` property.
When using the default Paketo builder and buildpacks, the plugin instructs the buildpacks to install the same Java version.
You can override this behaviour as shown in the <<build-image-example-builder-configuration,builder configuration>> examples.



[[build-image-examples]]
=== Examples



[[build-image-example-custom-image-builder]]
==== Custom Image Builder and Run Image
If you need to customize the builder used to create the image or the run image used to launch the built image, configure the task as shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-builder.gradle[tags=builder]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-builder.gradle.kts[tags=builder]
----

This configuration will use a builder image with the name `mine/java-cnb-builder` and the tag `latest`, and the run image named `mine/java-cnb-run` and the tag `latest`.

The builder and run image can be specified on the command line as well, as shown in this example:

[indent=0]
----
	$ gradle bootBuildImage --builder=mine/java-cnb-builder --runImage=mine/java-cnb-run
----



[[build-image-example-builder-configuration]]
==== Builder Configuration
If the builder exposes configuration options, those can be set using the `environment` property.

The following is an example of {paketo-java-reference}/#configuring-the-jvm-version[configuring the JVM version] used by the Paketo Java buildpacks at build time:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env.gradle[tags=env]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env.gradle.kts[tags=env]
----

If there is a network proxy between the Docker daemon the builder runs in and network locations that buildpacks download artifacts from, you will need to configure the builder to use the proxy.
When using the Paketo builder, this can be accomplished by setting the `HTTPS_PROXY` and/or `HTTP_PROXY` environment variables as show in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env-proxy.gradle[tags=env]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env-proxy.gradle.kts[tags=env]
----



[[build-image-example-runtime-jvm-configuration]]
==== Runtime JVM Configuration
Paketo Java buildpacks {paketo-java-reference}/#runtime-jvm-configuration[configure the JVM runtime environment] by setting the `JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS` environment variable.
The buildpack-provided `JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS` value can be modified to customize JVM runtime behavior when the application image is launched in a container.

Environment variable modifications that should be stored in the image and applied to every deployment can be set as described in the {paketo-reference}/buildpacks/configuration/#environment-variables[Paketo documentation] and shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env-runtime.gradle[tags=env-runtime]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-env-runtime.gradle.kts[tags=env-runtime]
----



[[build-image-example-custom-image-name]]
==== Custom Image Name
By default, the image name is inferred from the `name` and the `version` of the project, something like `docker.io/library/${project.name}:${project.version}`.
You can take control over the name by setting task properties, as shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-name.gradle[tags=image-name]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-name.gradle.kts[tags=image-name]
----

Note that this configuration does not provide an explicit tag so `latest` is used.
It is possible to specify a tag as well, either using `${project.version}`, any property available in the build or a hardcoded version.

The image name can be specified on the command line as well, as shown in this example:

[indent=0]
----
	$ gradle bootBuildImage --imageName=example.com/library/my-app:v1
----



[[build-image-example-buildpacks]]
==== Buildpacks
By default, the builder will use buildpacks included in the builder image and apply them in a pre-defined order.
An alternative set of buildpacks can be provided to apply buildpacks that are not included in the builder, or to change the order of included buildpacks.
When one or more buildpacks are provided, only the specified buildpacks will be applied.

The following example instructs the builder to use a custom buildpack packaged in a `.tgz` file, followed by a buildpack included in the builder.

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-buildpacks.gradle[tags=buildpacks]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-buildpacks.gradle.kts[tags=buildpacks]
----

Buildpacks can be specified in any of the forms shown below.

A buildpack located in a CNB Builder (version may be omitted if there is only one buildpack in the builder matching the `buildpack-id`):

* `urn:cnb:builder:buildpack-id`
* `urn:cnb:builder:buildpack-id@0.0.1`
* `buildpack-id`
* `buildpack-id@0.0.1`

A path to a directory containing buildpack content (not supported on Windows):

* `\file:///path/to/buildpack/`
* `/path/to/buildpack/`

A path to a gzipped tar file containing buildpack content:

* `\file:///path/to/buildpack.tgz`
* `/path/to/buildpack.tgz`

An OCI image containing a https://buildpacks.io/docs/buildpack-author-guide/package-a-buildpack/[packaged buildpack]:

* `docker://example/buildpack`
* `docker:///example/buildpack:latest`
* `docker:///example/buildpack@sha256:45b23dee08...`
* `example/buildpack`
* `example/buildpack:latest`
* `example/buildpack@sha256:45b23dee08...`



[[build-image-example-publish]]
==== Image Publishing
The generated image can be published to a Docker registry by enabling a `publish` option and configuring authentication for the registry using `docker.publishRegistry` properties.

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-publish.gradle[tags=publish]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-publish.gradle.kts[tags=publish]
----

The publish option can be specified on the command line as well, as shown in this example:

[indent=0]
----
	$ gradle bootBuildImage --imageName=docker.example.com/library/my-app:v1 --publishImage
----



[[build-image-example-docker]]
==== Docker Configuration
If you need the plugin to communicate with the Docker daemon using a remote connection instead of the default local connection, the connection details can be provided using `docker` properties as shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-host.gradle[tags=docker-host]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-host.gradle.kts[tags=docker-host]
----

If the builder or run image are stored in a private Docker registry that supports user authentication, authentication details can be provided using `docker.buiderRegistry` properties as shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-auth-user.gradle[tags=docker-auth-user]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-auth-user.gradle.kts[tags=docker-auth-user]
----

If the builder or run image is stored in a private Docker registry that supports token authentication, the token value can be provided using `docker.builderRegistry` as shown in the following example:

[source,groovy,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="primary"]
.Groovy
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-auth-token.gradle[tags=docker-auth-token]
----

[source,kotlin,indent=0,subs="verbatim,attributes",role="secondary"]
.Kotlin
----
include::../gradle/packaging/boot-build-image-docker-auth-token.gradle.kts[tags=docker-auth-token]
----
