ko build
ko build
Build and publish container images from the given importpaths.
Synopsis
This sub-command builds the provided import paths into Go binaries, containerizes them, and publishes them.
ko build IMPORTPATH... [flags]
Examples
# Build and publish import path references to a Docker Registry as:
# ${KO_DOCKER_REPO}/<package name>-<hash of import path>
# When KO_DOCKER_REPO is ko.local, it is the same as if --local and
# --preserve-import-paths were passed.
# If the import path is not provided, the current working directory is the
# default.
ko build github.com/foo/bar/cmd/baz github.com/foo/bar/cmd/blah
# Build and publish a relative import path as:
# ${KO_DOCKER_REPO}/<package name>-<hash of import path>
# When KO_DOCKER_REPO is ko.local, it is the same as if --local and
# --preserve-import-paths were passed.
ko build ./cmd/blah
# Build and publish a relative import path as:
# ${KO_DOCKER_REPO}/<import path>
# When KO_DOCKER_REPO is ko.local, it is the same as if --local was passed.
ko build --preserve-import-paths ./cmd/blah
# Build and publish import path references to a Docker daemon as:
# ko.local/<import path>
# This always preserves import paths.
ko build --local github.com/foo/bar/cmd/baz github.com/foo/bar/cmd/blah
Options
--bare Whether to just use KO_DOCKER_REPO without additional context (may not work properly with --tags).
-B, --base-import-paths Whether to use the base path without MD5 hash after KO_DOCKER_REPO (may not work properly with --tags).
--disable-optimizations Disable optimizations when building Go code. Useful when you want to interactively debug the created container.
-h, --help help for build
--image-label strings Which labels (key=value) to add to the image.
--image-refs string Path to file where a list of the published image references will be written.
--insecure-registry Whether to skip TLS verification on the registry
-j, --jobs int The maximum number of concurrent builds (default GOMAXPROCS)
-L, --local Load into images to local docker daemon.
--oci-layout-path string Path to save the OCI image layout of the built images
--platform strings Which platform to use when pulling a multi-platform base. Format: all | <os>[/<arch>[/<variant>]][,platform]*
-P, --preserve-import-paths Whether to preserve the full import path after KO_DOCKER_REPO.
--push Push images to KO_DOCKER_REPO (default true)
--sbom string The SBOM media type to use (none will disable SBOM synthesis and upload, also supports: spdx, cyclonedx, go.version-m). (default "spdx")
--sbom-dir string Path to file where the SBOM will be written.
--tag-only Include tags but not digests in resolved image references. Useful when digests are not preserved when images are repopulated.
-t, --tags strings Which tags to use for the produced image instead of the default 'latest' tag (may not work properly with --base-import-paths or --bare). (default [latest])
--tarball string File to save images tarballs
