Create a new filesystem image from the contents of a tarball (.tar,
.tar.gz, .tgz, .bzip, .tar.xz, .txz) into it, then optionally tag it.

Import from a remote location
# docker image import http://example.com/exampleimage.tgz example/imagerepo
Import from a local file
Import to docker via pipe and stdin:
# cat exampleimage.tgz | docker image import - example/imagelocal
Import with a commit message.
# cat exampleimage.tgz | docker image import --message "New image imported from tarball" - exampleimagelocal:new
Import to a Docker image from a local file.
# docker image import /path/to/exampleimage.tgz
Import from a local file and tag
Import to docker via pipe and stdin:
# cat exampleimageV2.tgz | docker image import - example/imagelocal:V-2.0
Import from a local directory
# tar -c . | docker image import - exampleimagedir
Apply specified Dockerfile instructions while importing the image
