# Keycloak Image
For more information, see the [Running Keycloak in a container guide](https://www.keycloak.org/server/containers).

## Build the image

It is possible to download the Keycloak distribution from a URL:

    docker build --build-arg KEYCLOAK_DIST=http://<HOST>:<PORT>/keycloak-<VERSION>.tar.gz . -t <YOUR_TAG>

Alternatively, you need to build the local distribution first, then copy the distributions tar package in the `container` folder and point the build command to use the image:

    cp $KEYCLOAK_SOURCE/quarkus/dist/target/keycloak-<VERSION>.tar.gz .
    docker build --build-arg KEYCLOAK_DIST=keycloak-<VERSION>.tar.gz . -t <YOUR_TAG>
