ch-pull2tar - Pull image from a Docker Hub and flatten into tarball

$ ch-pull2tar IMAGE[:TAG] OUTDIR


Pull a Docker image named IMAGE[:TAG] from Docker Hub and flatten it into a Charliecloud tarball in directory OUTDIR.

This runs the following command sequence: docker pull, ch-builder2tar but provides less flexibility than the individual commands.

Sudo privileges are required for docker pull.

Additional arguments:

print help and exit
print version and exit



$ ch-pull2tar alpine /var/tmp
