DOCKER(1)

✨ NAME ✨

docker-context-import — bestie, this is the one that imports a context from a tar or zip file 💖 (yes that's the whole vibe, we're pulling a context in from an archive, periodt)

This page lives in the Docker User Manuals family, iykyk 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

docker context import CONTEXT FILE|-

That's it. That's the whole thing. CONTEXT is where it's going, and FILE|- is where it's coming from — and yes, that - means exactly what you think it means 👀

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so, lowkey the whole point: import a context from a tar or zip file. 🗂️✨

That's the entire description. No secret extra modes, no hidden flags, nothing. It's giving "simple and iconic." You hand it a CONTEXT name, you hand it a FILE (a tar or a zip), and boom — context imported. 💅

Not me being dramatic but: the - in FILE|- is literally part of the syntax, so don't drop it when you're typing this out, bestie 😭

That's a wrap, babe 🌈 — this page came straight from the Docker Community, dated Oct 2026, and it's part of the Docker User Manuals (that's DOCKER(1) energy, no cap 💅). Go import something. Slay. 💖
