     5    The Packer Docker Save post-processor takes an artifact from the docker builder that was committed and saves it to a file. This is similar to exporting the Docker image directly from the builder, except that it preserves the hierarchy of images and metadata.

    11  
    12  The Packer Docker Save post-processor takes an artifact from the
    13  [docker builder](/docs/builders/docker.html) that was committed
    14  and saves it to a file. This is similar to exporting the Docker image
    15  directly from the builder, except that it preserves the hierarchy of
    16  images and metadata.
    17  
    18  We understand the terminology can be a bit confusing, but we've
    19  adopted the terminology from Docker, so if you're familiar with that, then
    20  you'll be familiar with this and vice versa.
    21  
    22  ## Configuration
    23  
    24  The configuration for this post-processor is extremely simple.
    25  
    26  * `path` (string) - The path to save the image.
    27  
    28  ## Example
    29  
    30  An example is shown below, showing only the post-processor configuration:
    31  
    32  ```javascript
    33  {
    34    "type": "docker-save",
    35    "path": "foo.tar"
    36  }
    37  ```
