# Docker Import Post-Processor
Type: `docker-import`
The Packer Docker import post-processor takes an artifact from the [docker
builder](/docs/builders/docker.html) and imports it with Docker locally. This
allows you to apply a repository and tag to the image and lets you use the other
Docker post-processors such as
[docker-push](/docs/post-processors/docker-push.html) to push the image to a
registry.
## Configuration
The configuration for this post-processor only requires a `repository`, a `tag`
is optional.
- `repository` (string) - The repository of the imported image.
- `tag` (string) - The tag for the imported image. By default this is not set.
## Example
An example is shown below, showing only the post-processor configuration:
```json
{
"type": "docker-import",
"repository": "mitchellh/packer",
"tag": "0.7"
}
```
This example would take the image created by the Docker builder and import it
into the local Docker process with a name of `mitchellh/packer:0.7`.
Following this, you can use the
[docker-push](/docs/post-processors/docker-push.html) post-processor to push it
to a registry, if you want.
