	Use Dockerfile and create Container images automatically. It is also useful for configuration management for Container Images.
[1]	For example, Create a Dockerfile that Nginx is installed and started.

[root@dlp ~]#

vi Dockerfile

# create new

FROM centos
MAINTAINER ServerWorld <admin@srv.world>

RUN dnf -y install nginx
RUN echo "Dockerfile Test on Nginx" > /usr/share/nginx/html/index.html

EXPOSE 80
CMD ["/usr/sbin/nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]

# build image ⇒ docker build -t [image name]:[tag] .

[root@dlp ~]#

podman build -t srv.world/nginx_server:latest .

STEP 1: FROM centos
STEP 2: MAINTAINER ServerWorld <admin@srv.world>
--> 47a4ec064edb6846d07d909d9573bd935123bedbfec1fac891f7d334dce2abda
STEP 3: FROM 47a4ec064edb6846d07d909d9573bd935123bedbfec1fac891f7d334dce2abda

STEP 9: FROM f3afe7e61abc2366eff3da48755f775bdfa6e68180ce8525af391d4d99a200b7
STEP 10: CMD ["/usr/sbin/nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
--> 41c48e1d242161269177ee5668af907ea7a6534a341b5eb489d62eaf767b7612
STEP 11: COMMIT srv.world/nginx_server:latest
