# Usage
|
|
|
|
After [installation](./00-installation.md) you probably want to use `image-builder`. A general workflow would be to find the image type you want to build and then build it.
|
|
|
|
Let's take a look at the available `x86_64` image types for Fedora 41 and build one of them.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ image-builder list-images --filter arch:x86_64 --filter distro:fedora-41
|
|
fedora-41 type:ami arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:container arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:image-installer arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-bootable-container arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-commit arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-container arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-installer arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-qcow2-image arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-raw-image arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:iot-simplified-installer arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:live-installer arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:minimal-raw arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:oci arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:openstack arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:ova arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:qcow2 arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:vhd arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:vmdk arch:x86_64
|
|
fedora-41 type:wsl arch:x86_64
|
|
$ image-builder build --distro fedora-41 qcow2
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Blueprints
|
|
|
|
Images can be customized with [blueprints](https://osbuild.org/docs/user-guide/blueprint-reference). For example we could build the `qcow2` we built above with some customizations applied.
|
|
|
|
We'll be adding the `nginx`, and `haproxy` packages and enabling their services so they start on boot. We'll also add a user by the name `user` with an ssh key and set the hostname of the machine:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ cat blueprint.toml
|
|
packages = [
|
|
{ name = "nginx" },
|
|
{ name = "haproxy" },
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
[customizations]
|
|
hostname = "mynewmachine.home.arpa"
|
|
|
|
[customizations.services]
|
|
enabled = ["nginx", "haproxy"]
|
|
|
|
[[customizations.user]]
|
|
name = "user"
|
|
key = "ssh-ed25519 AAAAC..."
|
|
$ sudo image-builder build --blueprint blueprint.toml --distro fedora-41 qcow2
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
