Is there a way to pull the built docker image from the [resin.io](http://resin.io) build server?

Would like to use as a base image to then layer other components on from private registry. Can just build a new application and build everything from start, but current build times run to hours, would like to not repeat the component builds if possible

Hello,

can you take a look at our docs here: [https://docs.resin.io/configuration/custom-docker-base-images/](https://docs.resin.io/configuration/custom-docker-base-images/)

and let us know if that helps?

Best,  
ilias

Hello,

so I was informed that this is not supported at the moment in the exact way you describe it.  
However, we support multi-stage docker builds that perhaps you will find useful.  
You can read a blog post here: [https://resin.io/blog/multi-stage-docker-builds-for-tiny-iot-images/](https://resin.io/blog/multi-stage-docker-builds-for-tiny-iot-images/)  
and you can also take a look at some sample projects here:  
[https://github.com/resin-io-playground/nodejs-multistage-docker](https://github.com/resin-io-playground/nodejs-multistage-docker)  
and here:  
[https://github.com/resin-io-playground/golang-multistage-docker](https://github.com/resin-io-playground/golang-multistage-docker)
