VyOS toplevel build
===================
**For the most up-to-date documentation, please read
[the online build docs at docs.vyos.io](https://docs.vyos.io/en/latest/contributing/build-vyos.html)**

# Building installation images
## Prerequisites
To build a VyOS 1.2.0 image, you need Debian 8 "Jessie" environment (with
jessie-backports repository).
If you are working on a Debian Jessie machine, no special preparation is needed,
you only need to enable jessie-backports and install build dependencies.
If you are interested which individual packages are required please check our
[Dockerfile](docker/Dockerfile) which holds the most complete documentation
of required packages. Listing individual packages here tend to be always
outdated. We try to list required packages in groups through their inheritance
in the [Dockerfile](docker/Dockerfile).
### Debootstrap
If you do not have a Debian Jessie machine, you may create a chroot environment
with the [debootstrap](https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap) tool.
For example, on another version of Debian or another Debian-based distro, these
commands will work:
```bash
$ sudo apt-get install debootstrap
$ sudo debootstrap jessie vyos-chroot
$ sudo chroot vyos-chroot
$ echo "deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie-backports main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
$ apt-get update -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false
```
**NOTE:** We recommend to use the Docker build method
### Docker
**NOTE:** Currently the image can only be build with docker on Linux system
# Building images using Docker
Using our [Dockerfile](docker/Dockerfile) you create your own Docker container
that is used to build a VyOS ISO image or other required VyOS packages. The
