Build Model Image

To build a model image for Model, follow these steps:

Install the latest Python SDK:

pip install instill-sdk

Within your custom model directory, run the build command with your user ID, model ID, and optional model version tag:

instill build {NAMESPACE_ID}/{MODEL_ID}:{VERSION_TAG}

The image name follows standard Docker image naming conventions, where NAMESPACE_ID is the user or organization ID, MODEL_ID is the model ID, and VERSION_TAG is the image version tag. Note that the model version tag will default to latest if not provided.

📘
If you are building on a different architecture (i.e., arm64 or amd64) than the one you are deploying on, you must explicitly specify the target architecture using the --target-arch flag. If unspecified, the target architecture will default to that of the system you are building on.

After you see output similar to the following, the image building process has finished successfully:
