This article explains how to backup or share custom Docker Image between computers without docker hub.

Backing a docker image is very important. There is a good chance the original maintainer upgraded their image which doesn't work for you or you accidentally upgraded your image and your app stopped working.

It is also very handy if images needs to be shared between developers without actually rebuilding from source.
