OpenTofu is available as [OCI container images](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/pkgs/container/opentofu),
and distributed via public GitHub Packages registry.
:::warning Warning!
Do not use the OCI container image as a base image. This is not supported and will stop working with OpenTofu 1.10.
Instead, follow the [instructions below to build your own OpenTofu image](#building-your-own-image).

## Building your own image
The OCI image published by OpenTofu is intended as a basic command line tool. If you need additional tools in the image
or want to build services on top of OpenTofu, you will need to build your own image. This section outlines how to
accomplish that.
### Step 1: Obtaining the installation script
OpenTofu publishes POSIX/Powershell installation scripts. You can use these scripts to safely install OpenTofu in your
container image. Please follow the [standalone installation instructions](standalone.mdx) to obtain the installation
script and place it next to your `Dockerfile`/`Containerfile`.
### Step 2: Creating a stage for installation
Next, you can start creating a download stage in your `Dockerfile`/`Containerfile`. For details on multi-stage builds
please read the [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-stage/).
```Dockerfile
FROM alpine:3.20 AS tofu
ADD install-opentofu.sh /install-opentofu.sh
RUN chmod +x /install-opentofu.sh
RUN apk add gpg
RUN ./install-opentofu.sh --install-method standalone --install-path / --symlink-path -
```
## Step 3: Creating your own image
Now you can add your image below the installation stage and copy the `tofu` binary into it:
```Dockerfile
FROM alpine:3.20 AS tofu
ADD install-opentofu.sh /install-opentofu.sh
RUN chmod +x /install-opentofu.sh
RUN apk add gpg
RUN ./install-opentofu.sh --install-method standalone --install-path / --symlink-path -
## This is your stage:
FROM ubuntu
COPY --from=tofu /tofu /usr/local/bin/tofu
# Add your commands here
```
