## Build a RAGFlow Docker Image

To build a RAGFlow Docker image from source code:

### Git Clone the Repository

```bash
git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git
```

### Build the Docker Image

Navigate to the `ragflow` directory where the Dockerfile and other necessary files are located. Now you can build the Docker image using the provided Dockerfile. The command below specifies which Dockerfile to use and tages the image with a name for reference purpose.

```bash
cd ragflow/
docker build -f Dockerfile.scratch -t infiniflow/ragflow:dev .
```
