# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1.7

# Opt-in extension dependencies at build time (space-separated directory names).
# Example: docker build --build-arg OPENCLAW_EXTENSIONS="diagnostics-otel matrix" .
#
# Multi-stage build produces a minimal runtime image without build tools,
# source code, or Bun. Works with Docker, Buildx, and Podman.
# The ext-deps stage extracts only the package.json files we need from
# extensions/, so the main build layer is not invalidated by unrelated
# extension source changes.
#
# Two runtime variants:
#   Default (bookworm):      docker build .
#   Slim (bookworm-slim):    docker build --build-arg OPENCLAW_VARIANT=slim .
