How to Mock Multi-Stage Docker Builds in Python
Simulate a multi-stage Docker build in pure Python using classes and temp directories to understand how build stages copy artifacts into a final image.
# Simulate multi-stage Docker build with pure Python
from pathlib import Path
import tempfile
import shutil
class BuildContext:
"""Mimics a Docker build context with stages."""
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
self.files = {}
def add_file(self, dest, content):

Simulate a Dockerfile multi-stage build process in Python using dataclasses to validate stage ordering and file availability before you write the real Dockerfile.
from dataclasses import dataclass
from pathlib import Path
@dataclass
class BuildStage:
name: str
base_image: str
files: list[str]
commands: list[str]
def run_build(stage: BuildStage, context_dir: Path):
print(f"=== Stage: {stage.name} (base: {stage.base_image}) ===")
