# Packaging your Function
Packaging a function has two parts:
* Create a Docker image for your function with an ENTRYPOINT
* Push your Docker image to a registry (Docker Hub by default)
Once it's pushed to a registry, you can use it by referencing it when adding a route.
## Using fn
This is the easiest way to build, package and deploy your functions.
##
### Creating an image
The basic Dockerfile for most languages is along these lines:
```
# Choose base image
FROM iron/go
# Set the working directory
WORKDIR /function
# Add your binary or code to the working directory
ADD funcbin /function/
# Set what will run when a container is started for this image
ENTRYPOINT ["./funcbin"]
```
Then you simply build your function:
```sh
docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/go/src/$FUNCPKG -w /go/src/$FUNCPKG iron/go:dev go build -o funcbin
docker build -t $USERNAME/myfunction .
```
Or using [fn](../fn/README.md):
```sh
fn build
```
### Push your image
This part is simple:
```sh
docker push $USERNAME/myfunction
```
Or using [fn](../fn/README.md):
```sh
fn push
```
