# context export
```markdown
Usage: docker context export [OPTIONS] CONTEXT [FILE|-]
Export a context to a tar or kubeconfig file
Options:
--kubeconfig Export as a kubeconfig file
```
## Description
Exports a context in a file that can then be used with `docker context import` (or with `kubectl` if `--kubeconfig` is set).
Default output filename is `<CONTEXT>.dockercontext`, or `<CONTEXT>.kubeconfig` if `--kubeconfig` is set.
To export to `STDOUT`, you can run `docker context export my-context -`.
