I assume OP meant something like this, building the image on the remote host directly using a docker context (which is different from a build context)
docker context create my-awesome-remote-context --docker "host=ssh://user@remote-host"
docker --context my-awesome-remote-context build . -t my-image:latest
This way you end up with `my-image:latest` on the remote host too. It has the advantage of not transferring the entire image but only transferring the build context. It builds the actual image on the remote host.
