+The *module.json* file controls how modules are built and deployed. IoT Edge module projects in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code include the *module.json* file. This file has configuration details for the IoT Edge module, like the version and platform used when building the module.

-| image.buildOptions | The build arguments used when running `docker build`. |
-| image.contextPath | The context path used when running `docker build`. By default, it's the current folder of the *module.json* file. If your Docker build needs files not included in the current folder such as a reference to an external package or project, set the **contextPath** to the root path of all necessary files.
