    Provides a Linode Image resource. This can be used to create, modify, and delete Linodes Images. Linode Images are snapshots of a Linode Instance Disk which can then be used to provision more Linode Instances. Images can be used across regions.

    For more information, see Linode’s documentation on Images and the Linode APIv4 docs.

    Create Image Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    Constructor syntax

              opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None)
    
    @overload
    def Image(resource_name: str,
              opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None,
