About deprecated images

Put the historical deprecated contents here.

• v1.4.2-onbuild-2.0, v1.4-onbuild-2 [(v1.4/alpine-onbuild/Dockerfile)][fluentd-1-4-alpine-onbuild]
• v1.4.2-debian-2.0, v1.4-debian-2 [(v1.4/debian/Dockerfile)][fluentd-1-4-debian]
• v1.4.2-debian-onbuild-2.0, v1.4-debian-onbuild-2, edge-debian-onbuild [(v1.4/debian-onbuild/Dockerfile)][fluentd-1-4-debian-onbuild]

v0.12 images

Support of fluentd v0.12 has ended in 2019. We don't recommend v0.12 for new deployment.

• v0.12.43-2.0, v0.12-2 [(v0.12/alpine/Dockerfile)][fluentd-0-12-alpine]
• v0.12.43-onbuild-2.0, v0.12-onbuild-2 [(v0.12/alpine-onbuild/Dockerfile)][fluentd-0-12-alpine-onbuild]
• v0.12.43-debian-2.0, v0.12-debian-2 [(v0.12/debian/Dockerfile)][fluentd-0-12-debian]
• v0.12.43-debian-onbuild-2.0, v0.12-debian-onbuild-2 [(v0.12/debian-onbuild/Dockerfile)][fluentd-0-12-debian-onbuild]

You can use older versions via tag. See tag page on Docker Hub.

We recommend to use debian version for production because it uses jemalloc to mitigate memory fragmentation issue.

Tips for building your own older image

This section is for existing users. Don't recommend for new deployment.

Alpine version

FROM fluent/fluentd:v1.3-onbuild-1

# below RUN includes plugin as examples elasticsearch is not required
# you may customize including plugins as you wish

RUN apk add --no-cache --update --virtual .build-deps \
        sudo build-base ruby-dev \
 && sudo gem install \
        fluent-plugin-elasticsearch \
 && sudo gem sources --clear-all \
 && apk del .build-deps \
 && rm -rf /tmp/* /var/tmp/* /usr/lib/ruby/gems/*/cache/*.gem

Debian version

FROM fluent/fluentd:v1.3-debian-onbuild-1

# below RUN includes plugin as examples elasticsearch is not required
# you may customize including plugins as you wish

RUN buildDeps="sudo make gcc g++ libc-dev ruby-dev" \
 && apt-get update \
 && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends $buildDeps \
 && sudo gem install \
        fluent-plugin-elasticsearch \
 && sudo gem sources --clear-all \
