Fluentd is an open source data collector, which lets you unify the data collection and consumption for a better use and understanding of data.
These tags have image version postfix. This updates many places so we need feedback for improve/fix the images.
Current images use fluentd v1 series.

Tip
About deprecated old images, See DEPRECATED
We recommend to use debian version for production because it uses jemalloc to mitigate memory fragmentation issue.
Check fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset images.
This image is based on the popular Debian images and Alpine Linux project, available in the alpine official image.
Latest released version of Fluentd.
Latest version of vX.Y Fluentd branch.
A will be incremented when image has major changes.
When fluentd version is updated, A is reset to 1.
Concrete vX.Y.Z version of Fluentd. This tag is recommeded for the production environment.
A will be incremented when image has major changes.
B will be incremented when image has small changes, e.g. library update or bug fixes.
When fluentd version is updated, A.B is reset to 1.0.
The image based on Debian Linux image.
You may use this image when you require plugins which cannot be installed on Alpine (like fluent-plugin-systemd).
The armhf images use ARM base images for use on devices such as Raspberry Pis.
Furthermore, the base images enable support for cross-platform builds using the cross-build tools from resin.io.
In order to build these images natively on ARM devices, the CROSS_BUILD_START and CROSS_BUILD_END Docker build arguments must be set to the shell no-op (:), for example:
docker build --build-arg CROSS_BUILD_START=":" --build-arg CROSS_BUILD_END=":" -t fluent/fluentd:v1.3-onbuild-1 v1.3/armhf/alpine-onbuild(assuming the command is run from the root of this repository).
These images/tags are kept for backward compatibility. No update anymore and don't use for new deployment. Use "current images" instead.
These tags are obsolete, already removed to avoid confusing.
Use edge, vX.Y-A or vX.Y.Z-A.B images instead.
Latest version of vX.Y Fluentd branch.
Concrete vX.Y.Z version of Fluentd.
onbuild images are deprecated. Use non-onbuild images instead to build your image.
New images, v1.5 or later, don't provide onbuild version.
Same as current images.
To create endpoint that collects logs on your host just run:
docker run -d -p 24224:24224 -p 24224:24224/udp -v /data:/fluentd/log fluent/fluentd:v1.3-debian-1Default configurations are to:
- listen port
24224for Fluentd forward protocol - store logs with tag
docker.**into/fluentd/log/docker.*.log(and symlinkdocker.log) - store all other logs into
/fluentd/log/data.*.log(and symlinkdata.log)
fluentd arguments can be appended to the docker run line
For example, to provide a bespoke config and make fluentd verbose, then:
docker run -ti --rm -v /path/to/dir:/fluentd/etc fluent/fluentd -c /fluentd/etc/<conf> -v
The first -v tells Docker to share '/path/to/dir' as a volume and mount it at /fluentd/etc
The -c after the container name (fluentd) tells fluentd where to find the config file
The second -v is passed to fluentd to tell it to be verbose
Use -u option with docker run.
docker run -p 24224:24224 -u foo -v ...
Check HOWTOBUILD explanation.
