Fluentd is an open source data collector, which lets you unify the data collection and consumption for a better use and understanding of data. https://www.fluentd.org
$ docker run --name fluentd bitnami/fluentd:latest
- Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
- With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
- Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
- All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading linux distribution.
- All Bitnami images available in Docker Hub are signed with Docker Content Trust (DTC). You can use
DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST=1
to verify the integrity of the images. - Bitnami container images are released daily with the latest distribution packages available.
This CVE scan report contains a security report with all open CVEs. To get the list of actionable security issues, find the "latest" tag, click the vulnerability report link under the corresponding "Security scan" field and then select the "Only show fixable" filter on the next page.
Non-root container images add an extra layer of security and are generally recommended for production environments. However, because they run as a non-root user, privileged tasks are typically off-limits. Learn more about non-root containers in our docs.
You can find an example for testing in the file test.yaml
. To launch this sample file run:
$ kubectl apply -f test.yaml
NOTE: If you are pulling from a private containers registry, replace the image name with the full URL to the docker image. E.g.
- image: 'your-registry/image-name:your-version'
NOTE: Debian 8 images have been deprecated in favor of Debian 9 images. Bitnami will not longer publish new Docker images based on Debian 8.
Learn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags in our documentation page.

The recommended way to get the Bitnami Fluentd Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.
$ docker pull bitnami/fluentd:latest
To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the list of available versions in the Docker Hub Registry.
$ docker pull bitnami/fluentd:[TAG]
If you wish, you can also build the image yourself.
$ docker build -t bitnami/fluentd:latest 'https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-fluentd.git#master:1/debian-9'
Using Docker container networking, a different server running inside a container can easily be accessed by your application containers and vice-versa.
Containers attached to the same network can communicate with each other using the container name as the hostname.
$ docker network create fluentd-network --driver bridge
Use the --network <NETWORK>
argument to the docker run
command to attach the container to the fluentd-network
network.
$ docker run --name fluentd-node1 --network fluentd-network bitnami/fluentd:latest
We can launch another containers using the same flag (--network NETWORK
) in the docker run
command. If you also set a name to your container, you will be able to use it as hostname in your network.
To create an endpoint that collects logs on your host just run:
docker run -d -p 24224:24224 -p 24224:24224/udp -v /data:/opt/bitnami/fluentd/log fluentd
Default configurations are:
- configuration file at
/opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/fluentd.conf
- listen port
24224
for Fluentd forward protocol - store logs with tag
docker.**
into/opt/bitnami/fluentd/log/docker.*.log
- store all other logs into
/opt/bitnami/fluentd/log/data.*.log
You can overwrite the default configuration file by mounting your own configuration file on the directory /opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf
:
docker run --name fluentd -v /path/to/fluentd.conf:/opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/fluentd.conf bitnami/fluentd:latest
You can also do this by changing the docker-compose.yml
file present in this repository:
fluentd:
...
volumes:
- /path/to/fluentd.conf:/opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/fluentd.conf
...
You can also extend the default configuration by importing your custom configuration with the "@include" directive. It is a simple as creating a directory with you custom config files and mount it on the directory /opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/conf.d
:
docker run --name fluentd -v /path/to/custom-conf-directory:/opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/conf.d bitnami/fluentd:latest
You can also do this by changing the docker-compose.yml
file present in this repository:
fluentd:
...
volumes:
- /path/to/custom-conf-directory:/opt/bitnami/fluentd/conf/conf.d
...

Environment variable below are configurable to control how to execute fluentd process:
FLUENTD_CONF
: This variable allows you to specify configuration file name that will be used in -c Fluentd command line option. If you want to use your own configuration file (without any optional plugins), you can do it with this environment variable and Docker volumes (-v option of docker run).FLUENTD_OPT
: Use this variable to specify other Fluentd command line options, like -v or -q.FLUENTD_DAEMON_USER
: The user that will run thefluentd
process when the container is run as root.FLUENTD_DAEMON_GROUP
: The group of the user that will run thefluentd
process when the container is run as root.
The Bitnami fluentd Docker image sends the container logs to the stdout
. To view the logs:
$ docker logs fluentd
You can configure the containers logging driver using the --log-driver
option if you wish to consume the container logs differently. In the default configuration docker uses the json-file
driver.
Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of fluentd, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container.
$ docker pull bitnami/fluentd:latest
Stop the currently running container using the command
$ docker stop fluentd
Next, take a snapshot of the persistent volume /path/to/fluentd-persistence
using:
$ rsync -a /path/to/fluentd-persistence /path/to/fluentd-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)
You can use this snapshot to restore the database state should the upgrade fail.
$ docker rm -v fluentd
Re-create your container from the new image, restoring your backup if necessary.
$ docker run --name fluentd bitnami/fluentd:latest
