Dockerfile

The Fluent Bit Docker images should be built as follows:

Linux

docker build --no-cache -t fluent/fluent-bit:1.3.7 -f Dockerfile .

Windows

Note:

The minimum version of fluent-bit supported is 1.3.7.

The Windows version can be specified when building the Windows image. The instructions below leverage the Windows Server Core 2019 - 1809/ltsc2019 base image. The large Windows Server Core base image is leveraged as the builder, while the smaller Windows Nano base image is leveraged for the final runtime image.

More information is available at:

• Windows Container Base Images
• Windows Container Version Compatibility

In addition, metadata as defined in OCI image spec annotations, is leveraged in the generated image. This is the reason for the additional --build-arg parameters.
