Docker Apache Flume
Docker image for the deployment of an Apache Flume server.
Starting the container
To start the container use following command:
docker run --name some_flume -e FLUME_AGENT_NAME=myagent -d alonsodomin/flume
Configuring Flume
The container comes with the bare minimum needed to start flume and use the example configuration that comes with the standard Apache Flume distribution.
To include your own configuration you can mount it inside the container in
the /opt/lib/flume/conf folder.
docker run --name some_flume -e FLUME_AGENT_NAME=myagent -v /path/to/conf:/opt/lib/flume/conf -d alonsodomin/flume
If you want more advance configuration (setting up sources listening on specific ports) then the recommended approach is to extend this image and expose the ports that you might be interested in.
