Why use Bitnami Images?

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 (DCT). You can use DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST=1 to verify the integrity of the images.
Bitnami container images are released on a regular basis with the latest distribution packages available.

How to deploy Keycloak in Kubernetes?

Deploying Bitnami applications as Helm Charts is the easiest way to get started with our applications on Kubernetes. Read more about the installation in the Bitnami Keycloak Chart GitHub repository.

Why use a non-root container?

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.

Supported tags and respective `Dockerfile` links

Learn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags in our documentation page.

18, 18-debian-11, 18.0.2, 18.0.2-debian-11-r4, latest (18/debian-11/Dockerfile)

Get this image

The recommended way to get the Bitnami keycloak Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.

$ docker pull bitnami/keycloak: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/keycloak:[TAG]

If you wish, you can also build the image yourself.

$ docker build -t bitnami/keycloak:latest 'https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-keycloak.git#master:18/debian-11'

Configuration

Admin credentials

The Bitnami Keycloak container can create a default admin user by setting the following environment variables:

KEYCLOAK_CREATE_ADMIN_USER: Create administrator user on boot. Default: true.
KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_USER: Administrator default user. Default: user.
KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD: Administrator default password. Default: bitnami.
KEYCLOAK_MANAGEMENT_USER: WildFly default management user. Default: manager.
KEYCLOAK_MANAGEMENT_PASSWORD: WildFly default management password. Default: bitnami1.

Connecting to a PostgreSQL database

The Bitnami Keycloak container requires a PostgreSQL database to work. This is configured with the following environment variables:

KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_HOST: PostgreSQL host. Default: postgresql.
KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_PORT: PostgreSQL port. Default: 5432.
KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_NAME: PostgreSQL database name. Default: bitnami_keycloak.
KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_USER: PostgreSQL database user. Default: bn_keycloak.
KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_PASSWORD: PostgreSQL database password. No defaults.
KEYCLOAK_DATABASE_SCHEMA: PostgreSQL database schema. Default: public.
KEYCLOAK_JDBC_PARAMS: PostgreSQL database JDBC parameters (example: sslmode=verify-full&connectTimeout=30000). No defaults.

Port and address binding

The listening port and listening address can be configured with the following environment variables:

KEYCLOAK_HTTP_PORT: Keycloak HTTP port. Default: 8080.
KEYCLOAK_HTTPS_PORT: Keycloak HTTPS port. Default: 8443.
KEYCLOAK_BIND_ADDRESS: Keycloak bind address. Default: 0.0.0.0.

Extra arguments to Keycloak startup

In case you want to add extra flags to the Keycloak use the KEYCLOAK_EXTRA_ARGS variable. Example:

$ docker run --name keycloak \
  -e KEYCLOAK_EXTRA_ARGS="-Dkeycloak.profile.feature.scripts=enabled" \
  bitnami/keycloak:latest

Initializing a new instance

When the container is launched, it will execute the files with extension .sh located at /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d.

In order to have your custom files inside the docker image you can mount them as a volume.

$ docker run --name keycloak \
  -v /path/to/init-scripts:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d \
  bitnami/keycloak:latest

Or with docker-compose

keycloak:
  image: bitnami/keycloak:latest
  volumes:
    - /path/to/init-scripts:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d

TLS Encryption

The Bitnami Keycloak Docker image allows configuring TLS encryption between nodes and between server-client. This is done by mounting in /opt/bitnami/keycloak/certs two files:

keystore: File with the server keystore
truststore: File with the server truststore

Note: find more information about how to create these files at the Keycloak documentation.

Apart from that, the following environment variables must be set:

KEYCLOAK_ENABLE_TLS: Enable TLS encryption using the keystore. Default: false.
KEYCLOAK_TLS_KEYSTORE_FILE: Path to the keystore file (e.g. /opt/bitnami/keycloak/certs/keystore.jks). No defaults.
KEYCLOAK_TLS_TRUSTSTORE_FILE: Path to the truststore file (e.g. /opt/bitnami/keycloak/certs/truststore.jks). No defaults.
KEYCLOAK_TLS_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD: Password for accessing the keystore. No defaults.
KEYCLOAK_TLS_TRUSTSTORE_PASSWORD: Password for accessing the truststore. No defaults.

Adding custom themes

In order to add new themes to Keycloak, you can mount them to the /opt/bitnami/keycloak/themes folder. The example below mounts a new theme.

version: '2'
services:
  postgresql:
    image: docker.io/bitnami/postgresql:latest
    environment:
      - ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
      - POSTGRESQL_USERNAME=bn_keycloak
      - POSTGRESQL_DATABASE=bitnami_keycloak
    volumes:
      - 'postgresql_data:/bitnami/postgresql'
  keycloak:
    image: docker.io/bitnami/keycloak:latest
    ports:
      - "80:8080"
    environment:
      - KEYCLOAK_CREATE_ADMIN_USER=true
    depends_on:
      - postgresql
    volumes:
      - './mynewtheme:/opt/bitnami/keycloak/themes/mynewtheme'
volumes:
  postgresql_data:
    driver: local

Enabling statistics

The Bitnami Keycloak container can activate different set of statistics (database, jgroups and http) by setting the environment variable KEYCLOAK_ENABLE_STATISTICS=true.

Full configuration

The image looks for configuration files in the /bitnami/keycloak/configuration/ directory, this directory can be changed by setting the KEYCLOAK_MOUNTED_CONF_DIR environment variable.

$ docker run --name keycloak \
    -v /path/to/standalone-ha.xml:/bitnami/keycloak/configuration/standalone-ha.xml \
    bitnami/keycloak:latest

Or with docker-compose

keycloak:
  image: bitnami/keycloak:latest
  volumes:
    - /path/to/standalone-ha.xml:/bitnami/keycloak/configuration/standalone-ha.xml:ro

After that, your changes will be taken into account in the server's behaviour.

Notable Changes

17-debian-10

Keycloak 17 is powered by Quarkus and to deploy it in production mode it is necessary to set up TLS. To do this you need to set KEYCLOAK_PRODUCTION to true and configure TLS
