Follow the instructions below to build the Datadog Docker Agent image for a given <AGENT_VERSION> Agent version (above v6.0).
Clone the Datadog Agent repository:
git clone https://github.com/DataDog/datadog-agent.git
Go into the datadog-agent/Dockerfile/agent/ folder:
cd datadog-agent/Dockerfile/agent/
Switch to the Agent version branch you want to build the Agent from:
git branch <AGENT_VERSION> && git checkout <AGENT_VERSION>
Download the Agent Debian package that corresponds to the Agent version you want. Choose between the AMD and ARM architecture:
curl https://s3.amazonaws.com/apt.datadoghq.com/pool/d/da/datadog-agent_<AGENT_VERSION>-1_amd64.deb -o datadog-agent_<AGENT_VERSION>-1_amd64.deb
curl https://s3.amazonaws.com/apt.datadoghq.com/pool/d/da/datadog-agent_<AGENT_VERSION>-1_arm64.deb -o datadog-agent_<AGENT_VERSION>-1_arm64.deb
Note: The full list of Debian packages available can be found on this APT listing.
Build the Agent image by running:
docker build --build-arg <BUILD_ARGS> --file amd64/Dockerfile --pull --tag <IMAGE_TAG> .
docker build --build-arg <BUILD_ARGS> --file arm64/Dockerfile --pull --tag <IMAGE_TAG> .
For instance to build the Agent version 7.17.0 on the AMD architecture you would run:
docker build --build-arg DD_AGENT_ARTIFACT=./datadog-agent_7.17.0-1_amd64.deb --file amd64/Dockerfile --pull --tag documentation-example .
Available <BUILD_ARGS> are:
| Argument | Definition | Default |
|---|---|---|
| PYTHON_VERSION | The Python runtime version for your Agent check. | - |
| WITH_JMX | If set to true, the Agent container contains the JMX fetch logic. | false |
| DD_AGENT_ARTIFACT | Path to the Agent Debian artifact package to use if not in the same folder. | - |
