Building and Deploying the cAdvisor Docker Container

Building

Building the cAdvisor Docker container is simple, just run:

$ ./deploy/build.sh

Which will statically build the cAdvisor binary and then build the Docker image. The resulting Docker image will be called google/cadvisor:beta. This image is very bare, containing the cAdvisor binary and nothing else.

Deploying

All cAdvisor releases are tagged and correspond to a Docker image. The latest supported release uses the latest tag. We have a beta and canary tag for pre-release versions with newer features. You can see more details about this in the cAdvisor Google Container Registry page.
