Official docker image for JMeter
Hello,
Don’t you think we should publish an official docker image for JMeter?
Many organizations don’t trust current available images and look for
official one from Apache.
Is there some documentation on what is required to publish a Docker image
using ASF account ?
Thanks

Another thing that might be useful would be setting up a separate github
repo for the containerization code. Something you guys can look at as a
reference would be ForgeRocks Identity platform called forgeops.

Note that the docker file [1] currently uses archive.apache.org which
is not intended for downloading the current version of JMeter.
If there is to be an official docker image (or even just a docker
file) it must use the mirror system for downloads of the current
release(s).

Re: Official docker image for JMeter
Posted by Philippe Mouawad <ph...@gmail.com>.
Hello Brian,
That is a good start, I have used for example and existing image which
helps in setup:
- https://hub.docker.com/r/egaillardon/jmeter
I think Docker is a standard nowadays and having an official image will
help spread JMeter and ease setup for existing.
I would add to the list, some OS tuning in TCP stack, and user limits under
linux.
Maybe a next step would be to have a helm chart to ease distribution on
Kubernetes

Philippe

Re: Official docker image for JMeter
Posted by Brian Wolfe <wo...@gmail.com>.
I have containerized a few applications. Question is, what is the purpose for this? Distributed load testing or automated testing?
Sounds good, but how will the jmeter master talk to other jmeter server instances?
Thing is most people would want to deploy this on a kubernetes cluster which could have multiple pods/instances of jmeter server.
In kubernetes you would have an ingress controller redirect traffic to the pods. So you wouldnt know the exact ip of each pod. I dont think jmeter works in that fashion.
We could probably start off with a generic docker that can just run jobs independently through docker running on a particular host and port.
Controling the linux distro and java is the easy part. We first have to have a goal for what we want the docker image to do. We could use alpine linux and openjdk8 to run it. I think alpine licensing is free.
We could then host the official image on dockerhub, if apache is okay with that.

If you are not sure what is permitted, then ask infra.
Personally, I don't see the point, given how easy it is to unpack a
binary archive.

Hi Felix,
I looked at this which made me think there was some ASF specifics for docker

I am not sure.
* ASF says it distributes source artifacts, only (which all (java)
projects - that I know of - are somehow ignoring by publishing binary
distributions)
* Every docker image that can run JMeter would probably have some non
Apache licensed ingredients. I am not sure how we could distribute those
as an ASF project
* There are so many more moving parts, that we would have to monitor
(linux distribution, Java distribution, plugins, ...) that I am unsure,
how we could handle that load
Apart from that, I think an official Image would be nice.

Posted by Franz Schwab <fr...@exasol.com>.
Hi Philippe,
+1 for that - as I already thought about setting up a docker image for my use case on my own. If there was an official docker image, that would make life much easier.
Talked with my colleagues lately about vagrant, ansible, docker, automation in general for different use cases.
Best regards,
Franz

Hello,
Don’t you think we should publish an official docker image for JMeter?
Many organizations don’t trust current available images and look for official one from Apache.
Is there some documentation on what is required to publish a Docker image using ASF account ?
Thanks
