|
Grafana has an official Docker container.
|
2015-04-13 00:55:07 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ docker run -i -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafana
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
All Grafana configuration settings can be defined using environment
|
|
|
|
variables, this is especially useful when using the above container.

## Docker volumes & ENV config
|

|

|
|
|
The Docker container exposes two volumes, the sqlite3 database in the
|
|
|
|
folder `/var/lib/grafana` and configuration files is in `/etc/grafana/`
|
|
|
|
folder. You can map these volumes to host folders when you start the
|
|
|
|
container:
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
|
2015-04-14 09:53:54 -05:00
|
|
|
-v /var/lib/grafana:/var/lib/grafana \
|

|
|
|
-e "GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret \
|
|
|
|
grafana/grafana:develop

|
|
|
In the above example I map the data folder and sets a configuration option via
|
|
|
|
an `ENV` instruction.

|
|
The back-end web server has a number of configuration options. Go the
|
|
|
|
[Configuration](/installation/configuration) page for details on all
|
|
|
|
those options.
