Environment variables

Our full list of environment variables can be found on our documentation page. Please make sure to take a look over our overview page as there are some required variables to get run the images.

Versioning

We publish major, minor and patch versions to docker hub, as well as hotfixes and security updates. This means that you can choose between:

• Patches v8.2.0

  Updates to this tag will receive hotfixes and security updates

• Minor v8.2

  Updates to this tag will receive all patches, hotfixes and security updates

• Major v8

  Updates to this tag will receive all minor updates, patches, hotfixes and security updates

Building

In most cases you'll not need to build anything in this repository because we already distribute built images through docker hub. But if you want to, you'll be able to easily build them with our build script.

Requirements

• Docker
• bash

---

Executing the build script

We can build images using the command build located in bin folder.

Note: If you're getting "-A: invalid option" issues, try updating your bash console. OSX for example ships with older bash versions. These scripts will only work on bash 4 or newer.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/directus/docker.git

# Open the repository directory
cd docker

# Invoke build script
./bin/build --help
