apache/skywalking-oap-server repository overview

⁠Apache SkyWalking OAP Server Images

SkyWalking: an APM(application performance monitor) system, especially designed for microservices, cloud native and container-based (Docker, Kubernetes, Mesos) architectures.

⁠How to use this image

⁠Start the storage, OAP and Booster UI with docker-compose

As a quick start, you can use our one-liner script to start ElasticSearch or BanyanDB⁠ as the storage, OAP server and Booster UI, please make sure you have installed Docker.

Linux, macOS, Windows (WSL)

bash <(curl -sSL https://skywalking.apache.org/quickstart-docker.sh) 

Windows (Powershell)

Invoke-Expression ([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString((Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://skywalking.apache.org/quickstart-docker.ps1 -UseBasicParsing).Content))

You will be prompted to choose the storage type, and then the script will start the backend cluster with the selected storage.

To tear down the cluster, run the following command:

docker compose --project-name=skywalking-quickstart down

⁠Start a standalone container with H2 storage

docker run --name oap --restart always -d apache/skywalking-oap-server:10.1.0

⁠Start a standalone container with BanyanDB as storage, whose address is banyandb:17912

docker run --name oap --restart always -d -e SW_STORAGE=banyandb -e SW_STORAGE_BANYANDB_TARGETS=banyandb:17912 apache/skywalking-oap-server:10.1.0

⁠Start a standalone container with ElasticSearch 7 as storage, whose address is elasticsearch:9200

docker run --name oap --restart always -d -e SW_STORAGE=elasticsearch -e SW_STORAGE_ES_CLUSTER_NODES=elasticsearch:9200 apache/skywalking-oap-server:10.1.0

⁠Configuration

We could set up environment variables to configure this image. They are defined in backend-setup⁠.

⁠Extend image

If you intend to override or add config files in /skywalking/config, /skywalking/ext-config is the location for you to put extra files. The files with the same name will be overridden; otherwise, they will be added to /skywalking/config.

If you want to add more libs/jars into the classpath of OAP, for example, new metrics for OAL. These jars can be mounted into /skywalking/ext-libs, then entrypoint bash will append them into the classpath. Notice, you can't override an existing jar in classpath.
