Non-root container images add an extra layer of security and are generally recommended for production environments. However, because they run as a non-root user, privileged tasks are typically off-limits. Learn more about non-root containers in our docs.
Starting December 10th 2024, only the latest stable branch of any container will receive updates in the free Bitnami catalog. To access up-to-date releases for all upstream-supported branches, consider upgrading to Bitnami Premium. Previous versions already released will not be deleted. They are still available to pull from DockerHub.
Please check the Bitnami Premium page in our partner Arrow Electronics for more information.

You can see the equivalence between the different tags by taking a look at the tags-info.yaml
file present in the branch folder, i.e bitnami/ASSET/BRANCH/DISTRO/tags-info.yaml

The recommended way to get the Bitnami NGINX Exporter Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.
docker pull bitnami/nginx-exporter:latest
To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the list of available versions in the Docker Hub Registry.
docker pull bitnami/nginx-exporter:[TAG]
If you wish, you can also build the image yourself by cloning the repository, changing to the directory containing the Dockerfile and executing the docker build
command. Remember to replace the APP
, VERSION
and OPERATING-SYSTEM
path placeholders in the example command below with the correct values.
git clone https://github.com/bitnami/containers.git
cd bitnami/APP/VERSION/OPERATING-SYSTEM
docker build -t bitnami/APP:latest .
Using Docker container networking, a different server running inside a container can easily be accessed by your application containers and vice-versa.
Containers attached to the same network can communicate with each other using the container name as the hostname.
Step 1: Create a network
docker network create nginx-exporter-network --driver bridge
Step 2: Launch the nginx-exporter container within your network
Use the --network <NETWORK>
argument to the docker run
command to attach the container to the nginx-exporter-network
network.
docker run --name nginx-exporter-node1 --network nginx-exporter-network bitnami/nginx-exporter:latest
Step 3: Run another containers
We can launch another containers using the same flag (--network NETWORK
) in the docker run
command. If you also set a name to your container, you will be able to use it as hostname in your network.
Find all the configuration flags in the NGINX Prometheus Exporter official documentation.
The Bitnami NGINX Exporter Docker image sends the container logs to stdout
. To view the logs:
docker logs nginx-exporter
You can configure the containers logging driver using the --log-driver
option if you wish to consume the container logs differently. In the default configuration docker uses the json-file
driver.
Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of NGINX Exporter, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container.
Step 1: Get the updated image
docker pull bitnami/nginx-exporter:latest
Step 2: Stop the running container
Stop the currently running container using the command
docker stop nginx-exporter
Step 3: Remove the currently running container
docker rm -v nginx-exporter
Step 4: Run the new image
Re-create your container from the new image.
docker run --name nginx-exporter bitnami/nginx-exporter:latest
