⁠Customizing

The image has a couple of ENV vars that can be used for customizing what and how to build:

• GOARCH=arm - the target architecture, arm for RaspberryPi
• GOARM=7 - ARM architecture version - 7 for RasperryPi 3
• BEATS=filebeat,metricbeat - comma-separated list of beats to compile
• BEATS_VERSION=7.14.0 - version to compile

⁠Building the image

docker build -t tschaffter/beats4pi:latest .

⁠Building elastic beats

These commands will clone the repository of elastic/beats, build the selected beats components and output the build result in the current folder:

git clone https://github.com/elastic/beats.git
docker run --rm \
    -v $(pwd)/beats:/go/src/github.com/elastic/beats \
    -v $(pwd):/build \
