In the above example I map the data folder and sets a configuration option via
an `ENV` instruction.
an `ENV` instruction.
See the [docker volumes documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/volumes/volumes/) if you want to create a volume to use with the Grafana docker image instead of a bind mount (binding to a directory in the host system).
## Configuration
The back-end web server has a number of configuration options. Go the
All options defined in conf/grafana.ini can be overridden using environment
variables by using the syntax `GF_<SectionName>_<KeyName>`.
For example:
```bash
$ docker run \
-d \
-p 3000:3000 \
--name=grafana \
-e "GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL=http://grafana.server.name" \
-e "GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret" \
grafana/grafana
```
You can use your own grafana.ini file by using environment variable `GF_PATHS_CONFIG`.
The back-end web server has a number of configuration options. Go to the
[Configuration]({{< relref "configuration.md" >}}) page for details on all
those options.
## Installing Plugins for Grafana
Pass the plugins you want installed to docker with the `GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS` environment variable as a comma separated list. This will pass each plugin name to `grafana-cli plugins install ${plugin}`.
```bash
docker run \
-d \
-p 3000:3000 \
--name=grafana \
-e "GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS=grafana-clock-panel,grafana-simple-json-datasource" \
grafana/grafana
```
## Running a Specific Version of Grafana
```bash
# specify right tag, e.g. 4.5.2 - see Docker Hub for available tags
$ docker run \
-d \
-p 3000:3000 \
--name grafana \
grafana/grafana:4.5.2
```
## Configuring AWS Credentials for CloudWatch Support
```bash
$ docker run \
-d \
-p 3000:3000 \
--name=grafana \
-e "GF_AWS_PROFILES=default" \
-e "GF_AWS_default_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-e "GF_AWS_default_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_SECRET_KEY" \
-e "GF_AWS_default_REGION=us-east-1" \
grafana/grafana
```
You may also specify multiple profiles to `GF_AWS_PROFILES` (e.g.
`GF_AWS_PROFILES=default another`).
Supported variables:
- `GF_AWS_${profile}_ACCESS_KEY_ID`: AWS access key ID (required).
- `GF_AWS_${profile}_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`: AWS secret access key (required).
- `GF_AWS_${profile}_REGION`: AWS region (optional).
