Agent Docker Images

Instead of manually installing TeamCity agents and setting up required build software, you can do the following:

• Pull a required JetBrains "TeamCity Agent" Docker image. You can choose between a "minimal" (the basic agent image without any 3rd-party tools) and regular/full (bundled with multiple tools such as Git and .NET Runtime) Docker images.

• Execute the docker run ... command to start a container with a TeamCity agent running within.

  docker run -e SERVER_URL="<url to TeamCity server>"  \
      -v <path to agent config folder>:/data/teamcity_agent/conf  \
      jetbrains/teamcity-agent

tip

You can also start a TeamCity server inside a container. See instructions on this page for more information: jetbrains/teamcity-server.

note

Since 3rd-party tool vendors may not provide binaries for every OS/architecture, some images may include fewer installed components compared to the others. For instance, ARM-based images do not include Perforce CLI (p4) and Windows images ship without Mercurial.
