Container Images

Quarkus provides extensions for building (and pushing) container images. Currently, it supports:

Container Image extensions

Jib

The extension quarkus-container-image-jib is powered by Jib for performing container image builds. The major benefit of using Jib with Quarkus is that all the dependencies (everything found under target/lib) are cached in a different layer than the actual application making rebuilds really fast and small (when it comes to pushing). Another important benefit of using this extension is that it provides the ability to create a container image without having to have any dedicated client side tooling (like Docker) or running daemon processes (like the Docker daemon) when all that is needed is the ability to push to a container image registry.

To use this feature, add the following extension to your project:

CLI
quarkus extension add container-image-jib
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='container-image-jib'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='container-image-jib'
In situations where all that is needed to build a container image and no push to a registry is necessary (essentially by having set quarkus.container-image.build=true and left quarkus.container-image.push unset - it defaults to false), then this extension creates a container image and registers it with the Docker daemon. This means that although Docker isn’t used to build the image, it is nevertheless necessary. Also note that using this mode, the built container image will show up when executing docker images.

Including extra files

There are cases when additional files (other than ones produced by the Quarkus build) need to be added to a container image. To support these cases, Quarkus copies any file under src/main/jib into the built container image (which is essentially the same idea that the Jib Maven and Gradle plugins support). For example, the presence of src/main/jib/foo/bar would result in /foo/bar being added into the container filesystem.

JVM Debugging

There are cases where the built container image may need to have Java debugging conditionally enabled at runtime.

When the base image has not been changed (and therefore ubi8/openjdk-11-runtime, ubi8/openjdk-17-runtime, or ubi8/openjdk-21-runtime is used), then the quarkus.jib.jvm-additional-arguments configuration property can be used in order to make the JVM listen on the debug port at startup.

The exact configuration is:

quarkus.jib.jvm-additional-arguments=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket\\,server=y\\,suspend=n\\,address=*:5005

Other base images might provide launch scripts that enable debugging when an environment variable is set, in which case you would set than environment variable when launching the container.

Custom Entrypoint

The quarkus.jib.jvm-entrypoint configuration property can be used to completely override the container entry point and can thus be used to either hard code the JVM debug configuration or point to a script that handles the details.

For example, if the base images ubi8/openjdk-11-runtime, ubi8/openjdk-17-runtime or ubi8/openjdk-21-runtime are used to build the container, the entry point can be hard-coded on the application properties file.

Example application.properties
quarkus.jib.jvm-entrypoint=java,-Dcustom.param=custom_value,-jar,quarkus-run.jar

Or a custom start-up script can be created and referenced on the properties file. This approach works better if there’s a need to set application params using environment variables:

Example application.properties
quarkus.jib.jvm-entrypoint=/bin/sh,run-java.sh
Example src/main/jib/home/jboss/run-java.sh
java \
  -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/deployments/truststore \
  -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword="$TRUST_STORE_PASSWORD" \
  -jar quarkus-run.jar
/home/jboss is the WORKDIR for all quarkus binaries in the base images ubi8/openjdk-11-runtime, ubi8/openjdk-17-runtime and ubi8/openjdk-21-runtime (Dockerfile for ubi8/openjdk-17-runtime)

Multi-module projects and layering

When building a multi-module project containing a Quarkus application as one module and various supporting project dependencies as other modules, Quarkus supports placing these supporting modules in a separate container image layer from the rest of the application dependencies, with the expectation that these supporting modules will change more frequently than the regular application dependencies - thus making a rebuild faster if the application dependencies have not changed.

To enable this feature, the property quarkus.bootstrap.workspace-discovery needs to be set to true either as a system property when invoking the build tool, either as a build tool property. Setting this property in application.properties will not work because this property needs to be known very early on in the build process.

AppCDS

Quarkus supports generating and including an Application Class Data Sharing archive when generating a container image using Jib. See the AppCDS documentation for more details.

Docker

The extension quarkus-container-image-docker is using the Docker binary and the generated Dockerfiles under src/main/docker in order to perform Docker builds.

To use this feature, add the following extension to your project.

CLI
quarkus extension add container-image-docker
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='container-image-docker'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='container-image-docker'

The quarkus-container-image-docker extension is capable of creating multi-platform (or multi-arch) images using docker buildx build. See the quarkus.docker.buildx.* configuration items in the Docker Options section below.

docker buildx build ONLY supports loading the result of a build to docker images when building for a single platform. Therefore, if you specify more than one argument in the quarkus.docker.buildx.platform property, the resulting images will not be loaded into docker images. If quarkus.docker.buildx.platform is omitted or if only a single platform is specified, it will then be loaded into docker images.

This means that if you want to build images for more than one platform at a time (i.e. quarkus.docker.buildx.platform=linux/amd64,linux/arm64), you need to push the images (quarkus.container-image.push=true) directly as part of the build process. Docker buildx does not support loading into the local registry when building multi-platform images.

Podman

The extension quarkus-container-image-podman uses Podman and the generated Dockerfiles under src/main/docker in order to perform container builds.

To use this feature, add the following extension to your project.

CLI
quarkus extension add container-image-podman
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='container-image-podman'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='container-image-podman'
When to use Docker vs Podman extension

The Docker extension is and has always been backwards-compatible with Podman because Podman exposes a Docker-compatible API. You can build container images with Podman using the Docker extension (see the Using Podman with Quarkus guide).

Use either the quarkus-container-image-docker or quarkus-container-image-podman extension when doing things specific to either Docker or Podman, respectively.

For example, building multi-platform images is implemented differently for Docker and Podman. Docker uses the buildx plugin whereas Podman can build multi-platform images natively. Because of this, you would need to use the specific extension to perform that function.

OpenShift

The extension quarkus-container-image-openshift is using OpenShift binary builds in order to perform container builds inside the OpenShift cluster. The idea behind the binary build is that you just upload the artifact and its dependencies to the cluster and during the build they will be merged to a builder image (defaults to fabric8/s2i-java).

The benefit of this approach, is that it can be combined with OpenShift’s DeploymentConfig that makes it easy to roll out changes to the cluster.

To use this feature, add the following extension to your project.

CLI
quarkus extension add container-image-openshift
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='container-image-openshift'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='container-image-openshift'

OpenShift builds require creating a BuildConfig and two ImageStream resources, one for the builder image and one for the output image. The creation of such objects is being taken care of by the Quarkus Kubernetes extension.

Buildpack

The extension quarkus-container-image-buildpack is using buildpacks in order to perform container image builds. Under the hood buildpacks will use a Docker daemon for the actual build. While buildpacks support alternatives to Docker, this extension will only work with Docker.

Additionally, the user will have to configure which build image to use (no default image is provided). For example:

quarkus.buildpack.jvm-builder-image=<jvm builder image>

or for native:

quarkus.buildpack.native-builder-image=<native builder image>

To use this feature, add the following extension to your project.

CLI
quarkus extension add container-image-buildpack
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='container-image-buildpack'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='container-image-buildpack'
When using the buildpack container image extension it is strongly advised to avoid adding quarkus.container-image.build=true in your properties configuration as it might trigger nesting builds within builds. It’s preferable to pass it as an option to the build command instead.

Building

To build a container image for your project, quarkus.container-image.build=true needs to be set using any of the ways that Quarkus supports.

CLI
quarkus build -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true
Maven
./mvnw install -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true
Gradle
./gradlew build -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true
If you ever want to build a native container image and already have an existing native image you can set -Dquarkus.native.reuse-existing=true and the native image build will not be re-run.

Using @QuarkusIntegrationTest

To run tests on the resulting image, quarkus.container-image.build=true needs to be set using any of the ways that Quarkus supports.

Maven
./mvnw verify -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true
Gradle
./gradlew quarkusIntTest -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true

Pushing

To push a container image for your project, quarkus.container-image.push=true needs to be set using any of the ways that Quarkus supports.

CLI
quarkus build -Dquarkus.container-image.push=true
Maven
./mvnw install -Dquarkus.container-image.push=true
Gradle
./gradlew build -Dquarkus.container-image.push=true
If no registry is set (using quarkus.container-image.registry) then docker.io will be used as the default.

Selecting among multiple extensions

It does not make sense to use multiple extension as part of the same build. When multiple container image extensions are present, an error will be raised to inform the user. The user can either remove the unneeded extensions or select one using application.properties.

For example, if both container-image-docker and container-image-podman are present and the user needs to use container-image-docker:

quarkus.container-image.builder=docker

Integrating with systemd-notify

If you are building a container image in order to deploy your Quarkus application as a Linux service with Podman and Systemd, you might want to consider including the Quarkus Systemd Notify Extension as part of your application, with:

CLI
quarkus extension add io.quarkiverse.systemd.notify:quarkus-systemd-notify
Maven
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='io.quarkiverse.systemd.notify:quarkus-systemd-notify'
Gradle
./gradlew addExtension --extensions='io.quarkiverse.systemd.notify:quarkus-systemd-notify'

Using CI Environments

Various CI environments provide a ready to use container-image registry which can be combined with the container-image Quarkus extensions in order to effortlessly create and push a Quarkus application to said registry.

For example, GitLab provides such a registry and in the provided CI environment, makes available the CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE environment variable (see GitLab’s documentation) for more information), which can be used in Quarkus like so:

quarkus.container-image.image=${CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE}
See this for more information on how to combine properties with environment variables.

list of string

quarkus.jib.jvm-entrypoint

If this is set, then it will be used as the entry point of the container image. There are a few things to be aware of when creating an entry point

  • Entrypoint "INHERIT" means to inherit entrypoint from base image, jvmArguments field is used for arguments

  • A valid entrypoint is jar package specific (see quarkus.package.jar.type)

  • A valid entrypoint depends on the location of both the launching scripts and the application jar file. To that end it’s helpful to remember that when fast-jar packaging is used (the default), all necessary application jars are added to the /work directory and that the same directory is also used as the working directory. When legacy-jar or uber-jar are used, the application jars are unpacked under the /app directory and that directory is used as the working directory.

  • Even if the jvmArguments field is set, it is ignored completely unless entrypoint is "INHERIT" When this is not set, a proper default entrypoint will be constructed. As a final note, a very useful tool for inspecting container image layers that can greatly aid when debugging problems with endpoints is dive

quarkus.jib.always-cache-base-image

Controls the optimization which skips downloading base image layers that exist in a target registry. If the user does not set this property, then read as false. If true, base image layers are always pulled and cached. If false, base image layers will not be pulled/cached if they already exist on the target registry.

Show more

boolean

false

quarkus.jib.platforms

List of target platforms. Each platform is defined using the pattern:

<os>|<arch>[/variant]|<os>/<arch>[/variant]

for example:

linux/amd64,linux/arm64/v8

If not specified, OS default is linux and architecture default is amd64. If more than one platform is configured, it is important to note that the base image has to be a Docker manifest or an OCI image index containing a version of each chosen platform. The feature does not work with native images, as cross-compilation is not supported. This configuration is based on an incubating feature of Jib. See Jib FAQ for more information.

Show more

boolean

true

quarkus.jib.use-current-timestamp-file-modification

Whether to set the modification time (last modified time) of the files put by Jib in the image to the actual build time. Otherwise, the modification time will be set to the Unix epoch (00:00:00, January 1st, 1970 in UTC). If the modification time is constant (flag is set to false so Unix epoch is used) across two consecutive builds, the docker layer sha256 digest will be different only if the actual files added by Jib to the docker layer were changed. More exactly, having 2 consecutive builds will generate different docker layers only if the actual content of the files within the docker layer was changed. If the current timestamp is used the sha256 digest of the docker layer will always be different even if the content of the files didn’t change.

About the Duration format

To write duration values, use the standard java.time.Duration format. See the Duration#parse() Java API documentation for more information.

You can also use a simplified format, starting with a number:

  • If the value is only a number, it represents time in seconds.

  • If the value is a number followed by ms, it represents time in milliseconds.

In other cases, the simplified format is translated to the java.time.Duration format for parsing:

  • If the value is a number followed by h, m, or s, it is prefixed with PT.

  • If the value is a number followed by d, it is prefixed with P.
