# Using Rsyslog Docker Containers

The rsyslog project publishes official Docker images on Docker Hub. They are built from the definitions in `packaging/docker` and ship current rsyslog releases.

Images follow the pattern `rsyslog/rsyslog[-<function>]:<version>` with variants such as `rsyslog/rsyslog` (standard) and `rsyslog/rsyslog-minimal`. To build them locally run:

    make -C packaging/docker/rsyslog all

See Rsyslog Containers for an overview of available images and for notes on development and historical container work.
