Oracle JDK Docker Base Images

— Images are built automatically from the latest Oracle Downloads

Docker project maintained by BinaryBabel — Not an official Oracle product release.

Available for Java 7/8, review Docker Hub Tags for all current releases.

These images are rebuilt when new versions of Java are released, through the use of webhooks provided by the Latestver dependency tracking tool, a BinaryBabel OSS Project.

JDK	Current Version	JDK	Current Version
8		7

NOTE: JDK7 updates are no longer being provided publicly by Oracle.

Usage of Oracle Java is subject to acceptance of Oracle’s Binary Code License Agreement (BCLA).

• The environment variable ACCEPT_ORACLE_BCLA must be set. Examples are given below.
• “Creating a Docker image” example explains accepting BCLA as part of a dependent image.
  • BCLA §C describes distributing Oracle Java, “for the sole purpose of running your Programs”
• By using the Java binaries in any manner you are accepting the Oracle BCLA.

Container Usage Examples

The entry-point for each container is the java command, by default.
So additional docker command line options become Java options.

Print Containerized Java Version

docker run --rm -e ACCEPT_ORACLE_BCLA=true binarybabel/jdk:8-alpine -version

Using Compose to run a JAR

docker-compose.yml

version: '2'
services:
  app:
    image: 'binarybabel/jdk:8-alpine'
    environment:
      - ACCEPT_ORACLE_BCLA=true
    volumes:
      - /path/to/some/local/file.jar:/srv/app.jar:ro
    command: [-jar, app.jar]

Creating a Docker image / Redistribution

Dockerfile

#   "(i) ... bundled as part of, and for the
#    sole purpose of running, your Programs"
# ------------------------------------------------------
ENV ACCEPT_ORACLE_BCLA=true
RUN curl http://example.com/some-java-app.tgz | tar xz
CMD ["-jar", "some-java-app/app.jar"]
