问题
From this link I found that Google Cloud Dataflow uses Docker containers for its workers: Image for Google Cloud Dataflow instances
I see it's possible to find out the image name of the docker container.
But, is there a way I can get this docker container (ie from which repository do I go to get it?), modify it, and then indicate my Dataflow job to use this new docker container?
The reason I ask is that we need to install various C++ and Fortran and other library code on our dockers so that the Dataflow jobs can call them, but these installations are very time consuming so we don't want to use the "resource" property option in df.
回答1:
The docker containers used for the Dataflow workers are currently private, and can't be modified or customized.
In fact, they are served from a private docker repository, so I don't think you're able to install them on your machine.
回答2:
you can generate a template from your job (see https://cloud.google.com/dataflow/docs/templates/creating-templates for details), then inspect the template file to find the workerHarnessContainerImage used
I just created one for a job using the Python SDK and the image used in there is dataflow.gcr.io/v1beta3/python:2.0.0
Alternatively, you can run a job, then ssh into one of the instances and use docker ps to see all running docker containers. Use docker inspect [container_id] to see more details about volumes bound to the container etc.
