This guide is for advanced deployments that manage the container image directly. Most installations should use the setup script instead — see the Installation Guide.

Image Details

  • Image Name: moveworks/agent
  • Version: See ECR gallery for the latest version tag
  • Maintainer: Moveworks
  • ECR Repository URL: public.ecr.aws/moveworks/agent:<version>

Features

  • Default Workdir: The default working directory is set to /home/moveworks/agent.
  • Configuration Management: Place your configuration YAML file, named agent_config.yml in /home/moveworks/agent/conf.
  • Certificate Handling: Store required certificates in /home/moveworks/agent/certs. The agent creates an agent_key.pem certificate to encrypt agent_config.yml; write permissions are needed if this directory is being mounted.
  • Logging: All log files are created in /var/log/moveworks and are also streamed to standard output.
  • Directory Permissions: When mounting the above directories, ensure all files have read and write permissions for user_id 17540 and group_id 17540.

Requirements

  • Docker Version: Ensure you have Docker version 20.10.0 or higher.
  • Host OS: Compatible with Linux x86_64 only.
