Following is the Dockerfile of my jmeter container

FROM java:8-jdk

ARG JMETER_VERSION="3.3"
ENV JMETER_HOME /opt/apache-jmeter-${JMETER_VERSION}
ENV JMETER_BIN  ${JMETER_HOME}/bin
ENV JMETER_DOWNLOAD_URL  https://archive.apache.org/dist/jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-${JMETER_VERSION}.tgz

# download and extract JMeter
RUN mkdir /tmp/dependencies
RUN curl -L --silent ${JMETER_DOWNLOAD_URL} > /tmp/dependencies/apache-jmeter-${JMETER_VERSION}.tgz

RUN tar -xzf /tmp/dependencies/apache-jmeter-${JMETER_VERSION}.tgz -C /opt && \
    rm -rf /tmp/dependencies

# Set global PATH such that "jmeter" command is found
ENV PATH $PATH:$JMETER_BIN

COPY plugins/lib/*.jar ${JMETER_HOME}/lib/
COPY plugins/lib/ext/*.jar ${JMETER_HOME}/lib/ext/
COPY jmeter.sh ${JMETER_HOME}/bin/

COPY entrypoint.sh /

WORKDIR ${JMETER_HOME}

ENTRYPOINT ["/entrypoint.sh"]

I trigger the build via Jenkins where I have parameterized the scenarios, environment, threads etc.

My script has influxdb endpoints where the time series data will be sent which will be later showed in grafana.

It worked well when I had set up following docker container services locally ,individually and creating a network of it.

• Jenkins
• Jmeter
• InfluxDB
• Grafana

Now, in real-world I have to deal with only one Docker container Jmeter. At this point in time, I am not sure how can I do volume mapping with Jmeter container and InfluxDB which is not the container but aws instance. How will I send the data to it?

Help would be gladly appreciated. Thank you
