Installing Tableau bride on Amazon Linux

Étapes

Step 1 : Create a folder for Docker image and generate Docker configuration file

mkdir Docker

cd Docker 

touch Dockerfile

Step 2: Download the Tableau bridge package using wget

Example : wget https://downloads.tableau.com/tssoftware/TableauBridge-20251.25.0520.1026.x86_64.rpm

Step 3: Add following configuration to Docker file

vi Dockerfile

# Use Amazon Linux 2023 as the base image
FROM public.ecr.aws/amazonlinux/amazonlinux:2023

# Update system packages
RUN yum -y update

# Copy the Bridge RPM package into the container
COPY TableauBridge-20251.25.0520.1026.x86_64.rpm /tmp/

# Install the Bridge RPM and clean up
RUN ACCEPT_EULA=y yum install -y /tmp/TableauBridge-20251.25.0520.1026.x86_64.rpm && rm -f /tmp/TableauBridge-20251.25.0520.1026.x86_64.rpm.rpm

# Set the entry point for the container
ENTRYPOINT ["/opt/tableau/tableau_bridge/bin/tableau-bridge-cli"]

Step 4 : Build the base Image using below command

docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 -t bridge_base .

Note : . indicates location of Docker folder. If you are running this command outside Docker folder, instead of . mention Docker folder location here 

Ex : docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 -t bridge_base /Docker

Check that the base image you created is displayed in the list of images:

docker images | grep bridge
