All Beat images are created from the source contained in [https://github.com/elastic/beats-docker](https://github.com/elastic/beats-docker).

The Dockerfile is generated from a template in order to reduce duplication. [https://github.com/elastic/beats-docker/blob/master/templates/Dockerfile.j2](https://github.com/elastic/beats-docker/blob/master/templates/Dockerfile.j2)

FYI There's metadata in the image labels that points to the source repo too. It follows [http://label-schema.org/rc1/](http://label-schema.org/rc1/).

`docker inspect docker.elastic.co/beats/filebeat:6.3.2 | grep org.label`
