Features

  • 🔗 Share log messages to colleagues via link
  • 💽 Clear original docker logs to keep your storage size.
  • 📊 Error/Info/Debug Statistics

Roadmap

  • 🗂 Grouping hosts
  • 🏷 Search and filter by tags (log status, time)
  • 🔌Plugins and internal ability to notify about some event (e.g. notify when Error happens)
  • 📊 Improved statistics

Hello world & usage

Docker Compose example with traefik

  onlogs:
    image: devforth/onlogs
    restart: always
    environment:
      - ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
      - ADMIN_PASSWORD=<any password>
      - PORT=8798
    #  - ONLOGS_PATH_PREFIX=/onlogs if want to use with path prefix

    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.onlogs.rule=Host(`<your host>`)"  # if using on subdomain, e.g. https://onlogs.yourdomain.com
    #  - traefik.http.routers.onlogs.rule=PathPrefix(`/onlogs`) # if want to use with a path prefix, e.g. https://yourdomain.com/onlogs
      - "traefik.http.services.onlogs.loadbalancer.server.port=8798"
    volumes:
     - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
     - /var/lib/docker/containers:/var/lib/docker/containers # if you want to delete duplicating logs from docker
     - /etc/hostname:/etc/hostname
     - onlogs-volume:/leveldb

volumes:
  onlogs-volume:

    -v /var/lib/docker/containers:/var/lib/docker/containers \
    -v /etc/hostname:/etc/hostname \
    -v onlogs-volume:/leveldb \ 
    --label traefik.enable=true \
    --label traefik.http.routers.onlogs.rule=Host\(\`<your host>\`\) \
