Make fig restart the container if memory goes beyond limit

[phuongnd08]

Instead of limit the memory of container, I'd like to restart the container if its memory usage goes beyond a limit. Could that be done? This is because some (web) applications have memory leak and need to be restarted when the leak grow too much. But simply limit the memory will raise a lot of errors inside the app

I think this is better done with tools like God or Bluepill inside the container. Fig is more about orchestration than about process management.

As far as I know, this is not something that will be implemented by fig. You should look at something like cAdvisor, although I am not sure they have implemented this yet.

@d11wtq Fair enough. Look like keeping God in the foreground and have God monitor my webapp process should do the work. Thanks man.

@stigkj So far cAdvisor is just read only api for resource. I think it would be overkill for simple process memory management.
