Docker Log Input Plugin

The docker log plugin uses the Docker Engine API to get logs on running docker containers.

The docker plugin uses the Official Docker Client to gather logs from the Engine API.

Note: This plugin works only for containers with the local or json-file or journald logging driver.

Configuration

[[inputs.docker_log]]
  ## Docker Endpoint
  ##   To use TCP, set endpoint = "tcp://[ip]:[port]"
  ##   To use environment variables (ie, docker-machine), set endpoint = "ENV"
  # endpoint = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"

  ## When true, container logs are read from the beginning; otherwise
  ## reading begins at the end of the log.
  # from_beginning = false

  ## Timeout for Docker API calls.
  # timeout = "5s"

  ## Containers to include and exclude. Globs accepted.
  ## Note that an empty array for both will include all containers
  # container_name_include = []
  # container_name_exclude = []

  ## Container states to include and exclude. Globs accepted.
  ## When empty only containers in the "running" state will be captured.
  # container_state_include = []
  # container_state_exclude = []

  ## docker labels to include and exclude as tags.  Globs accepted.
  ## Note that an empty array for both will include all labels as tags
  # docker_label_include = []
  # docker_label_exclude = []

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = false

Environment Configuration

When using the "ENV" endpoint, the connection is configured using the CLI Docker environment variables
