Docker Reaper/Nigromancer

A very simplistic Docker container that monitors a set of containers and restarts them if they become unhealthy.

Currently it can monitor containers based on their name only.

Information

• Docker Hub (outlyernet/reaper-nigromancer)
• GitHub (outlyer-net/docker-reaper-nigromancer)

Usage

Let's say we want to monitor containers some-app and some-server. Create the container with:

$ docker run \
         --name nigromancer \
         -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
         -e RESURRECT_NAMES="some-app some-server" \
         --restart always \
         outlyernet/reaper-nigromancer

Architecture support

Currently the image found on Docker Hub supports the AMD64, i386, ARM v7 and ARM v8 (i.e. 64 bit ARM).
