LogWatcher: Simplifying Docker Image Monitoring

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5302ce2d-b788-4d97-8a7d-f8b1693bc6e9

LogWatcher is an open-source software tool created by Atakan G. to simplify application monitoring for Docker images. This project provides an easy-to-use interface for developers to gain insights about their Docker applications, monitor resource usage, and optimize performance.

Features

    Real-time monitoring of Docker images

    Resource usage tracking and optimization

    Error log monitoring in real-time

    Alerting system for critical events

    Benchmarking capabilities

    Configuration management through a user-friendly interface

    Container management from the dashboard

Getting Started

    Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/AtakanG7/logWatcher.git

    Run the starter script: sh logwatcher.sh your-docker-image-name

    Wait for the requirements to be installed. A Streamlit interface will launch automatically.

Architecture

LogWatcher utilizes a microservices architecture, with each service operating independently and communicating through Docker network interfaces over HTTP/HTTPS protocols. The system includes:

    Prometheus: Metric scraper for collecting information from registered network devices

    Grafana: Provides graphical interfaces using Prometheus data

    Alert Manager: Listens for alerts from Prometheus and takes appropriate actions

    Loki & Promtail: Collects log information from target container applications

    Node Exporter & Cadvisor: Gathers information about the local system and Docker containers

Benefits

    Quick and easy testing of ready Docker images

    Comprehensive resource usage monitoring

    Real-time error log visibility

    Simplified configuration management

    Automated setup of monitoring tools

    Scalable architecture for future expansion

Use Cases

    Rapid testing and evaluation of Docker images

    Resource usage optimization

    Continuous monitoring for error detection

    Internal company monitoring solution

Technology Stack

    Streamlit: User interface creation

    Prometheus: Metric collection and querying

    Grafana: Data visualization

    Alert Manager: Alert handling and notification

    Loki & Promtail: Log aggregation and processing

    Node Exporter & Cadvisor: System and container metrics collection

    Docker: Containerization and networking

Future Plans

    Integration with cloud platforms

    Improved compatibility with various tools
