About

• A JavaFX desktop application to monitor and manage Docker images in real-time.

How to Run

• In a terminal run docker_chs up, or alternatively in the docker-chs-development repo root, run chs-dev up.
• In a separate terminal, navigate to the dockermon repo root directory, and run mvn javafx:run.
• Alternatively, on Mac or Linux, type ./run.sh in the terminal (you may need to chmod +x run.sh first)

Information

• Active containers are marked with a ✅, old containers with a 🛑
• Click "Clean" button to remove old containers from the list
• Click "Clear log" button to clear the selected log
• Click "Reload" to reload a selected service. Eventually the reloaded service will be picked up, just wait a while like you would if running docker_chs reload in the terminal.
• Any new logs entries appearing 5 seconds after any earlier log entries will be separated by a space for readability.
• Any green icons ✅ will light up for 3 seconds when the corresponding service has new logs.
• Select log text and CTRL+C to copy log text
• Click "Split" button to split the view vertically. You can CTRL + Left Click another container to view that second container.
• Use the search function to highlight matched logs in the primary container view.

TODO

• Investigate switching to using docker events --filter 'event=create' --filter 'event=destroy' --format '{{.Status}} {{.ID}} {{.Actor.Attributes.name}}' instead of scanning docker ps periodically (see experimental branch)
• For the VPN monitor, use aws configure export-credentials --format env and resulting AWS_CREDENTIAL_EXPIRATION
• When reloading a container, monitor the whatever-service-builder-N to check for failure, since this can cause problems with UI busy spinner if it fails.
• Fix clear log / search bug (clearing then searching shows up older results)
• Maybe add Dockermon refresh button to force a logs flush?

Troubleshooting

• If after running you see no containers in the list, try deleting the org.fxmisc.richtext repo in you hidden ~/.m2 folder (and other related dependencies if that doesn't work)
