A real-time terminal dashboard for monitoring Docker containers and their resource usage.
Dockdash is a real-time terminal dashboard for monitoring Docker containers and their resource usage. It streams Docker events and stats to provide an up-to-date view of running containers, helping developers quickly assess the health and performance of their containerized applications.
Developers and DevOps engineers who work with Docker and prefer terminal-based tools for monitoring container environments without relying on web interfaces.
Dockdash offers a lightweight, fast, and interactive way to monitor Docker containers directly from the terminal, with real-time updates and a simple keyboard-driven interface that avoids the overhead of GUI tools.
Docker dashboard using Termui
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Continuously updates container status and resource usage via Docker events and stats streams, providing live insights without refresh delays.
Uses arrow keys to browse containers and the 'i' key for inspect mode, offering a fast, keyboard-driven interface for quick exploration.
Runs as a container itself by mounting the Docker socket, making setup trivial with a single docker run command as shown in the README.
Built with Termui for a clean, efficient interface that operates entirely in the terminal, avoiding browser overhead.
The README's todo list admits it lacks actions like stop/start on containers and doesn't support listing images or stopped containers, limiting utility.
Requires mounting the Docker socket, which grants extensive privileges and can be a security risk in untrusted environments.
Marked as W.I.P with incomplete features such as poor multiline info handling and no deb package, indicating potential bugs or instability.
