cAdvisor has long been a favorite monitoring tool of mine. I’m using Docker Compose for local testing and have begun including a cAdvisor in my docker-compose.yaml files. cadvisor: restart: always image: google/cadvisor:${CADVISOR_VERSION} container_name: cadvisor # command: # - --prometheus_endpoint="/metrics" # Default volumes: - "/:/rootfs:ro" - "/var/run:/var/run:rw" - "/sys:/sys:ro" - "/var/snap/docker/current:/var/lib/docker:ro" #- "/var/lib/docker/:/var/lib/docker:ro" expose: - "8080" ports: - 8080:8080 I’d not realized until recently, that cAdvisor also surfaces a Prometheus metrics endpoint and so, if you do follow this path and you’re also using Prometheus, don’t forget to add cAdvisor to your Prometheus targets.
