Docker containers without the commands

See which containers are up, read a log and restart one without remembering a single docker command.

Termiyo lists a server’s Docker containers with their image, ports and state, and lets you follow a log, open a shell inside one, and restart, stop or start it. Each is the plain docker command, run on the server over your SSH connection. Use it to check or restart a container without remembering docker commands. On a server marked production, Termiyo asks before it runs.

The server’s page lists its containers with their image, ports and state. Each row has the things you reach for: its log, a shell inside it, Restart and Stop. Every one is the plain docker command, run on the server through your connection.

Recorded in Termiyo against a test server on the recording machine. Its containers are a stand-in written for the recording that answers as docker does; no real container runs.

Steps

  1. Open the server’s containers

    Open the server’s page and choose “Containers” under “More”. The list shows each container’s name, image, ports and status, with how many are running.

  2. Follow a log

    Press “Logs” on a row. A new terminal tab on the same server follows the container’s log; close the tab when you are done.

  3. Open a shell inside it

    Press “Shell” on a running container to get a shell inside it, in another tab.

  4. Restart it

    Press “Restart” (or “Stop”, or “Start” on a stopped one). On a server marked production, Termiyo asks before it runs.

Transcript

See which containers are up, read a log and restart one without remembering a single docker command.

Every container on the server, with its image, ports and state, in one list.

Press Logs to follow a container’s log, live, in a terminal tab of its own.

Press Shell for a shell inside it. There are no IDs to copy.

Restart a container that is stuck, and see its new state. On a production server, Termiyo asks first.
