Dokku Event Logs
New
Introduced in 0.3.21
Docker provides an events command to show system's real time events. Likewise, Dokku can record events as syslog entries and also provides a plugin to display the last ones.
events [-t] # Show the last events (-t follows)
events:list # List logged events
events:on # Enable events logger
events:off # Disable events logger
Usage
Enable the plugin:
Dokku will then write log entries to /var/log/syslog as well as a Dokku-specific logs sub-directory /var/log/dokku/events.log, which can be easily displayed with the command dokku events:
