About Dozzle

Dozzle streams container logs to your browser in real time. It is a small single binary with no database, shipped as a Docker image that you point at the Docker socket, and it does not store log files, so it is meant for live viewing rather than long-term search.

You can fuzzy-search container names, search logs with regular expressions or SQL queries, view several logs in split screen and watch CPU and memory use. It supports Swarm, Kubernetes, multiple hosts through agent mode, and multi-user login including forward proxy authorization.

Strengths

  • Small image with no database to maintain
  • Regex and SQL search over live logs
  • Split screen and live CPU and memory stats
  • Agent mode for several Docker hosts

Limitations

  • Does not store logs or support offline searching of history
  • Needs access to the Docker socket

Alternatives to Dozzle

Compare all

Software that can replace Dozzle for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • Kubetail

    A real-time logging dashboard for viewing Kubernetes container logs in a browser or terminal.

    Kubetail follows container logs in a browser or terminal but only works with Kubernetes, so Docker and Swarm hosts are not covered.

  • lazydocker

    A terminal dashboard for Docker and Compose, so you stop typing ps, logs and restart over and over.

    lazydocker shows container logs and statistics in a terminal dashboard instead of a web app, and can also restart, stop, prune and shell into containers over SSH.

  • Portainer

    Web interface for deploying and managing Docker and Kubernetes workloads.

    Portainer is a fuller web console for Docker, Swarm and Kubernetes that also deploys stacks, but role-based access control and some fleet features need the paid Business Edition.

  • dry

    Terminal dashboard for Docker containers, images and Swarm services.

    dry is a terminal dashboard for Docker containers, images and Swarm services with stats and logs, but upstream activity is sparse and it has no Kubernetes support.

Dozzle as an alternative

Listings that name Dozzle as an alternative.

  • cAdvisor

    A daemon that collects and analyzes resource usage and performance data for running containers.

    Dozzle shows live container CPU and memory stats alongside container logs in a web app, but stores no history and needs Docker socket access.

  • Stern

    A command-line tool that tails logs from many Kubernetes pods and containers at once.

    Dozzle is a self-hosted web app for live Docker, Swarm and Kubernetes logs with regex and SQL search, but does not store log history.
