About lazydocker
lazydocker is a terminal interface for Docker and docker-compose. It shows containers, networks and logs in one screen, so you can manage them without typing long commands.
What it does
The tool lists your containers and lets you view their logs, stats and status from a single window. You can start, stop and remove containers with keyboard shortcuts. It supports docker-compose projects and includes panels for networks as well as containers. The tool is written in Go and built on the gocui library, which keeps it fast and lightweight in a terminal session.
Key features
- Container and network panels in one screen
- Live logs and resource stats
- Start, stop and remove containers quickly
- Works with docker-compose projects
- Keyboard-driven interface
Who it's for
Developers who work with Docker from the terminal and want a quicker way to check on containers. It also suits people who work in a terminal over SSH on a remote machine.
Pricing and good to know
lazydocker is free and open source under the MIT licence. It is available for macOS and Linux. Docker must already be running on the machine the tool manages, and the tool does not replace the Docker command line for every task.
