# Docker Input Plugin

The docker plugin uses the Docker Engine API to gather metrics on running
docker containers.

The docker plugin uses the [Official Docker Client](https://github.com/moby/moby/tree/master/client)
to gather stats from the [Engine API](https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.24/).

### Configuration:

```toml
# Read metrics about docker containers
[[inputs.docker]]
  ## Docker Endpoint
  ##   To use TCP, set endpoint = "tcp://[ip]:[port]"
  ##   To use environment variables (ie, docker-machine), set endpoint = "ENV"
  endpoint = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"

  ## Set to true to collect Swarm metrics(desired_replicas, running_replicas)
  ## Note: configure this in one of the manager nodes in a Swarm cluster.
  ## configuring in multiple Swarm managers results in duplication of metrics.
  gather_services = false

  ## Only collect metrics for these containers. Values will be appended to
  ## container_name_include.
  ## Deprecated (1.4.0), use container_name_include
  container_names = []

  ## Containers to include and exclude. Collect all if empty. Globs accepted.
  container_name_include = []
  container_name_exclude = []

  ## Container states to include and exclude. Globs accepted.
  ## When empty only containers in the "running" state will be captured.
  # container_state_include = []
  # container_state_exclude = []

  ## Timeout for docker list, info, and stats commands
  timeout = "5s"

  ## Whether to report for each container per-device blkio (8:0, 8:1...) and
  ## network (eth0, eth1, ...) stats or not
  perdevice = true

  ## Whether to report for each container total blkio and network stats or not
  total = false

  ## docker labels to include and exclude as tags.  Globs accepted.
  ## Note that an empty array for both will include all labels as tags
  docker_label_include = []
  docker_label_exclude = []

  ## Which environment variables should we use as a tag
  tag_env = ["JAVA_HOME", "HEAP_SIZE"]

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = false
```

#### Environment Configuration

When using the `"ENV"` endpoint, the connection is configured using the
[cli Docker environment variables](https://godoc.org/github.com/moby/moby/client#NewEnvClient).

#### Kubernetes Labels

Kubernetes may add many labels to your containers, if they are not needed you
may prefer to exclude them:
```
  docker_label_exclude = ["annotation.kubernetes*"]
```


### Metrics:

Every effort was made to preserve the names based on the JSON response from the
docker API.
