Events

Stream, filter, persist, and export Docker daemon events for auditing and troubleshooting.

Use this page to watch docker events in a searchable, filterable, exportable UI.

Opening the events stream

Open the Events page to start streaming from the current time. Pause the stream when you want to inspect what is already on screen without losing the backlog you have collected.

Filter events

Filter events by the dimensions below when you want to narrow a noisy stream.

  • Resource type: container, image, network, volume, daemon
  • Action: create, start, stop, die, destroy, pull, push, connect, disconnect, and more
  • Time range: rolling window or custom absolute range
  • Free text: matches any field

Persist history

Dockerman writes events to a local JSONL file in its app data directory so the history survives restarts. Use the retention setting in the Data management area when you want to change how long Dockerman keeps it.

Search and query

Search by container name, image, or label, then combine search with filters when you want to focus on a specific chain of events.

Export

Export the current stream when you need to move the data somewhere else.

  • JSON: raw event objects for pipelines or archival
  • CSV: flattened columns for spreadsheets
