lazydocker - The Lazier Way to Manage Everything Docker via a Simple Terminal UI
A simple terminal UI for managing Docker containers, images, volumes, and services. Lazydocker provides a user-friendly interface to interact with your Docker environment without memorizing complex CLI commands, making Docker workflows faster and more intuitive.
Project Introduction
Summary
Lazydocker is a fast and intuitive terminal UI (TUI) for effectively managing your Docker environment. It aggregates information and actions related to containers, services, images, volumes, and networks into a single, easy-to-navigate interface.
Problem Solved
Managing Docker resources (containers, images, volumes, networks) often requires memorizing and repeatedly typing complex command-line interface (CLI) commands. This can be cumbersome, error-prone, and slow down development or operations workflows. Lazydocker solves this by providing an interactive, visual terminal interface.
Core Features
Container Management Overview
View the status, resource usage, and logs of all running and stopped containers in a single pane.
Image Management
Easily inspect images, layers, and tags. Manage images by pulling, building, or removing them through the UI.
Real-time Log Viewing
Navigate and view logs for individual containers in real-time within the terminal UI.
Volume and Network Management
Manage Docker volumes and networks directly from the interface.
Tech Stack
Use Cases
Lazydocker is most beneficial in scenarios where you need quick visibility and interaction with your Docker containers and resources, avoiding frequent context switching away from your terminal.
Scenario 1: Monitoring Running Containers
Details
Quickly see which containers are running, their status, resource usage (CPU/Memory), and port mappings at a glance.
User Value
Saves time compared to running multiple `docker ps` or `docker stats` commands.
Scenario 2: Debugging Container Logs
Details
Jump directly into viewing real-time logs for a specific container to debug application issues.
User Value
More convenient than using `docker logs <container_id>` repeatedly, especially with multiple containers.
Scenario 3: Resource Cleanup
Details
Efficiently clean up stopped containers, unused images, or dangling volumes and networks.
User Value
Simplifies cleanup tasks that might otherwise require complex filtering with the CLI.
