A minimal terminal-based UI to manage and inspect Docker containers — written in pure Go using tview and the Docker SDK.
-
View all Docker containers (running, exited, etc.)
-
See:
- Name, Image, State, Status, Ports
- Full container details (
docker inspect) - Last 5 logs of each container
-
Refresh container list with one key
-
Works entirely in the terminal (no mouse required)
- Go 1.18+
- Docker daemon running (locally or remote via
DOCKER_HOST) - Git (for dependency fetching)
Clone the repo and run:
go mod tidy
go run .Or build it:
go build -o docker-tui
./docker-tui| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| ↑ / ↓ | Navigate container list |
Enter |
Show container details and logs |
r |
Refresh container list |
q / Esc |
Quit the app |
docker run -d --name my-nginx -p 8080:80 nginx
go run .You'll see my-nginx in the list, with ports, uptime, logs, and more.
