I want to create a Filebeat container to send every docker log to elastic. My problem is that every tutorial of Filebeat show me a Filebeat input with the path '/var/lib/docker/containers//.log' But this path is only available on Linux system . In Mac or windows docker logs are not stored in a file. Is there a way to root every log to elastic without OS dependency ?

Thanks you for your time

  • Q: What's the "external environment" you wish your container to send log information to? Where do you intend to run your containers? AWS? – paulsm4 Aug 14 '23 at 05:59
  • No I want to send it to a local elastic container . – Acher Klein Aug 14 '23 at 21:04
  • I was trying to understand a bit more about your Docker environment: where you're currently running your containers, where you ultimately want to run them, and whether the container itself is Linux or Windows. I was leading up to "Q: Have you considered Docker volumes?" SUGGESTIONS: 1) Open a support ticket with Elastic: https://www.elastic.co/beats/filebeat 2) Consider volumes: https://stackoverflow.com/a/54375141/421195 – paulsm4 Aug 14 '23 at 21:26
