glances container???

[jedimstr]

Has anyone gotten the nicolargo/glances container working in unRAID with webserver active?

 

The https://hub.docker.com/r/nicolargo/glances/ listing looked fairly straightforward and I've been passing combinations of ENTRYPOINT and CMD variables along with priviledged access so it can get to the docker.sock, but so far no joy for me.

 

If anyone is wondering what glances is about:  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nicolargo/glances/master/docs/_static/screenshot-wide.png

 

I wanted something alongside my Grafana Dashboard and unRAID's builtin interface (mixed with all my other stuff under muximux) that shows individual Docker Container stats and this looked like it fit the bill but it just won't startup.

Well if you make a template and talk to Squid it will be.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do I install this docker in Unraid?

CA - turn on dockerHub searches.  Search for glances unraid

Add it, then adjust the template as above

I have CA (Community Applications?) installed and working.  I am not sure how to turn on DockerHub searches.

Thank you so much for your help so far!!  I am making progress lol.  So I found the spots to put the following:

Icon

Webui

Network Type

Privileged

 

Where do I put the other 2:

port 1

Path 1

 

Do I set the container volume to /config and host path to whatever I choose?

Note that the webUI line listed a couple posts up is the incorrect way of entering it.  Host port irrelevant since its host mode.  No config mapping required only /var/run/docker.sock

Squid, can I modify this docker to export to influxdb rather than using the glances -w option?

 

Basically, I want to run:

 

glances --quiet --export-influxdb

 

and I need to give it the influxdb info via conf file... Any ideas/guidance?

 

[Drewster727]

ended up rolling my own glances docker container that allows you to pass in the args rather than forcing the web based version:

https://hub.docker.com/r/drewster727/glances-unraid/

 

in case anyone wants to use it!

Hey man, I know this is old, but I was just wondering how you specify which influxdb database you want to use?

[Drewster727]

@zandrsn hey dude -- I believe that's in the glances.config file that you reference.
