Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

• docker_composeRead the compose configurationread-only

  Reads what the project declares: config for the resolved compose file, env for the variables with the file each came from. Both read files rather than a running process — a variable here is what was written down, not what the container now holds. What is actually running is docker_container.

• docker_compose_controlStart or stop the whole stackcan change or delete data

  Brings the stack up or takes it down, and reports the containers standing afterwards as read from the daemon, not as compose described them. A stack that half came up says so instead of passing for a success. Taking volumes down with it destroys their data and is refused without confirm.

• docker_containerList containers and measure usageread-only

  Lists the containers of a project with their state, health and published ports, or measures with stats what one service consumes right now. A project name no container carries is refused with the names that exist, so an empty list means the host itself runs nothing under compose. Moving a container between states is docker_container_control.

• docker_container_controlStart, stop or restart a containercan change or delete data

  Moves one service between states — start, stop, restart — and reports where it stood before and where it stands now, with changed saying whether the call did anything at all. A stop that ran out of time comes back killed with its exit code, never as a clean stop. The whole stack at once is docker_compose_control.

• docker_dbAsk a databasecan change or delete data

  query runs a statement against a database container, status asks the database about itself — version, size, uptime. PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, Redis, MongoDB and SQLite are spoken to through the client the image carries. A database that refuses answers with its exit code, not with a failed call. A statement that destroys data needs # CONFIRMED-DESTRUCTIVE.

• docker_db_adminDump a database or fill it from a dumpcan change or delete data

  backup takes a dump of a database container, restore fills the database from one. The answer names the file, its size and whether it was read back: a call that says done without naming a file of known size says nothing. Restore overwrites what is there and is refused without confirm — take a backup here first.

• docker_execRun a command in a containercan change or delete data

  Runs a command inside a service container and brings back its exit code, with stdout and stderr apart. exit_code null means the command never ran and reason says why; an empty stdout means it ran and said nothing. What destroys data is refused until the command carries # CONFIRMED-DESTRUCTIVE. Reading logs, asking a database and taking dumps have tools of their own.

• docker_healthCheck services, this server, and the hosts it knowsread-only

  services says whether the containers answer their healthchecks, server whether this process is well, profiles which Docker hosts it was given. The word healthy means something different in each branch, so every answer explains its own verdict. A service that declares no healthcheck is said to have none, not counted as sick.

• docker_logsRead container logsread-only

  Reads what a container printed, line by line: each line carries the stream that wrote it and its own time. An empty list means the window held nothing, not that the read failed, and lines dropped from the middle are counted rather than quietly lost. Narrow the window with since and until instead of raising the count.

• docker_resourceList host resources and measure disk usageread-only

  images, volumes and networks list what a host holds; disk counts what they take, with unused bytes apart from the total. An empty list means asked and found nothing, which is not the same as never asked. What a running container consumes right now is docker_container with stats.
