Managing Application Logs

• Take me to Video Tutorial

In this section, we will take a look at managing application logs

Let us start with logging in docker

Logs - Kubernetes

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: event-simulator-pod
spec:
  containers:
  - name: event-simulator
    image: kodekloud/event-simulator

• To view the logs

  $ kubectl logs -f event-simulator-pod
  

• If there are multiple containers in a pod then you must specify the name of the container explicitly in the command.

  $ kubectl logs -f <pod-name> <container-name>
  $ kubectl logs -f even-simulator-pod event-simulator
