Docker Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it

Follow these steps:

1. Start the Docker daemon with the required logging driver, as follows:

    $ dockerd --log-driver=none    $ dockerd --log-driver=syslog

You can also add this option in the Docker configuration file (/etc/docker/daemon.json):

    {      "log-driver": "json-file",      "log-opts": {        "labels": "production_status",        "env": "os,customer"      }    }

2. If you want to start a container that is using a different logging driver from the system default, you can use the --log-driver option:

     $ docker container run -it --log-driver syslog alpine ash
