Docker containers with multiple log sources

Question

Say I have a container that has everything I need to run my web application (such as https://github.com/grigio/docker-stringer for example). How would I go about inspecting the logs for the different services (web server, application server, database server)? With all of the tutorials so far I have only been able to view the logs for the specific command run when starting the container.

Answer 1

One method would be to configure your logs to write to stdout and to use docker logs to retrieve them.

Another option would be to use a bindmount and link to your host file system.
