What about Dockerbeat and Swarm? #67

Open marminthibaut opened 8 years ago

See #59 @gpolaert comment:

I'm wondering if there is a place for swarm and dockerbeat. Swarm can provide some information about nodes, ip, cpu, and so on, plus containers
2 thoughts:

Can we handles beats via swarm/dockerbeat? Is it interesting (not sure)?
Do we have to provide a json swarm event if the socket is a instance of swarm node?

I see two way to manage docker swarm stats:

create a new dockerswarmbeat project :smile:
for each tick, check if monitored daemon is a swarm daemon, and apply some specific logic to swarm API (see https://docs.docker.com/swarm/api/swarm-api/)

They are related enough that I would expect to see swarm support in the dockerbeat monitor.

I realize the backend is different data structs, and if that bloats the monitor codes simplicity I can see why a second project would be attractive.

</my 2 cents>
