Docker logging causing undue wear of SD Card #87

Closed TheOriginalMrWolf closed 5 years ago

TheOriginalMrWolf commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Just worked out that Docker is doing a lot of logging to your SD card by default as well. This also causes undue wear of SD cards in Raspberrys.

Good idea to change logging.

Either set --log-driver to none (so no logging), or --if syslog is written to a tempfs -- set it to use syslog.

Cmd line either 

docker run -d --restart always --name restreamer --log-driver none ..... etc etc

or 

docker run -d --restart always --name restreamer --log-driver syslog  .... etc etc

Hi

Thanks for the hint. Is this, what Docker is logging, specific to Restreamer? In case you want to silence the log output of Restreamer you can set the environment variable RS_LOGLEVEL to 0.

TheOriginalMrWolf commented 5 years ago

No -- it's general docker logging. Set log-driver to syslog to see in syslog. You can also check out "docker logs restreamer"

I will incorporate this as well in the documentation.
