Add container health to list containers API response for ease of monitoring #50253
Description
Description
It'd be great if the list containers endpoint included the container's health status. Currently, monitoring containers requires multiple API calls.
- Call
/containers/jsonto get running containers - Separate calls to
{id}/statsfor each container to get resource usage - Separate calls to
{id}/jsonfor each container to get the health status
Including it in stats would also be an improvement, but I think including it in the container lists response makes the most sense. That way you could monitor the health of all containers on a host using a single endpoint:
