What is dtop?

dtop is a command-line companion to Dozzle that provides a real-time terminal view of the Docker containers running on your system. Think of it as a richer docker ps you can leave open in a tmux pane — and when you need the full log history, search, or charts, dtop lets you jump straight into Dozzle.

It connects to Docker hosts via ssh, tcp, or a local unix socket, making it well suited for the same multi-host setups Dozzle supports.

Installation

Install with Homebrew:

brew install dtop

Or run it via Docker without installing anything:

docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -it ghcr.io/amir20/dtop:latest

Full installation instructions can be found at https://github.com/amir20/dtop.

Project Status

dtop is a new project and not feature rich as Dozzle. However, I am actively working on adding more features. I use it personally to monitor all my containers across multiple hosts on the command line. If you have suggestions then please open issues at https://github.com/amir20/dtop/issues.
