Microservice Logs

Debugging distributed applications can be tricky. Fortunately, potctl makes it easy to find out what each of our microservices are doing.

With the logs command, we can use potctl to inspect the output of each microservice's container:

potctl logs microservice NAME

If we have issues getting logs, its a good idea to check the status of the respective microservice:

potctl get microservices

NAMESPACE
default

MICROSERVICE  STATUS    AGENT     ROUTES    VOLUMES           PORTS
msvc-1        RUNNING   agent-1   route-1   /tmp/msvc:/tmp
msvc-2        DELETING  agent-2             /tmp/iofog:/data  5000:80
