Scope

Overview

Weave Scope automatically generates a map of your containers, enabling you to intuitively understand, monitor, and control your applications.

Please note that the code, and especially the building and running story, is in a prerelease state. Please take a look, but don't be surprised if you hit bugs or missing pieces.

Getting started

sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/scope \
  https://github.com/weaveworks/scope/releases/download/latest_release/scope
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/scope
sudo scope launch

This script will download and run a recent Scope image from the Docker Hub. Now, open your web browser to http://localhost:4040. (If you're using boot2docker, replace localhost with the output of boot2docker ip.)

Build

The build is in four stages. make frontend builds a UI build image with all NPM dependencies. make static compiles the UI into static.go which is part of the repository for convenience. make backend builds the backend Go app which then includes the static files. The final make pushes the app into a Docker image called weaveworks/scope.
