Overview

Panther supports ingesting Docker event logs by streaming them to an HTTP Source after they are forwarded with Fluent Bit.

How to onboard Docker Events to Panther

Step 1: Create a new Docker Events log source in Panther

  1. In the left-side navigation bar of your Panther Console, click Configure > Log Sources.

  2. Click Create New.

  3. Search for "Docker Events," then click its tile.

    • In the slide-out panel, the Transport Mechanism dropdown in the upper-right corner will be pre-populated with the HTTP option.

  4. Click Start Setup.

  5. Follow Panther's , beginning at Step 5.

    • When setting the Auth method for the source, we recommend using .

    • Payloads sent to this source are subject to the .

    • Do not proceed to the next step until the creation of your HTTP endpoint has completed.

After creating the HTTP source, the Panther Console will display your HTTP Source URL. Store this value in a secure location, as you will need it in the next steps.

Step 2: Configure Fluent Bit

  1. Follow the Getting Started with Fluent Bit instructions to install Fluent Bit as a service.

  2. Create a Fluent Bit configuration file.

    • See sample configuration files for Linux and macOS below under Example configuration files.

  3. Start Fluent Bit, passing the path to your new configuration file.

    • You must include the path to a parser.conf file that contains the docker parser. This is included by fluent-bit by default. On Linux, it can be found at /etc/fluent-bit/parsers.conf.

      • Example: fluent-bit -c fluentbit.conf -R /etc/fluent-bit/parsers.conf

Example configuration files

Configure the following in your Fluent Bit configuration file:

  • [INPUT] variables:

    • Name: Set this to docker_events.

    • Parser: Set this to docker.

  • [OUTPUT] variables:

    • Host: Enter your Panther URL.

      • Example: logs.instance-name.runpanther.net

    • URI: Enter the end of the HTTP Source ingest URL (generated in Step 1 of this process), starting with /http/.

      • Example: /http/cb015ee4-543c-4489-9f4b-testaa16d7a

    • Header: Enter the header name you created and the secret you generated while configuring your HTTP source in the Panther Console in Step 1.

    • Name: Set to http.

    • TLS: Set to ON.

    • Port: Set to 443.

[SERVICE]
  flush      1

[INPUT]
  name       docker_events
  parser     docker

[OUTPUT]
  name       http
  match      *
  host       logs.instance.runpanther.net
  port       443
  URI        /http/70c55034-13f1-4e08-a018-test5f2bb0a8
  Header     x-panther-secret {YOUR_SECRET_HERE}
  Format     json_lines
  TLS        on
  TLS.Verify on

Configure the following in your Fluent Bit configuration file:

  • [INPUT] variables:

    • Name: Set this to docker_events.

      • On macOS, docker_events is not supported by fluent-bit. Instead you can use the Exec input plugin. See the sample configuration for macOS below.

    • Parser: Set this to docker.

  • [OUTPUT] variables:

    • Host: Enter your Panther URL.

      • Example: logs.instance-name.runpanther.net

    • URI: Enter the end of the HTTP Source URL (generated in Step 1 of this process), starting with /http/.

      • Example: /http/cb015ee4-543c-4489-9f4b-testaa16d7a

    • Header: Enter the header name you created and the secret you generated while configuring your HTTP source in the Panther Console in Step 1.

    • Name: Set to http.

    • TLS: Set to ON.

    • Port: Set to 443.

[SERVICE]
  flush      1

[INPUT]
  name         exec
  parser       docker
  Command      docker events --since 10s --until 0s --format '{{json .}}'
  Interval_Sec 10

[OUTPUT]
  name       http
  match      *
  host       logs.instance.runpanther.net
  port       443
  URI        /http/70c55034-13f1-4e08-a018-2c005f2bb0a8
  Header     x-panther-secret {YOUR_SECRET_HERE}
  Format     json_lines
  TLS        on
  TLS.Verify on
