Using logspout-papertrail

Route all container output to remote syslog

The simplest way to use logspout-papertrail is to just take all logs and ship to a remote syslog. Just pass a syslog URI (or several comma separated URIs) as the command. Also, we always mount the Docker Unix socket with -v to /tmp/docker.sock:

docker run --name="logspout" \
  --volume=/var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock \
  -e 'SYSLOG_HOSTNAME=node.example.com' \
