how to edit netdata config (netdata running as container)

General
1

Hello everyone

I’m running netdata as a docker container.

I need to make some changes to the netdata config file. Is there a simple way to edit the netdata.conf when i am running netdata as a container? Also could i make these changes permanent so when i stop / restart the container i don’t lose the new configuration?

Thanks

you should be able to get into the running container using something like this:

and then make the config change in there.

to have it permanent i think would be a case of when starting netdata via docker you mount the actuall netdata.conf you want from somewhere on your local system maybe: Install Netdata with Docker | Learn Netdata
