Missing exited state

[sy6sy2]

Monocker seems to be able to notify if a container is stopped or removed but I am not able to have this feature working.

My docker compose:

services:
  monocker:
    image: petersem/monocker:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro

Steps to reproduce:

1. docker compose up monocker
2. Wait 1 minute
3. docker compose down any existing stack (let's say homepage)
4. Wait 1 minute, nothing appear in monocker log (I expect to have an exited log line)
5. docker compose up homepage
6. As expected I have the running log line in monocker log

@sy6sy2 what environment variables have you set?

[sy6sy2]

None, because the default values seems to suite my needs (I will add Slack later)

Try these 3

Same problem with my new docker compose file:

services:
  monocker:
    image: petersem/monocker:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
    environment:
      MESSAGE_PLATFORM: 'slack@xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx'
      ONLY_OFFLINE_STATES: 'false'
      EXCLUDE_EXITED: 'false'
      PERIOD: 30
      DISABLE_STARTUP_MSG: 'true'

@sy6sy2 are you getting any messages in slack? Perhaps try another platform or double check slack keys in monocker.

Is working for me with discord.

[sy6sy2]

Yes, I correctly get messages on Slack (the same messages that I get on monocker stdout).
Only problem is that monocker seems to miss "exited" state change.

[petersem]

@sy6sy2 so if you stop a running container, nothing displays?

[sy6sy2]

Yes, this is my issue.
If I "down" a docker compose stack nothing display.
But after the "down" if I "up" the stack then I get the "running" event in both mono docker logs and Slack.

Hi,
@petersem Thanks for useful service.
I fixed missing notifications when container status becomes exited.
Please, merge and update docker image in docker hub.
