Description
What problem will this feature address?
When deploying as an Application in Dokploy, it is not possible to define a Docker log driver like gelf and its options (e.g. gelf-address, tag) from the UI. This prevents setups that send logs directly to ELK (Elasticsearch, Kibana & Logstash) via the Docker logging driver, for example:
logging:
driver: gelf
options:
gelf-address: "udp://elk:12201"
tag: ldap
Where I have an ldap which I want to send the logs to the elk.
Describe the solution you'd like
In the Application “Advanced” settings, add:
- A field to choose the Docker
logging.driver(e.g.gelf). - A simple key/value editor for
logging.options(e.g.gelf-address,tag).
Or even better a space to write the logging needed like this:
logging:
driver: gelf
options:
gelf-address: "udp://elk-node:12201"
tag: ldap
This would let an Application replicate the same logging configuration that currently only works via Docker Compose/Stack.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Using a Docker Compose/Stack project in Dokploy so the
logging:block is respected. - Setting a global
log-driverandlog-optsin the Docker daemon, which forces the same logging config for every container on the host.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Application Advanced settings and the application deployment path, then trace how Compose/Stack logging is represented. Done means an Application can set logging.driver and logging.options and the resulting container uses them, with coverage for the settings.
