How to access Kafka Connector (confluent log connect) in a docker enviroment

Question

I am currently working with kafka based on confluent's cp-demo project. (https://github.com/confluentinc/cp-demo)

I am developing a custom connector which I was able to publish in the connect docker, however it is not working properly and I am having trouble accessing the confluent log to check how it is working.

I know about the existance of confluent log connect command which in my localhost enviroment allows me to access the log. How can I access this very same log in this docker environment?

Can anyone show me the path?

Thank you in advance!

Try running docker exec -it {containerId} confluent log connect — MrKulli

docker exec lets you run commands on running container. you can run above to get logs in interactive mode or you can ssh 'in into container by docker exec -it {containerId} /bin/bash — MrKulli

confluent cli command doesn't exist in the containers. You would just use docker logs <<container-id>>, or similar with docker-compose logs
