About
Attach a shell, read logs and browse the filesystem of a live container without SSH access to the host.
Where Porthole fits
Porthole sits in the devops corner of most stacks, and is aimed at teams who have outgrown doing this part by hand. It runs on Web and Linux, and is free to use.
The source is public, so the parts you depend on can be read, forked and audited rather than taken on trust.
What you get on day one
Browser shell with full TTY, and live log tailing and search, filesystem browser with download, read-only mode for shared access. The setup is deliberately small: the maker's argument is that a tool you have to schedule a migration for is a tool you will not adopt.
Whether that holds for your team depends on what you already run. The listing below and the feedback from other makers are the fastest way to find out.
What it does
- Browser shell with full TTY
- Live log tailing and search
- Filesystem browser with download
- Read-only mode for shared access

Been using this on a 40-table schema all week. The rollback generation alone saved me twice. One request: a dry-run flag that prints the SQL without touching anything.

The plain-language summaries are the killer feature. My non-technical PM can review migrations now, which I did not expect to ever type.

Works well with Postgres. MySQL support felt a bit behind, the enum diffing missed a case for me. Filed an issue and got a response the same day.
