A simple daemon that helps you monitor docker containers by maintaining PID files for them.
Run ./install.sh as root.
docker run -it --rm --name my_container ubuntu bash -c "while true; do sleep 10; done"
cat << EOF > /etc/monit.d/my_container
check process my_container with path /var/run/docker-pidwatch/my_container.pid
if 5 restarts with 5 cycles then timeout
EOF
monit reload
