+Ultra-light docker monitor
+=========================
+
+This light tool permits:
+ - to export docker container memory usage in a JSON file `stats.json`
+ - display curves of the memory usages using the JSON file
+
+The export and the display are two different parts. This allow to run the display in another machine.
+
+
+
+Setup the stats export
+----------------------
+
+To add it to the cron tab:
+
+	crontab -e
+
+The add new line (to run the check once per hour)
+
+	*/10 * * * * /path.io/docker-stats-histo/save_docker_stats.sh >>/dev/null  2>&1
+
+
+**Note:**
+ - Normaly cron send task outputs (echo) via mail. As the MTA (Mail Transfert Agent), may not be set up,
+the crontab line redirect the outputs into `/dev/null`. Can also be a path to a log file.
+ - No sudo is needed, crontab is called with current user.
+
+
+Display stats
+-------------
+
+To be done...
