Can Vector's Loki sink accept Docker Container name as endpoint, instead of HTTP url?

[phoenisx]

Is it possible to set sink type: loki to use docker container/service names as endpoints?
Similar to how we use container names in exclude_containers for Docker logs source?

I have never used Vector log collector before, thus if the question I'm asking here seems to obvious please ignore 🙇🏽 .

I'm not sure if I understand the question exactly, but if you are asking if you can use the container name of a Loki container as the endpoint for the Vector loki sink to send data to that really depends on container networking outside of Vector itself. Vector will just try to resolve the domain name in the endpoint using the normal DNS lookup mechanisms.

Thanks!
I'm trying to set up vector for the first time.

Will update if things work out.
