NAME
docker-inspect - Return low-level information on Docker objects
SYNOPSIS
docker inspect [OPTIONS] NAME|ID [NAME|ID...]
DESCRIPTION
This displays the low-level information on Docker object(s) (e.g. container, image, volume,network, node, service, or task) identified by name or ID. By default, this will render all results in a JSON array. If the container and image have the same name, this will return container JSON for unspecified type. If a format is specified, the given template will be executed for each result.
EXAMPLES
Get information about an image when image name conflicts with the container name, e.g. both image and container are named rhel7: $ docker inspect --type=image rhel7 [ { "Id": "fe01a428b9d9de35d29531e9994157978e8c48fa693e1bf1d221dffbbb67b170", "Parent": "10acc31def5d6f249b548e01e8ffbaccfd61af0240c17315a7ad393d022c5ca2", .... } ]
Getting information on a container
To get information on a container use its ID or instance name: $ docker inspect d2cc496561d6 [{ "Id": "d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47", "Created": "2015-06-08T16:18:02.505155285Z", "Path": "bash", "Args": [], "State": { "Running": false, "Paused": false, "Restarting": false, "OOMKilled": false, "Dead": false, "Pid": 0, "ExitCode": 0, "Error": "", "StartedAt": "2015-06-08T16:18:03.643865954Z", "FinishedAt": "2015-06-08T16:57:06.448552862Z" }, "Image": "ded7cd95e059788f2586a51c275a4f151653779d6a7f4dad77c2bd34601d94e4", "NetworkSettings": { "Bridge": "", "SandboxID": "6b4851d1903e16dd6a567bd526553a86664361f31036eaaa2f8454d6f4611f6f", "HairpinMode": false, "LinkLocalIPv6Address": "", "LinkLocalIPv6PrefixLen": 0, "Ports": {}, "SandboxKey": "/var/run/docker/netns/6b4851d1903e", "SecondaryIPAddresses": null, "SecondaryIPv6Addresses": null, "EndpointID": "7587b82f0dada3656fda26588aee72630c6fab1536d36e394b2bfbcf898c971d", "Gateway": "172.17.0.1", "GlobalIPv6Address": "", "GlobalIPv6PrefixLen": 0, "IPAddress": "172.17.0.2", "IPPrefixLen": 16, "IPv6Gateway": "", "MacAddress": "02:42:ac:12:00:02", "Networks": { "bridge": { "NetworkID": "7ea29fc1412292a2d7bba362f9253545fecdfa8ce9a6e37dd10ba8bee7129812", "EndpointID": "7587b82f0dada3656fda26588aee72630c6fab1536d36e394b2bfbcf898c971d", "Gateway": "172.17.0.1", "IPAddress": "172.17.0.2", "IPPrefixLen": 16, "IPv6Gateway": "", "GlobalIPv6Address": "", "GlobalIPv6PrefixLen": 0, "MacAddress": "02:42:ac:12:00:02" } } }, "ResolvConfPath": "/var/lib/docker/containers/d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47/resolv.conf", "HostnamePath": "/var/lib/docker/containers/d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47/hostname", "HostsPath": "/var/lib/docker/containers/d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47/hosts", "LogPath": "/var/lib/docker/containers/d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47/d2cc496561d6d520cbc0236b4ba88c362c446a7619992123f11c809cded25b47-json.log", "Name": "/adoring_wozniak", "RestartCount": 0, "Driver": "overlay2", "MountLabel": "", "ProcessLabel": "", "Mounts": [ { "Source": "/data", "Destination": "/data", "Mode": "ro,Z", "RW": false "Propagation": "" } ], "AppArmorProfile": "", "ExecIDs": null, "HostConfig": { "Binds": null, "ContainerIDFile": "", "Memory": 0, "MemorySwap": 0, "CpuShares": 0, "CpuPeriod": 0, "CpusetCpus": "", "CpusetMems": "", "CpuQuota": 0, "BlkioWeight": 0, "OomKillDisable": false, "Privileged": false, "PortBindings": {}, "Links": null, "PublishAllPorts": false, "Dns": null, "DnsSearch": null, "DnsOptions": null, "ExtraHosts": null, "VolumesFrom": null, "Devices": [], "NetworkMode": "bridge", "IpcMode": "", "PidMode": "", "UTSMode": "", "CapAdd": null, "CapDrop": null, "RestartPolicy": { "Name": "no", "MaximumRetryCount": 0 }, "SecurityOpt": null, "ReadonlyRootfs": false, "Ulimits": null, "LogConfig": { "Type": "json-file", "Config": {} }, "CgroupParent": "" }, "GraphDriver": { "Data": { "LowerDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/44b1d1f04db6b1b73a86f9a62678673bf5d16d9a6b62c13e859aa34a99cce5ea/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/ef637181eb13e30e84b7382183364ed7fd7ff7be22d8bb87049e36b75fb89a86/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/64fb0f850b1289cd09cbc3b077cab2c0f59a4f540c67f997b094fc3652b9b0d6/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/68c4d1411addc2b2bd07e900ca3a059c9c5f9fa2607efd87d8d715a0080ed242/diff", "MergedDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/merged", "UpperDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/diff", "WorkDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/work" }, "Name": "overlay2" }, "Config": { "Hostname": "d2cc496561d6", "Domainname": "", "User": "", "AttachStdin": true, "AttachStdout": true, "AttachStderr": true, "ExposedPorts": null, "Tty": true, "OpenStdin": true, "StdinOnce": true, "Env": null, "Cmd": [ "bash" ], "Image": "fedora", "Volumes": null, "VolumeDriver": "", "WorkingDir": "", "Entrypoint": null, "NetworkDisabled": false, "MacAddress": "", "OnBuild": null, "Labels": {}, "Memory": 0, "MemorySwap": 0, "CpuShares": 0, "Cpuset": "", "StopSignal": "SIGTERM" } } ]
Getting the IP address of a container instance
To get the IP address of a container use: $ docker inspect --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' d2cc496561d6 172.17.0.2
Listing all port bindings
One can loop over arrays and maps in the results to produce simple text output: $ docker inspect --format='{{range $p, $conf := .NetworkSettings.Ports}} \ {{$p}} -> {{(index $conf 0).HostPort}} {{end}}' d2cc496561d6 80/tcp -> 80 You can get more information about how to write a Go template from: https://pkg.go.dev/text/template.
Getting size information on a container
$ docker inspect -s d2cc496561d6 [ { "SizeRw": 0, "SizeRootFs": 972, } ]
Getting information on an image
Use an image's ID or name (e.g., repository/name[:tag]) to get information about the image: $ docker inspect ded7cd95e059 [{ "Id": "ded7cd95e059788f2586a51c275a4f151653779d6a7f4dad77c2bd34601d94e4", "Parent": "48ecf305d2cf7046c1f5f8fcbcd4994403173441d4a7f125b1bb0ceead9de731", "Comment": "", "Created": "2015-05-27T16:58:22.937503085Z", "Container": "76cf7f67d83a7a047454b33007d03e32a8f474ad332c3a03c94537edd22b312b", "ContainerConfig": { "Hostname": "76cf7f67d83a", "Domainname": "", "User": "", "AttachStdin": false, "AttachStdout": false, "AttachStderr": false, "ExposedPorts": null, "Tty": false, "OpenStdin": false, "StdinOnce": false, "Env": null, "Cmd": [ "/bin/sh", "-c", "#(nop) ADD file:4be46382bcf2b095fcb9fe8334206b584eff60bb3fad8178cbd97697fcb2ea83 in /" ], "Image": "48ecf305d2cf7046c1f5f8fcbcd4994403173441d4a7f125b1bb0ceead9de731", "Volumes": null, "VolumeDriver": "", "WorkingDir": "", "Entrypoint": null, "NetworkDisabled": false, "MacAddress": "", "OnBuild": null, "Labels": {} }, "DockerVersion": "1.6.0", "Author": "Lokesh Mandvekar \u003clsm5@fedoraproject.org\u003e", "Config": { "Hostname": "76cf7f67d83a", "Domainname": "", "User": "", "AttachStdin": false, "AttachStdout": false, "AttachStderr": false, "ExposedPorts": null, "Tty": false, "OpenStdin": false, "StdinOnce": false, "Env": null, "Cmd": null, "Image": "48ecf305d2cf7046c1f5f8fcbcd4994403173441d4a7f125b1bb0ceead9de731", "Volumes": null, "VolumeDriver": "", "WorkingDir": "", "Entrypoint": null, "NetworkDisabled": false, "MacAddress": "", "OnBuild": null, "Labels": {} }, "Architecture": "amd64", "Os": "linux", "Size": 186507296, "VirtualSize": 186507296, "GraphDriver": { "Data": { "LowerDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/44b1d1f04db6b1b73a86f9a62678673bf5d16d9a6b62c13e859aa34a99cce5ea/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/ef637181eb13e30e84b7382183364ed7fd7ff7be22d8bb87049e36b75fb89a86/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/64fb0f850b1289cd09cbc3b077cab2c0f59a4f540c67f997b094fc3652b9b0d6/diff:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/68c4d1411addc2b2bd07e900ca3a059c9c5f9fa2607efd87d8d715a0080ed242/diff", "MergedDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/merged", "UpperDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/diff", "WorkDir": "/var/lib/docker/overlay2/c7846fe68c6f18247ab9b8672114dde9f506bc164081a895c465716eeb10f2bc/work" }, "Name": "overlay2" } }]
