NAME

       podman-inspect - Display a container, image, volume, network, or pod's configuration

SYNOPSIS

       podman inspect [options] name [...]

DESCRIPTION

       This displays the low-level information on containers and images identified by name or ID.
       By default, this will render all results in a JSON array. If the inspect type is all,  the
       order of inspection is: containers, images, volumes, network, pods.
        So,  if  a  container  has  the  same  name  as an image, then the container JSON will be
       returned, and so on.
        If a format is specified, the given template will be executed for each result.

       For  more  inspection  options,  see   also   podman-container-inspect(1),   podman-image-
       inspect(1),    podman-network-inspect(1),    podman-pod-inspect(1),   and   podman-volume-
       inspect(1).

OPTIONS

   --type, -t=type
       Return JSON  for  the  specified  type.   Type  can  be  'container',  'image',  'volume',
       'network', 'pod', or 'all' (default: all) (Only meaningful when invoked as podman inspect)

   --format, -f=format
       Format  the output using the given Go template.  The keys of the returned JSON can be used
       as the values for the --format flag (see examples below).

   --latest, -l
       Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you  use
       methods  other  than  Podman  to  run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container
       could be from either of those methods.

       This option can be used to inspect the latest pod created when used with --type pod. (This
       option  is  not  available  with  the remote Podman client or when invoked as podman image
       inspect.)

   --size, -s
       In addition to normal output, display the total file size if the type is a container.
