NAME
podman-events - Monitor Podman events
SYNOPSIS
podman events [options]
DESCRIPTION
Monitor and print events that occur in Podman. Each event will include a timestamp, a
type, a status, name (if applicable), and image (if applicable). The default logging
mechanism is journald. This can be changed in containers.conf by changing the
events_logger value to file. Only file and journald are accepted. A none logger is also
available but this logging mechanism completely disables events; nothing will be reported
by podman events.
By default, streaming mode is used, printing new events as they occur. Previous events
can be listed via --since and --until.
The container event type will report the follow statuses:
* attach
* checkpoint
* cleanup
* commit
* connect
* create
* disconnect
* exec
* exec_died
* exited
* export
* import
* init
* kill
* mount
* pause
* prune
* remove
* rename
* restart
* restore
* start
* stop
* sync
* unmount
* unpause
The pod event type will report the follow statuses:
* create
* kill
* pause
* remove
* start
* stop
* unpause
The image event type will report the following statuses:
* loadFromArchive,
* mount
* pull
* push
* remove
* save
* tag
* unmount
* untag
The system type will report the following statuses:
* refresh
* renumber
The volume type will report the following statuses:
* create
* prune
* remove
OPTIONS
--filter, -f=filter
Filter events that are displayed. They must be in the format of "filter=value". The
following filters are supported:
* container=name_or_id
* event=event_status (described above)
* image=name_or_id
* label=key=value
* pod=name_or_id
* volume=name_or_id
* type=event_type (described above)
In the case where an ID is used, the ID may be in its full or shortened form.
--format
Format the output to JSON Lines or using the given Go template.

10m, 5h. If no since or until values are provided, only new events will be shown.
