# attach
Usage: docker attach [OPTIONS] CONTAINER
Attach to a running container
--help=false Print usage
--no-stdin=false Do not attach STDIN
--sig-proxy=true Proxy all received signals to the process
The `docker attach` command allows you to attach to a running container using
the container's ID or name, either to view its ongoing output or to control it
interactively. You can attach to the same contained process multiple times
simultaneously, screen sharing style, or quickly view the progress of your
detached process.
You can detach from the container and leave it running with `CTRL-p CTRL-q`
(for a quiet exit) or with `CTRL-c` if `--sig-proxy` is false.
If `--sig-proxy` is true (the default),`CTRL-c` sends a `SIGINT` to the
container.
> **Note:**
> A process running as PID 1 inside a container is treated specially by
> Linux: it ignores any signal with the default action. So, the process
> will not terminate on `SIGINT` or `SIGTERM` unless it is coded to do
> so.
It is forbidden to redirect the standard input of a `docker attach` command
while attaching to a tty-enabled container (i.e.: launched with `-t`).
#### Examples
$ docker run -d --name topdemo ubuntu /usr/bin/top -b
$ docker attach topdemo

$ echo $?
0
$ docker ps -a | grep topdemo

And in this second example, you can see the exit code returned by the `bash`
process is returned by the `docker attach` command to its caller too:
$ docker run --name test -d -it debian

$ docker attach test
$$ exit 13
exit
$ echo $?
13
$ docker ps -a | grep test
