# NAME
|
||
docker-logs - Fetch the logs of a container
|
||
|
||
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
**docker logs**
|
||
[**-f**|**--follow**[=*false*]]
|
||
[**--help**]
|
||
[**--since**[=*SINCE*]]
|
||
[**-t**|**--timestamps**[=*false*]]
|
||
[**--tail**[=*"all"*]]
|
||
CONTAINER
|
||
|
||
# DESCRIPTION
|
||
The **docker logs** command batch-retrieves whatever logs are present for
|
||
a container at the time of execution. This does not guarantee execution
|
||
order when combined with a docker run (i.e., your run may not have generated
|
||
any logs at the time you execute docker logs).
|
||
|
||
The **docker logs --follow** command combines commands **docker logs** and
|
||
**docker attach**. It will first return all logs from the beginning and
|
||
then continue streaming new output from the container’s stdout and stderr.
|
||
|
||
**Warning**: This command works only for **json-file** logging driver.
|
||
|
||
# OPTIONS
|
||
**--help**
|
||
Print usage statement
|
||
|
||
**-f**, **--follow**=*true*|*false*
|
||
Follow log output. The default is *false*.
|
||
|
||
**--since**=""
|
||
Show logs since timestamp
|
||
|
||
**-t**, **--timestamps**=*true*|*false*
|
||
Show timestamps. The default is *false*.
|
||
|
||
**--tail**="all"
|
||
Output the specified number of lines at the end of logs (defaults to all logs)
|
||
|
||
The `--since` option shows only the container logs generated after
|
||
a given date. You can specify the date as an RFC 3339 date, a UNIX
|
||
timestamp, or a Go duration string (e.g. `1m30s`, `3h`). Docker computes
|
||
the date relative to the client machine’s time. You can combine
|
||
the `--since` option with either or both of the `--follow` or `--tail` options.
