# ps
```markdown
Usage: docker ps [OPTIONS]
List containers
Options:
-a, --all Show all containers (default shows just running)
-f, --filter value Filter output based on conditions provided (default [])
- exited=<int> an exit code of <int>
- label=<key> or label=<key>=<value>
- status=(created|restarting|running|paused|exited)
- name=<string> a container's name
- id=<ID> a container's ID
- before=(<container-name>|<container-id>)
- since=(<container-name>|<container-id>)
- ancestor=(<image-name>[:tag]|<image-id>|<image@digest>)
containers created from an image or a descendant.
--format string Pretty-print containers using a Go template
--help Print usage
-n, --last int Show n last created containers (includes all states) (default -1)
-l, --latest Show the latest created container (includes all states)
--no-trunc Don't truncate output
-q, --quiet Only display numeric IDs
-s, --size Display total file sizes
```
Running `docker ps --no-trunc` showing 2 linked containers.
```bash
$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
4c01db0b339c ubuntu:12.04 bash 17 seconds ago Up 16 seconds 3300-3310/tcp webapp
d7886598dbe2 crosbymichael/redis:latest /redis-server --dir 33 minutes ago Up 33 minutes 6379/tcp redis,webapp/db
```
The `docker ps` command only shows running containers by default. To see all
containers, use the `-a` (or `--all`) flag:
```bash
$ docker ps -a
```
`docker ps` groups exposed ports into a single range if possible. E.g., a
container that exposes TCP ports `100, 101, 102` displays `100-102/tcp` in
the `PORTS` column.
## Filtering
The filtering flag (`-f` or `--filter`) format is a `key=value` pair. If there is more
than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g. `--filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"`)
The currently supported filters are:
* id (container's id)
* label (`label=<key>` or `label=<key>=<value>`)
* name (container's name)
* exited (int - the code of exited containers. Only useful with `--all`)
* status (created|restarting|running|paused|exited|dead)
* ancestor (`<image-name>[:<tag>]`, `<image id>` or `<image@digest>`) - filters containers that were created from the given image or a descendant.
* before (container's id or name) - filters containers created before given id or name
* since (container's id or name) - filters containers created since given id or name
* isolation (default|process|hyperv) (Windows daemon only)
* volume (volume name or mount point) - filters containers that mount volumes.
* network (network id or name) - filters containers connected to the provided network
#### Label
The `label` filter matches containers based on the presence of a `label` alone or a `label` and a
value.
The following filter matches containers with the `color` label regardless of its value.
```bash
$ docker ps --filter "label=color"
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
673394ef1d4c busybox "top" 47 seconds ago Up 45 seconds nostalgic_shockley
d85756f57265 busybox "top" 52 seconds ago Up 51 seconds high_albattani
```
The following filter matches containers with the `color` label with the `blue` value.
```bash
$ docker ps --filter "label=color=blue"
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
d85756f57265 busybox "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute high_albattani
```
#### Name
The `name` filter matches on all or part of a container's name.
The following filter matches all containers with a name containing the `nostalgic_stallman` string.
```bash
$ docker ps --filter "name=nostalgic_stallman"
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9b6247364a03 busybox "top" 2 minutes ago Up 2 minutes nostalgic_stallman
```
You can also filter for a substring in a name as this shows:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter "name=nostalgic"
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
715ebfcee040 busybox "top" 3 seconds ago Up 1 seconds i_am_nostalgic
9b6247364a03 busybox "top" 7 minutes ago Up 7 minutes nostalgic_stallman
673394ef1d4c busybox "top" 38 minutes ago Up 38 minutes nostalgic_shockley
```
#### Exited
The `exited` filter matches containers by exist status code. For example, to
filter for containers that have exited successfully:
```bash
$ docker ps -a --filter 'exited=0'
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
ea09c3c82f6e registry:latest /srv/run.sh 2 weeks ago Exited (0) 2 weeks ago 127.0.0.1:5000->5000/tcp desperate_leakey
106ea823fe4e fedora:latest /bin/sh -c 'bash -l' 2 weeks ago Exited (0) 2 weeks ago determined_albattani
48ee228c9464 fedora:20 bash 2 weeks ago Exited (0) 2 weeks ago tender_torvalds
```
#### Status
The `status` filter matches containers by status. You can filter using
`created`, `restarting`, `running`, `paused`, `exited` and `dead`. For example,
to filter for `running` containers:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter status=running
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
715ebfcee040 busybox "top" 16 minutes ago Up 16 minutes i_am_nostalgic
d5c976d3c462 busybox "top" 23 minutes ago Up 23 minutes top
9b6247364a03 busybox "top" 24 minutes ago Up 24 minutes nostalgic_stallman
```
To filter for `paused` containers:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter status=paused
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
673394ef1d4c busybox "top" About an hour ago Up About an hour (Paused) nostalgic_shockley
```
#### Ancestor
The `ancestor` filter matches containers based on its image or a descendant of
it. The filter supports the following image representation:
- image
- image:tag
- image:tag@digest
- short-id
- full-id
If you don't specify a `tag`, the `latest` tag is used. For example, to filter
for containers that use the latest `ubuntu` image:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter ancestor=ubuntu
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
919e1179bdb8 ubuntu-c1 "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute admiring_lovelace
5d1e4a540723 ubuntu-c2 "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute admiring_sammet
82a598284012 ubuntu "top" 3 minutes ago Up 3 minutes sleepy_bose
bab2a34ba363 ubuntu "top" 3 minutes ago Up 3 minutes focused_yonath
```
Match containers based on the `ubuntu-c1` image which, in this case, is a child
of `ubuntu`:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter ancestor=ubuntu-c1
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
919e1179bdb8 ubuntu-c1 "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute admiring_lovelace
```
Match containers based on the `ubuntu` version `12.04.5` image:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter ancestor=ubuntu:12.04.5
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
82a598284012 ubuntu:12.04.5 "top" 3 minutes ago Up 3 minutes sleepy_bose
```
The following matches containers based on the layer `d0e008c6cf02` or an image
that have this layer in it's layer stack.
```bash
$ docker ps --filter ancestor=d0e008c6cf02
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
82a598284012 ubuntu:12.04.5 "top" 3 minutes ago Up 3 minutes sleepy_bose
```
#### Before
The `before` filter shows only containers created before the container with
given id or name. For example, having these containers created:
```bash
$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9c3527ed70ce busybox "top" 14 seconds ago Up 15 seconds desperate_dubinsky
4aace5031105 busybox "top" 48 seconds ago Up 49 seconds focused_hamilton
6e63f6ff38b0 busybox "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute distracted_fermat
```
Filtering with `before` would give:
```bash
$ docker ps -f before=9c3527ed70ce
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
4aace5031105 busybox "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute focused_hamilton
6e63f6ff38b0 busybox "top" About a minute ago Up About a minute distracted_fermat
```
#### Since
The `since` filter shows only containers created since the container with given
id or name. For example, with the same containers as in `before` filter:
```bash
$ docker ps -f since=6e63f6ff38b0
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9c3527ed70ce busybox "top" 10 minutes ago Up 10 minutes desperate_dubinsky
4aace5031105 busybox "top" 10 minutes ago Up 10 minutes focused_hamilton
```
#### Volume
The `volume` filter shows only containers that mount a specific volume or have
a volume mounted in a specific path:
```bash
$ docker ps --filter volume=remote-volume --format "table {{.ID}}\t{{.Mounts}}"
CONTAINER ID MOUNTS
9c3527ed70ce remote-volume
$ docker ps --filter volume=/data --format "table {{.ID}}\t{{.Mounts}}"
CONTAINER ID MOUNTS
9c3527ed70ce remote-volume
```
#### Network
The `network` filter shows only containers that are connected to a network with
a given name or id.
The following filter matches all containers that are connected to a network
with a name containing `net1`.
```bash
$ docker run -d --net=net1 --name=test1 ubuntu top
$ docker run -d --net=net2 --name=test2 ubuntu top
$ docker ps --filter network=net1
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9d4893ed80fe ubuntu "top" 10 minutes ago Up 10 minutes test1
```
The network filter matches on both the network's name and id. The following
example shows all containers that are attached to the `net1` network, using
the network id as a filter;
```bash
$ docker network inspect --format "{{.ID}}" net1
8c0b4110ae930dbe26b258de9bc34a03f98056ed6f27f991d32919bfe401d7c5
$ docker ps --filter network=8c0b4110ae930dbe26b258de9bc34a03f98056ed6f27f991d32919bfe401d7c5
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9d4893ed80fe ubuntu "top" 10 minutes ago Up 10 minutes test1
```
## Formatting
The formatting option (`--format`) pretty-prints container output using a Go
template.
Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:
Placeholder | Description
--------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
`.ID` | Container ID
`.Image` | Image ID
`.Command` | Quoted command
`.CreatedAt` | Time when the container was created.
`.RunningFor` | Elapsed time since the container was started.
`.Ports` | Exposed ports.
`.Status` | Container status.
`.Size` | Container disk size.
`.Names` | Container names.
`.Labels` | All labels assigned to the container.
`.Label` | Value of a specific label for this container. For example `'{{.Label "com.docker.swarm.cpu"}}'`
`.Mounts` | Names of the volumes mounted in this container.
When using the `--format` option, the `ps` command will either output the data
exactly as the template declares or, when using the `table` directive, includes
column headers as well.
The following example uses a template without headers and outputs the `ID` and
`Command` entries separated by a colon for all running containers:
```bash
$ docker ps --format "{{.ID}}: {{.Command}}"
a87ecb4f327c: /bin/sh -c #(nop) MA
01946d9d34d8: /bin/sh -c #(nop) MA
c1d3b0166030: /bin/sh -c yum -y up
41d50ecd2f57: /bin/sh -c #(nop) MA
```
To list all running containers with their labels in a table format you can use:
```bash
$ docker ps --format "table {{.ID}}\t{{.Labels}}"
