# NAME
|
||
docker-logs - Fetch the logs of a container
|
||
|
||
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
**docker logs**
|
||
[**-f**|**--follow**]
|
||
[**--help**]
|
||
[**--since**[=*SINCE*]]
|
||
[**-t**|**--timestamps**]
|
||
[**--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 the **json-file** or **journald**
|
||
logging drivers.
|
||
|
||
# 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 can be Unix timestamps, date formatted timestamps, or Go
|
||
duration strings (e.g. `10m`, `1h30m`) computed relative to the client machine’s
|
||
time. Supported formats for date formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano,
|
||
RFC3339, `2006-01-02T15:04:05`, `2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999`,
|
||
`2006-01-02Z07:00`, and `2006-01-02`. The local timezone on the client will be
|
||
used if you do not provide either a `Z` or a `+-00:00` timezone offset at the
|
||
end of the timestamp. When providing Unix timestamps enter
|
||
seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds that have elapsed
|
||
since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap seconds (aka Unix
|
||
epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a fraction of a
|
||
second no more than nine digits long. You can combine the `--since` option with
|
||
either or both of the `--follow` or `--tail` options.
