NAME
docker-events - Get real time events from the server
SYNOPSIS
docker events [--help] [-f|--filter[=[]]] [--since[=SINCE]] [--until[=UNTIL]] [--format[=FORMAT]]
DESCRIPTION
Get event information from the Docker daemon. Information can include historical information and real-time information.
Docker containers will report the following events:
attach, commit, copy, create, destroy, detach, die, exec_create, exec_detach, exec_start, export, kill, oom, pause, rename, resize, restart, start, stop, top, unpause, update
Docker images report the following events:
delete, import, load, pull, push, save, tag, untag
Docker volumes report the following events:
create, mount, unmount, destroy
Docker networks report the following events:
create, connect, disconnect, destroy
OPTIONS
--help Print usage statement
-f, --filter=[] Filter output based on these conditions
- container (
container=<name or id>
) - event (
event=<event action>
) - image (
image=<tag or id>
) - plugin (experimental) (
plugin=<name or id>
) - label (
label=<key>
orlabel=<key>=<value>
) - type (
type=<container or image or volume or network or daemon>
) - volume (
volume=<name or id>
) - network (
network=<name or id>
) - daemon (
daemon=<name or id>
)
--since="" Show all events created since timestamp
--until="" Stream events until this timestamp
--format="" Format the output using the given Go template
The --since
and --until
parameters can be Unix timestamps, date formatted
timestamps, or Go duration strings (e.g. 10m
, 1h30m
) computed
relative to the client machine's time. If you do not provide the --since
option,
the command returns only new and/or live events. 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.
EXAMPLES
Listening for Docker events
After running docker events a container 786d698004576 is started and stopped (The container name has been shortened in the output below):
# docker events
2015-01-28T20:21:31.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start
2015-01-28T20:21:31.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die
2015-01-28T20:21:32.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop
Listening for events since a given date
Again the output container IDs have been shortened for the purposes of this document:
# docker events --since '2015-01-28'
2015-01-28T20:25:38.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) create
2015-01-28T20:25:38.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start
2015-01-28T20:25:39.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) create
2015-01-28T20:25:39.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start
2015-01-28T20:25:40.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die
2015-01-28T20:25:42.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop
2015-01-28T20:25:45.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start
2015-01-28T20:25:45.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die
2015-01-28T20:25:46.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop
The following example outputs all events that were generated in the last 3 minutes, relative to the current time on the client machine:
# docker events --since '3m'
2015-05-12T11:51:30.999999999Z07:00 4386fb97867d: (from ubuntu-1:14.04) die
2015-05-12T15:52:12.999999999Z07:00 4386fb97867d: (from ubuntu-1:14.04) stop
2015-05-12T15:53:45.999999999Z07:00 7805c1d35632: (from redis:2.8) die
2015-05-12T15:54:03.999999999Z07:00 7805c1d35632: (from redis:2.8) stop
If you do not provide the --since option, the command returns only new and/or live events.
Format
If a format (--format
) is specified, the given template will be executed
instead of the default format. Go's text/template package describes all the
details of the format.
# docker events --filter 'type=container' --format 'Type={{.Type}} Status={{.Status}} ID={{.ID}}'
Type=container Status=create ID=2ee349dac409e97974ce8d01b70d250b85e0ba8189299c126a87812311951e26

If a format is set to {{json .}}
, the events are streamed as valid JSON
Lines. For information about JSON Lines, please refer to http://jsonlines.org/ .
