# Docker Remote API v1.5
# 1. Brief introduction
- The Remote API is replacing rcli
- Default port in the docker daemon is 2375
- The API tends to be REST, but for some complex commands, like attach
or pull, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport stdout stdin
and stderr
# 2. Endpoints

### Monitor Docker's events
`GET /events`
Get events from docker, either in real time via streaming, or via
polling (using since).
Docker containers will report the following events:
create, destroy, die, export, kill, pause, restart, start, stop, unpause
and Docker images will report:
untag, delete
**Example request**:
GET /events?since=1374067924
**Example response**:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{"status":"create","id":"dfdf82bd3881","from":"ubuntu:latest","time":1374067924}
{"status":"start","id":"dfdf82bd3881","from":"ubuntu:latest","time":1374067924}
{"status":"stop","id":"dfdf82bd3881","from":"ubuntu:latest","time":1374067966}
{"status":"destroy","id":"dfdf82bd3881","from":"ubuntu:latest","time":1374067970}
Query Parameters:
- **since** timestamp used for polling
Status Codes:
- **200** no error
- **500** server error
# 3. Going further
## 3.1 Inside `docker run`
Here are the steps of `docker run`:
- Create the container
- If the status code is 404, it means the image doesn't exist:
Try to pull it - Then retry to create the container
- Start the container
- If you are not in detached mode:
Attach to the container, using logs=1 (to have stdout and stderr
from the container's start) and stream=1
- If in detached mode or only stdin is attached:
Display the container's id
## 3.2 Hijacking
In this version of the API, /attach, uses hijacking to transport stdin,
stdout and stderr on the same socket. This might change in the future.
## 3.3 CORS Requests
To enable cross origin requests to the remote api add the flag
"--api-enable-cors" when running docker in daemon mode.
$ docker -d -H="192.168.1.9:2375" --api-enable-cors
