NAME
docker-inspect - Return low-level information on a container or image
SYNOPSIS
docker inspect [--help] [-f|--format[=FORMAT]] [-s|--size] [--type=con-
tainer|image] CONTAINER|IMAGE [CONTAINER|IMAGE...]
DESCRIPTION
This displays all the information available in Docker for a given con-
tainer or image. By default, this will render all results in a JSON
array. If the container and image have the same name, this will return
container JSON for unspecified type. If a format is specified, the
given template will be executed for each result.
OPTIONS
--help
Print usage statement
-f, --format=""
Format the output using the given Go template.
-s, --size
Display total file sizes if the type is container.
--type="container|image"
Return JSON for specified type, permissible values are "image" or
"container"
EXAMPLES
Get information about an image when image name conflicts with the con-
tainer name, e.g. both image and container are named rhel7:
$ docker inspect --type=image rhel7

Getting information on a container
To get information on a container use its ID or instance name:

Getting the IP address of a container instance
To get the IP address of a container use:
$ docker inspect --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' d2cc496561d6
172.17.0.2
Listing all port bindings
One can loop over arrays and maps in the results to produce simple text
output:
$ docker inspect --format='{{range $p, $conf := .NetworkSettings.Ports}} \
{{$p}} -> {{(index $conf 0).HostPort}} {{end}}' d2cc496561d6
80/tcp -> 80
You can get more information about how to write a Go template from:
<https://golang.org/pkg/text/template/>.
Getting size information on an container
$ docker inspect -s d2cc496561d6
[
{
"SizeRw": 0,
"SizeRootFs": 972,
}
]
Getting information on an image
Use an image's ID or name (e.g., repository/name[:tag]) to get informa-
tion about the image:
$ docker inspect ded7cd95e059
[{
