podman ps lists the running containers on the system. Use the
--all flag to view all the containers information. By default it lists:
- •
- container id
- •
- the name of the image the container is using
- •
- the COMMAND the container is executing
- •
- the time the container was created
- •
- the status of the container
- •
- port mappings the container is using
- •
- alternative names for the container
Show all the containers created by Podman, default is only running containers.
Note: Podman shares containers storage with other tools such as Buildah and
CRI-O. In some cases these
external containers might also exist in the
same storage. Use the
--external option to see these external
containers. External containers show the 'storage' status.
Display external containers that are not controlled by Podman but are stored in
containers storage. These external containers are generally created via other
container technology such as Buildah or CRI-O and may depend on the same
container images that Podman is also using. External containers are denoted
with either a 'buildah' or 'storage' in the COMMAND and STATUS column of the
ps output.
Filter what containers are shown in the output. Multiple filters can be given
with multiple uses of the --filter flag. Filters with the same key work
inclusive with the only exception being
label which is exclusive.
Filters with different keys always work exclusive.
Valid filters are listed below:
Filter
|
Description
|
id |
[ID] Container's ID (accepts regex) |
name |
[Name] Container's name (accepts regex) |
label |
[Key] or [Key=Value] Label assigned to a container |
exited |
[Int] Container's exit code |
status |
[Status] Container's status: 'created', 'exited', 'paused', 'running',
'unknown' |
ancestor |
[ImageName] Image or descendant used to create container |
before |
[ID] or [Name] Containers created before this container |
since |
[ID] or [Name] Containers created since this container |
volume |
[VolumeName] or [MountpointDestination] Volume mounted in container |
health |
[Status] healthy or unhealthy |
pod |
[Pod] name or full or partial ID of pod |
network |
[Network] name or full ID of network |
Pretty-print containers to JSON or using a Go template
Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:
Placeholder
|
Description
|
.ID |
Container ID |
.Image |
Image Name/ID |
.ImageID |
Image ID |
.Command |
Quoted command used |
.CreatedAt |
Creation time for container |
.RunningFor |
Time elapsed since container was started |
.Status |
Status of container |
.Pod |
Pod the container is associated with |
.Ports |
Exposed ports |
.Size |
Size of container |
.Names |
Name of container |
.Networks |
Show all networks connected to the container |
.Labels |
All the labels assigned to the container |
.Mounts |
Volumes mounted in the container |
Print usage statement
Print the n last created containers (all states)
Show the latest container created (all states) (This option is not available
with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2)
machines)
Display namespace information
Do not truncate the output (default
false).
Omit the table headings from the listing of containers.
Display the pods the containers are associated with
Print the numeric IDs of the containers only
Display the total file size
Sort by command, created, id, image, names, runningfor, size, or status",
Note: Choosing size will sort by size of rootFs, not alphabetically like the
rest of the options
Force a sync of container state with the OCI runtime. In some cases, a
container's state in the runtime can become out of sync with Podman's state.
This will update Podman's state based on what the OCI runtime reports.
Forcibly syncing is much slower, but can resolve inconsistent state issues.
Refresh the output with current containers on an interval in seconds.
