NAME

docker-logs - Fetch the logs of a container

SYNOPSIS

docker logs [-f|--follow[=false]] [-t|--timestamps[=false]] [--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 containers stdout and stderr.

OPTIONS

-f, --follow=true|false Follow log output. The default is false.

-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)
