NAME

podman-inspect - Display a container or image's configuration

SYNOPSIS

podman inspect [options [...]] name [...]

DESCRIPTION

This displays the low-level information on containers and images identified by name or ID. 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

--type, t="TYPE"

Return JSON for the specified type. Type can be 'container', 'image' or 'all' (default: all)

--format, -f="FORMAT"

Format the output using the given Go template. The keys of the returned JSON can be used as the values for the --format flag (see examples below).

--latest, -l

Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.

--size

Display the total file size if the type is a container

EXAMPLE

# podman inspect fedora
