     1  # Docker Experimental Features
     2  
     3  This page contains a list of features in the Docker engine which are
     4  experimental. Experimental features are **not** ready for production. They are
     5  provided for test and evaluation in your sandbox environments.
     6  
     7  The information below describes each feature and the GitHub pull requests and
     8  issues associated with it. If necessary, links are provided to additional
     9  documentation on an issue.  As an active Docker user and community member,
    10  please feel free to provide any feedback on these features you wish.
    11  
    12  ## Use Docker experimental
    13  
    14  Experimental features are now included in the standard Docker binaries as of
    15  version 1.13.0.
    16  To enable experimental features, start the Docker daemon with the
    17  `--experimental` flag or enable the daemon flag in the
    18  `/etc/docker/daemon.json` configuration file:
    19  
    20  ```json
    21  {
    22      "experimental": true
    23  }
    24  ```
    25  
    26  You can check to see if experimental features are enabled on a running daemon
    27  using the following command:
    28  
    29  ```bash
    30  $ docker version -f '{{.Server.Experimental}}'
    31  true
    32  ```
    33  
    34  ## Current experimental features
    35  
    36  Docker service logs command to view logs for a Docker service. This is needed in Swarm mode.

    39  Metrics (Prometheus) output for basic container, image, and daemon operations.

    46  ## How to comment on an experimental feature
