Information can include historical 17 information and real-time information. 18 19 Docker containers will report the following events: 20 21 attach, commit, copy, create, destroy, die, exec_create, exec_start, export, kill, oom, pause, rename, resize, restart, start, stop, top, unpause 22 23 and Docker images will report: 24 25 delete, import, pull, push, tag, untag 26 27 # OPTIONS 28 **--help** 29 Print usage statement 30 31 **-f**, **--filter**=[] 32 Provide filter values (i.e., 'event=stop') 33 34 **--since**="" 35 Show all events created since timestamp 36 37 **--until**="" 38 Stream events until this timestamp 39 40 The `--since` and `--until` parameters can be Unix timestamps, date formatted 41 timestamps, or Go duration strings (e.g. `10m`, `1h30m`) computed 42 relative to the client machine’s time. If you do not provide the --since option, 43 the command returns only new and/or live events. Supported formats for date 44 formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano, RFC3339, `2006-01-02T15:04:05`, 45 `2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999`, `2006-01-02Z07:00`, and `2006-01-02`. The local 46 timezone on the client will be used if you do not provide either a `Z` or a 47 `+-00:00` timezone offset at the end of the timestamp. When providing Unix 48 timestamps enter seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds 49 that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap 50 seconds (aka Unix epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a 51 fraction of a second no more than nine digits long. 52 53 # EXAMPLES 54 55 ## Listening for Docker events 56 57 After running docker events a container 786d698004576 is started and stopped 58 (The container name has been shortened in the output below): 59 60 # docker events 61 2015-01-28T20:21:31.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start 62 2015-01-28T20:21:31.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die 63 2015-01-28T20:21:32.000000000-08:00 59211849bc10: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop 64 65 ## Listening for events since a given date 66 Again the output container IDs have been shortened for the purposes of this document: 67 68 # docker events --since '2015-01-28' 69 2015-01-28T20:25:38.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) create 70 2015-01-28T20:25:38.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start 71 2015-01-28T20:25:39.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) create 72 2015-01-28T20:25:39.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start 73 2015-01-28T20:25:40.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die 74 2015-01-28T20:25:42.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop 75 2015-01-28T20:25:45.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) start 76 2015-01-28T20:25:45.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) die 77 2015-01-28T20:25:46.000000000-08:00 c21f6c22ba27: (from whenry/testimage:latest) stop 78 79 The following example outputs all events that were generated in the last 3 minutes, 80 relative to the current time on the client machine: 81 82 # docker events --since '3m' 83 2015-05-12T11:51:30.999999999Z07:00 4386fb97867d: (from ubuntu-1:14.04) die 84 2015-05-12T15:52:12.999999999Z07:00 4386fb97867d: (from ubuntu-1:14.04) stop 85 2015-05-12T15:53:45.999999999Z07:00 7805c1d35632: (from redis:2.8) die 86 2015-05-12T15:54:03.999999999Z07:00 7805c1d35632: (from redis:2.8) stop 87 88 If you do not provide the --since option, the command returns only new and/or 89 live events. 90 91 # HISTORY 92 April 2014, Originally compiled by William Henry (whenry at redhat dot com) 93 based on docker.com source material and internal work. 94 June 2014, updated by Sven Dowideit <SvenDowideit@home.org.au> 95 June 2015, updated by Brian Goff <cpuguy83@gmail.com> 96 October 2015, updated by Mike Brown <mikebrow@gmail.com>
