   – network=(|)
   – publish=([/]|/[])
   – since=(|)
   – status=(created|restarting|removing|running|paused|exited)
   – volume=(|)

Format

The formatting option (–format) pretty-prints container output using a Go template.

Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:
   – .ID           – Container ID.
   – .Image        – Image ID.
   – .Command      – Quoted command.
   – .CreatedAt    – Time when the container was created.
   – .RunningFor   – Elapsed time since the container was started.
   – .Ports        – Exposed ports.
   – .Status       – Container status.
   – .Size         – Container disk size.
   – .Names        – Container names.
   – .Labels       – All labels assigned to the container.
   – .Label        – Value of a specific label for this container.
                     For example ‘{{.Label "com.docker.swarm.cpu"}}’.
   – .Mounts       – Names of the volumes mounted in this container.
   – .Networks     – Names of the networks attached to this container.
