CLI and log output formatting reference format, formatting, output, templates, log Format command and log output

Docker uses Go templates to allow users manipulate the output format of certain commands and log drivers. Each command a driver provides a detailed list of elements they support in their templates:

Template functions

Docker provides a set of basic functions to manipulate template elements. This is the complete list of the available functions with examples:

Join

Join concatenates a list of strings to create a single string. It puts a separator between each element in the list.

$ docker ps --format '{{join .Names " or "}}'

Json

Json encodes an element as a json string.

$ docker inspect --format '{{json .Mounts}}' container

Lower

Lower turns a string into its lower case representation.

$ docker inspect --format "{{lower .Name}}" container

Split

Split slices a string into a list of strings separated by a separator.

{% raw %}
# docker inspect --format '{{split (join .Names "/") "/"}}' container
{% endraw %}

Title

Title capitalizes a string.

$ docker inspect --format "{{title .Name}}" container

Upper

Upper turms a string into its upper case representation.

$ docker inspect --format "{{upper .Name}}" container
