docker: Print logs from a container.
$ docker logs ${container_name}
try on your machine
The command "docker logs ${container_name}" is used to retrieve the logs of a Docker container in real-time.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "docker logs" is the command to interact with Docker and retrieve logs.
- "${container_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the Docker container you want to retrieve logs from. You should replace it with the relevant container name.
When you execute this command, Docker will display the logs of the specified container, including both stdout and stderr outputs. The logs are displayed in real-time, which means they will continuously update as new logs are generated by the container.
This command is helpful for monitoring and troubleshooting Docker containers, as it allows you to view useful information about the container's activities and any errors or warnings that may occur.
