podman-ps: List all podman containers (running and stopped).
$ podman ps --all
try on your machine

The command "podman ps --all" is used to display information about all running and stopped pods and containers on a Linux system.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "podman" is the command-line tool used to manage pods and containers on a Linux system. It is an alternative to Docker.
  • "ps" is a subcommand that stands for "process status". It is used to list running and stopped containers or pods.
  • "--all" is an option that tells the "ps" command to display information about all pods and containers, regardless of their status (running or stopped). By default, the "ps" command only displays information about running containers or pods.

When you run the "podman ps --all" command, it will show a list of all pods and containers on your system, along with their status, ID, names, and other details. The status column will indicate whether a pod or container is running or stopped.
