stats

Usage:  docker stats [OPTIONS] [CONTAINER...]

Display a live stream of container(s) resource usage statistics

Options:
  -a, --all             Show all containers (default shows just running)
      --format string   Pretty-print images using a Go template
      --help            Print usage
      --no-stream       Disable streaming stats and only pull the first result
      --no-trunc        Don't truncate output

Description

The docker stats command returns a live data stream for running containers. To limit data to one or more specific containers, specify a list of container names or ids separated by a space. You can specify a stopped container but stopped containers do not return any data.

If you need more detailed information about a container's resource usage, use the /containers/(id)/stats API endpoint.

Note

On Linux, the Docker CLI reports memory usage by subtracting cache usage from the total memory usage. The API does not perform such a calculation but rather provides the total memory usage and the amount from the cache so that clients can use the data as needed. The cache usage is defined as the value of total_inactive_file field in the memory.stat file on cgroup v1 hosts.

On Docker 19.03 and older, the cache usage was defined as the value of cache field. On cgroup v2 hosts, the cache usage is defined as the value of inactive_file field.

Note

The PIDS column contains the number of processes and kernel threads created by that container. Threads is the term used by Linux kernel. Other equivalent terms are "lightweight process" or "kernel task", etc. A large number in the PIDS column combined with a small number of processes (as reported by ps or top) may indicate that something in the container is creating many threads.

Examples

Running docker stats on all running containers against a Linux daemon.

$ docker stats

If you don't specify a format string using --format, the following columns are shown.

Column name Description
CONTAINER ID and Name the ID and name of the container
CPU % and MEM % the percentage of the host's CPU and memory the container is using
MEM USAGE / LIMIT the total memory the container is using, and the total amount of memory it is allowed to use
NET I/O The amount of data the container has sent and received over its network interface
BLOCK I/O The amount of data the container has read to and written from block devices on the host
PIDs the number of processes or threads the container has created

Running docker stats with customized format on all (Running and Stopped) containers.

$ docker stats --all --format "table {{.Container}}\t{{.CPUPerc}}\t{{.MemUsage}}" fervent_panini 5acfcb1b4fd1 drunk_visvesvaraya big_heisenberg

CONTAINER                CPU %               MEM USAGE / LIMIT
fervent_panini           0.00%               56KiB / 15.57GiB
5acfcb1b4fd1             0.07%               32.86MiB / 15.57GiB
drunk_visvesvaraya       0.00%               0B / 0B
big_heisenberg           0.00%               0B / 0B

drunk_visvesvaraya and big_heisenberg are stopped containers in the above example.

Formatting

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

Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

Placeholder Description
.Container Container name or ID (user input)
.Name Container name
.ID Container ID
.CPUPerc CPU percentage
.MemUsage Memory usage
.NetIO Network IO
.BlockIO Block IO
.MemPerc Memory percentage (Not available on Windows)
.PIDs Number of PIDs (Not available on Windows)

When using the --format option, the stats command either outputs the data exactly as the template declares or, when using the table directive, includes column headers as well.

The following example uses a template without headers and outputs the Container and CPUPerc entries separated by a colon (:) for all images:

$ docker stats --format "{{.Container}}: {{.CPUPerc}}"

09d3bb5b1604: 6.61%
9db7aa4d986d: 9.19%
3f214c61ad1d: 0.00%

To list all containers statistics with their name, CPU percentage and memory usage in a table format you can use:

$ docker stats --format "table {{.Container}}\t{{.CPUPerc}}\t{{.MemUsage}}"

CONTAINER           CPU %               PRIV WORKING SET
1285939c1fd3        0.07%               796 KiB / 64 MiB
9c76f7834ae2        0.07%               2.746 MiB / 64 MiB
d1ea048f04e4        0.03%               4.583 MiB / 64 MiB

The default format is as follows:

On Linux:

"table {{.ID}}\t{{.Name}}\t{{.CPUPerc}}\t{{.MemUsage}}\t{{.MemPerc}}\t{{.NetIO}}\t{{.BlockIO}}\t{{.PIDs}}"

On Windows:

"table {{.ID}}\t{{.Name}}\t{{.CPUPerc}}\t{{.MemUsage}}\t{{.NetIO}}\t{{.BlockIO}}"
