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 want 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 page 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 page cache so that clients can use the data as needed.
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 on multiple containers by name and id against a Linux daemon.

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

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}}"
Note: On Docker 17.09 and older, the
{{.Container}}column was used, in stead of{{.ID}}\t{{.Name}}.
