NAME
buildah-inspect - Display information about working containers or images
or manifest lists.
SYNOPSIS
buildah inspect [options] [--] object
DESCRIPTION
Prints the low-level information on Buildah object(s) (e.g. container,
images, manifest lists) identified by name or ID. By default, this will
render all results in a JSON array. If the container, image, or manifest
lists have the same name, this will return container JSON for an unspec-
ified type. If a format is specified, the given template will be exe-
cuted for each result.
OPTIONS
--format, -f template
Use template as a Go template when formatting the output.
Users of this option should be familiar with the
⟨https://golang.org/pkg/text/template/⟩ in the Go standard library, and
of internals of Buildah's implementation.
--type, -t container | image | manifest
Specify whether object is a container, image or a manifest list.
EXAMPLE
buildah inspect containerID
buildah inspect --type container containerID
buildah inspect --type image imageID
