Filtering

The filtering flag (-f or --filter) format is of “key=value”. If there is more than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., --filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz")

The currently supported filters are:

name

The name filter matches on all or part of a task’s name.

The following filter matches all tasks with a name containing the redis string.

$ docker node ps -f name=redis swarm-manager1

NAME                                IMAGE        NODE            DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE
redis.1.7q92v0nr1hcgts2amcjyqg3pq   redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 5 hours
redis.6.b465edgho06e318egmgjbqo4o   redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 29 seconds
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp   redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 5 seconds
redis.9.dkkual96p4bb3s6b10r7coxxt   redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 5 seconds
redis.10.0tgctg8h8cech4w0k0gwrmr23  redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 5 seconds

id

The id filter matches a task’s id.

$ docker node ps -f id=bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp swarm-manager1

NAME                                IMAGE        NODE            DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp   redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 5 seconds

label

The label filter matches tasks based on the presence of a label alone or a label and a value.

The following filter matches tasks with the usage label regardless of its value.

$ docker node ps -f "label=usage"

NAME                               IMAGE        NODE            DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE
redis.6.b465edgho06e318egmgjbqo4o  redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 10 minutes
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp  redis:3.0.6  swarm-manager1  Running        Running 9 minutes

desired-state

The desired-state filter can take the values running, shutdown, or accepted.

Formatting

The formatting options (--format) pretty-prints tasks output using a Go template.

Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

Placeholder Description
.Name Task name
.Image Task image
.Node Node ID
.DesiredState Desired state of the task (running, shutdown, or accepted)
.CurrentState Current state of the task
.Error Error
.Ports Task published ports

When using the --format option, the node ps command will either output 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 Name and Image entries separated by a colon for all tasks:

$ docker node ps --format "{{.Name}}: {{.Image}}"
top.1: busybox
top.2: busybox
top.3: busybox
