Examples

List the tasks that are part of a service

The following command shows all the tasks that are part of the redis service:

$ docker service ps redis

ID             NAME      IMAGE        NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE          ERROR  PORTS

8eaxrb2fqpbn   redis.10  redis:3.0.5  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds

In addition to running tasks, the output also shows the task history. For example, after updating the service to use the redis:3.0.6 image, the output may look like this:

$ docker service ps redis

ID            NAME         IMAGE        NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE                   ERROR  PORTS

blkttv7zs8ee   \_ redis.4  redis:3.0.5  worker1   Shutdown       Shutdown 11 seconds ago

The number of items in the task history is determined by the --task-history-limit option that was set when initializing the swarm. You can change the task history retention limit using the docker swarm update command.

When deploying a service, docker resolves the digest for the service’s image, and pins the service to that digest. The digest is not shown by default, but is printed if --no-trunc is used. The --no-trunc option also shows the non-truncated task ID, and error-messages, as can be seen below;

$ docker service ps --no-trunc redis

ID                          NAME         IMAGE                                                                                NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE            ERROR                                                                                           PORTS

Filtering

The filtering flag (-f or --filter) format is a key=value pair. If there is more than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g. --filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"). Multiple filter flags are combined as an OR filter. For example, -f name=redis.1 -f name=redis.7 returns both redis.1 and redis.7 tasks.

The currently supported filters are:

id

The id filter matches on all or a prefix of a task’s ID.

$ docker service ps -f "id=8" redis

ID             NAME      IMAGE        NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE      ERROR  PORTS
8ryt076polmc   redis.4   redis:3.0.6  worker1   Running        Running 9 seconds
8eaxrb2fqpbn   redis.10  redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds

name

The name filter matches on task names.

$ docker service ps -f "name=redis.1" redis
ID            NAME     IMAGE        NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE      ERROR  PORTS
qihejybwf1x5  redis.1  redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds

node

The node filter matches on a node name or a node ID.

$ docker service ps -f "node=manager1" redis
ID            NAME      IMAGE        NODE      DESIRED STATE  CURRENT STATE      ERROR  PORTS
0qihejybwf1x  redis.1   redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds
1x0v8yomsncd  redis.5   redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds
3w1wu13yupln  redis.9   redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds
8eaxrb2fqpbn  redis.10  redis:3.0.6  manager1  Running        Running 8 seconds

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
.ID Task ID
.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 service 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 service ps --format "{{.Name}}: {{.Image}}" top
top.1: busybox
top.2: busybox
top.3: busybox
