List only stopped Docker containers


Docker gives you a way of listing running containers or all containers including stopped ones.

This can be done by:

$ docker ps # To list running containers

Or by

$ docker ps -a # To list running and stopped containers

Do we have a way of only listing containers that have been stopped?


Solution

  • Only stopped containers can be listed using:

    docker ps --filter "status=exited"
    

    or

    docker ps -f "status=exited"
