Docker search and description column

I have a problem with DESCRIPTION column in Docker Toolbox. When I am searching for example like below: enter image description here

I don't see full value in DESCRIPTION column. I didn't see anything about this problem in https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/search/#extended-description. There is some magic trick to resolved it?

Only way is put full description into "Readme"?

Solution

  • Use the --no-trunc switch:

    # docker search --no-trunc oracle
NAME                                DESCRIPTION                                                                                          STARS     OFFICIAL   AUTOMATED

    I think docker toolbox is some Windows related thing. Have tested it on Linux only but It should work on Win too, when it's a full compatible port of the Linux Docker.
