exporting docker container can not be performed

I'm working with several docker container and needed to export one . I assumed docker export is a way to migrate container. as i am running this command as

docker export {container-name}

I'm getting this error

cowardly refusing to save to a terminal. Use the -o flag or redirect
Solution

  • You should use -o flag as it says in your error:

    docker export {container name} -o filename
