% podman(1) podman-inspect - Display a container or image's configuration
% Dan Walsh
# podman-inspect "1" "July 2017" "podman"

## NAME
podman inspect - Display a container or image's configuration

## SYNOPSIS
**podman** **inspect** [*options* [...]] name [...]

## DESCRIPTION
This displays the low-level information on containers and images identified by name or ID. By default, this will render
all results in a JSON array. If the container and image have the same name, this will return container JSON for
unspecified type. If a format is specified, the given template will be executed for each result.

## OPTIONS

**--type, t="TYPE"**

Return JSON for the specified type.  Type can be 'container', 'image' or 'all' (default: all)

**--format, -f="FORMAT"**

Format the output using the given Go template.
The keys of the returned JSON can be used as the values for the --format flag (see examples below).

**--latest, -l**
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.

**--size**

Display the total file size if the type is a container


## EXAMPLE

```
# podman inspect fedora
