πŸ’… docker-context-inspect β€” like, the whole entire lore on your contexts

okay bestie so this is one of the pages from the Docker User Manuals, and it's the one you want when you're like "wait. what IS this context actually doing??" πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

docker-context-inspect β€” display detailed information on one or more contexts

no cap, that's literally the whole job description. it spills the tea on your contexts. πŸ«–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

docker context inspect [OPTIONS] [CONTEXT] [CONTEXT...]

so you run it, you optionally pass some options, and then you can name one context, or like… a whole lil squad of them. plural. [CONTEXT] [CONTEXT...]. it's giving "the more the merrier". πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Display detailed information on one or more contexts.

that's it. that's the vibe. you point it at contexts and it tells you everything about them β€” and yeah, you can ask about one or more at a time, so don't feel like you have to do them one by one like some kind of peasant. 🧚


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -f, --format="" β€” Format output using a custom template: 'json': Print in JSON format 'TEMPLATE': Print output using the given Go template. Refer to https://docs.docker.com/go/formatting/ for more information about formatting output with templates
okay so the default is "", empty string, which means you get the normal human-readable output. the moment you touch -f is the moment you decide you're a formatting person now. 😭
