podman-wait(1)

NAME

podman-wait - Wait on one or more containers to stop and print their exit codes

SYNOPSIS

podman wait [options] container

podman container wait [options] container

DESCRIPTION

Waits on one or more containers to stop. The container can be referred to by its name or ID. In the case of multiple containers, podman will wait on each consecutively. After the container stops, the container's return code is printed.

OPTIONS

--help, -h

Print usage statement

--interval, -i=microseconds
  Microseconds to wait before polling for completion

--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.

The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

EXAMPLES

    $ podman wait mywebserver
    $ podman wait --latest
    $ podman wait 860a4b23
    $ podman wait mywebserver myftpserver
