# node ps
```markdown
Usage: docker node ps [OPTIONS] [NODE...]
List tasks running on one or more nodes, defaults to current node.
Options:
-f, --filter filter Filter output based on conditions provided
--format string Pretty-print tasks using a Go template
--help Print usage
--no-resolve Do not map IDs to Names
--no-trunc Do not truncate output
-q, --quiet Only display task IDs
```
## Description
Lists all the tasks on a Node that Docker knows about. You can filter using the
`-f` or `--filter` flag. Refer to the [filtering](#filter) section for more
information about available filter options.
> **Note**
>
> This is a cluster management command, and must be executed on a swarm
> manager node. To learn about managers and workers, refer to the
> [Swarm mode section](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/) in the
> documentation.
## Examples
```console
$ docker node ps swarm-manager1
NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE
redis.1.7q92v0nr1hcgts2amcjyqg3pq redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 hours
redis.6.b465edgho06e318egmgjbqo4o redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 29 seconds
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
redis.9.dkkual96p4bb3s6b10r7coxxt redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
redis.10.0tgctg8h8cech4w0k0gwrmr23 redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
```
### <a name="filter"></a> Filtering (--filter)
The filtering flag (`-f` or `--filter`) format is of "key=value". If there is more
than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., `--filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"`)
The currently supported filters are:
* [name](#name)
* [id](#id)
* [label](#label)
* [desired-state](#desired-state)
#### name
The `name` filter matches on all or part of a task's name.
The following filter matches all tasks with a name containing the `redis` string.
```console
$ docker node ps -f name=redis swarm-manager1
NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE
redis.1.7q92v0nr1hcgts2amcjyqg3pq redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 hours
redis.6.b465edgho06e318egmgjbqo4o redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 29 seconds
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
redis.9.dkkual96p4bb3s6b10r7coxxt redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
redis.10.0tgctg8h8cech4w0k0gwrmr23 redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
```
#### id
The `id` filter matches a task's id.
```console
$ docker node ps -f id=bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp swarm-manager1
NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 5 seconds
```
#### label
The `label` filter matches tasks based on the presence of a `label` alone or a `label` and a
value.
The following filter matches tasks with the `usage` label regardless of its value.
```console
$ docker node ps -f "label=usage"
NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE
redis.6.b465edgho06e318egmgjbqo4o redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 10 minutes
redis.7.bg8c07zzg87di2mufeq51a2qp redis:3.0.6 swarm-manager1 Running Running 9 minutes
```
#### desired-state
The `desired-state` filter can take the values `running`, `shutdown`, or `accepted`.
### <a name="format"></a> Format the output (--format)
The formatting options (`--format`) pretty-prints tasks output
using a Go template.
Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:
| Placeholder | Description |
|-----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `.ID` | Task ID |
| `.Name` | Task name |
| `.Image` | Task image |
| `.Node` | Node ID |
| `.DesiredState` | Desired state of the task (`running`, `shutdown`, or `accepted`) |
| `.CurrentState` | Current state of the task |
| `.Error` | Error |
| `.Ports` | Task published ports |
When using the `--format` option, the `node ps` command will either
output the data exactly as the template declares or, when using the
`table` directive, includes column headers as well.
The following example uses a template without headers and outputs the
`Name` and `Image` entries separated by a colon (`:`) for all tasks:
```console
$ docker node ps --format "{{.Name}}: {{.Image}}"
top.1: busybox
top.2: busybox
top.3: busybox
```
