podman-attach - Man Page
Attach to a running container
Synopsis
podman attach [options] container
podman container attach [options] container
Description
podman attach attaches to a running container using the container's name or ID, to either view its ongoing output or to control it interactively.
The container can be detached from (and leave it running) using a configurable key sequence. The default sequence is ctrl-p,ctrl-q. Configure the keys sequence using the --detach-keys OPTION, or specifying it in the containers.conf file: see containers.conf(5) for more information.
Options
--detach-keys=sequence
Specify the key sequence for detaching a container. Format is a single character [a-Z] or one or more ctrl-<value> characters where <value> is one of: a-z, @, ^, [, , or _. Specifying "" will disable this feature. The default is ctrl-p,ctrl-q.
This option can also be set in containers.conf(5) file.
--latest, -l
Instead of providing the container ID or name, use the last created container. If other methods than Podman are used to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.
The default is false.
IMPORTANT: This OPTION is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines. This OPTION does not need a container name or ID as input argument.
--no-stdin
Do not attach STDIN. The default is false.
--sig-proxy
Proxy received signals to the container process (non-TTY mode only). SIGCHLD, SIGSTOP, and SIGKILL are not proxied.
The default is true.
Examples

$ podman attach foobar
Attach to the latest created container.
$ podman attach --latest
Attach to a container that start with the ID "1234".
$ podman attach 1234
Attach to a container without attaching STDIN.
