# wait
|
||
|
|
||
|
```markdown
|
||
|
Usage: docker wait CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Block until one or more containers stop, then print their exit codes
|
||
|
|
||
|
Options:
|
||
|
--help Print usage
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Note**: `docker wait` returns `0` when run against a container which had
|
||
|
> already exited before the `docker wait` command was run.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Examples
|
||
|
|
||
|
Start a container in the background.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
$ docker run -dit --name=my_container ubuntu bash
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Run `docker wait`, which should block until the container exits.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
$ docker wait my_container
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
In another terminal, stop the first container. The `docker wait` command above
|
||
|
returns the exit code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
$ docker stop my_container
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is the same `docker wait` command from above, but it now exits, returning
|
||
|
`0`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
$ docker wait my_container
|
||
|
|
||
|
0
|
||
|
```
