My intention is to check whether a given container is running or not. In order to perform that am using docker-py SDK.
cli = docker.APIClient()
cli.inspect_container('festive_bell').items()
And I got the output as following

I need to get the value of 'Running' field from the dictionary. For checking whether the docker is running or not. I would like to know how to retrive them
def checkContainerStatus(containers):
container_status = {}
active=[]
inactive=[]
not_found=[]
if containers:
for container in containers:
inspect_dict = cli.inspect_container('festive_bell')
state = inspect_dict['State']
is_running = state['Status'] == 'running'
if is_running:
active.append(container)
else:
inactive.append(container)
container_status= {'active':active,'inactive':inactive,'not_found':not_found }
print(container_status)
Is it possible to perform dictionary Comprehension on above code
You want the State field given by inspect which will look like:
"State": {
"Status": "running",
"Running": true,
"Paused": false,
"Restarting": false,
"OOMKilled": false,
"Dead": false,
"Pid": 10268,
"ExitCode": 0,
"Error": "",
"StartedAt": "2020-04-07T06:56:19.940744112Z",
"FinishedAt": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z"
}
You can check container is running with either Status or Running:
cli = docker.APIClient()
inspect_dict = cli.inspect_container('festive_bell')
state = inspect_dict['State']
is_running = state['Status'] == 'running'
# or
is_running = state['Running'] == 'true'
if is_running:
print("My container is running!")
