IntelliJ IDEA 2022.3 Help

Docker console settings

Configure the output of the Docker container logs. IntelliJ IDEA can show the log messages from the container's standart output streams in the Log tab when you select the container in the Services tool window (View | Tool Windows | Services or Alt+8). For more information, see Container dashboard.

Enable the Docker plugin

This functionality relies on the Docker plugin, which is bundled and enabled in IntelliJ IDEA by default. If the relevant features are not available, make sure that you did not disable the plugin.

  1. Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings and select Plugins.

  2. Open the Installed tab, find the Docker plugin, and select the checkbox next to the plugin name.

Fold previous sessions in the Log console

IntelliJ IDEA saves the console output of all container sessions. Select this option to fold output from previous sessions, leaving only the latest session's log expanded.

Show dashboard header in the Log console

Use the dashboard with the name and hash ID of the container in the Log tab. For more information, see Container dashboard.
