| Description | Print the logs of a build record | | Usage | docker buildx history logs [OPTIONS] [REF] |

Description ​

Print the logs for a completed build. The output appears in the same format as --progress=plain, showing the full logs for each step.

By default, this shows logs for the most recent build on the current builder.

You can also specify an earlier build using an offset. For example:

  • ^1 shows logs for the build before the most recent
  • ^2 shows logs for the build two steps back

Options ​

OptionDefaultDescription
--progressplainSet type of progress output (plain, rawjson, tty)

Examples ​

console
$ docker buildx history logs
#1 [internal] load build definition from Dockerfile
#1 transferring dockerfile: 31B done
#1 DONE 0.0s
#2 [internal] load .dockerignore
#2 transferring context: 2B done
#2 DONE 0.0s
...

By default, this shows logs for the most recent build on the current builder.

To print logs for a specific build, use a build ID or offset:

console
# Using a build ID
docker buildx history logs qu2gsuo8ejqrwdfii23xkkckt

# Or using a relative offset
docker buildx history logs ^1

Set type of progress output (--progress) ​

console
$ docker buildx history logs ^1 --progress rawjson
