Attach a console to a container

Usage

container console ['OPTIONS']

Overview

The container console command attaches a console to a container.

Options

The following container console options are available:

-n, --name='NAME':

Specify container name.

Examples

Attach console to example.net container:

sudo container console -n example.net
