Built-in Terminal
Open a container shell directly from Dockerman
Overview
Dockerman includes a built-in terminal that opens a shell inside any running container without leaving the app.
Opening a Terminal
- Open a running container
- Click the Terminal tab or button
- A terminal session opens inside the container
Shell Selection
Dockerman tries to detect an available shell:
/bin/bash— used by default when available/bin/sh— fallback for minimal containers
You can also specify a custom shell command when opening the terminal.
Terminal Features
- Full interactive terminal with keyboard input
- Copy and paste support
- Scrollback buffer for reviewing earlier output
- Multiple terminal sessions per container
Closing the Terminal
Close the terminal tab to end the session. The terminal process inside the container is terminated on disconnect.
