File Access
Browse and manage files inside containers, images, and volumes.
Container Files
Select a container and open the Files tab to explore its filesystem.
The browser shows a tree view of the container's root filesystem. Navigate directories by clicking. File metadata (size, permissions, modification time) is displayed for each entry.
Operations
- View — click a file to preview its contents. Text files render inline. Binary files show metadata only.
- Download — right-click a file and select Download to copy it to your Mac.
- Upload — drag a file from Finder into the browser to copy it into the container.
CLI Equivalent
docker cp <container>:/path/to/file ./local-path
docker cp ./local-file <container>:/path/to/destinationVolume Files
Click a volume in the Volumes view to browse its contents. This works even when no container has the volume mounted.
Image Files
Click an image to inspect its layers. Each layer shows the files added, modified, or removed by that layer.
Performance
The file browser fetches directory listings on demand. Large directories load progressively. For bulk file operations or recursive copies, the CLI is faster.
