% podman-mount(1)

## NAME
podman\-mount - Mount a working container's root filesystem

## SYNOPSIS
**podman mount** [*container* ...]

**podman container mount** [*container* ...]

## DESCRIPTION
Mounts the specified containers' root file system in a location which can be
accessed from the host, and returns its location.

If you execute the command without any arguments, the tool will list all of the
currently mounted containers.

## RETURN VALUE
The location of the mounted file system.  On error an empty string and errno is
returned.

## OPTIONS

**--all**, **a**

Mount all containers.

**--format**=*format*

Print the mounted containers in specified format (json)

**--latest**, **-l**

Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container.
If you use methods other than Podman to run containers such as CRI-O, the last
started container could be from either of those methods.

The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

**--notruncate**

Do not truncate IDs in output.
