Install dockviz.  Either:\n  * Download the [latest release](https://github.com/justone/dockviz/releases).\n  * Set up an alias to run it from the (5.8 MB) docker image:\n\n```\n# if docker client using local unix socket\nalias dockviz=\"docker run -it --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock nate/dockviz\"\n\n# if docker client using tcp\nalias dockviz=\"docker run -it --rm -e DOCKER_HOST=\u0027tcp://127.0.0.1:2375\u0027 nate/dockviz\"\n\n```\n\n2. Visualize images by running `dockviz images -t`, which has similar output to `docker images -t`.\n  * Image can be visualized as [Graphviz](http://www.graphviz.org), or as a tree or short summary in the terminal.  Only Graphviz output has been implemented for containers.\n  * If you would like to visualize outside the container you will have to install [Graphviz](http://www.graphviz.org) first.\n\n```\napt-get update \u0026\u0026 apt-get install graphviz\n```\n\nor\n\n```\nbrew update \u0026\u0026 brew install graphviz\n```\n\n# Output Examples\n\n## Containers\n\nCurrently, containers are visualized with labelled lines for links.  Containers that aren\u0027t running are greyed out.\n\n```\n# show all containers\n$ dockviz containers -d | dot -Tpng -o containers.png\n\n# only show running containers\n$ dockviz containers -d -r | dot -Tpng -o containers.png\n```\n\n![](sample/containers.png \"Container\")\n\n## Images\n\nImage info is visualized with lines indicating parent images:\n\n```\n$ dockviz images -d | dot -Tpng -o images.png\n```\n\n![](sample/images.png \"Image\")\n\n```\n$ dockviz images -d -l | dot -Tpng -o images.png\nOR\n$ dockviz images --dot --only-labelled | dot -Tpng -o images.png\n```\n\n![](sample/images_only_labelled.png \"Image\")\n\nOr as a treemap:\n\n```\n$ dockviz images -d | patchwork -Tpng -o treemap.png\nOR\n$ dockviz images --dot | ",
