Container table — columns

Column	Meaning
Name	Primary container name (from Docker). Opens the row menu when clicked. Shows Orphan / Compose badges when applicable.
Status	Running / exited / paused (and transient lifecycle states during operations).
Image	Image reference string from Docker.
IP	Primary container IP from Docker network settings (first useful IPAddress).
Ports	Published / template port summary.
Uptime	Derived from Docker status text when available.
Created	Human-readable age from container created timestamp.
Auto start	Toggle for Unraid autostart entries (GraphQL mutation).
Updates	Repository update / rebuild hints when Unraid exposes them.
Actions	Start, stop, restart, pause, resume, update (opens progress window), delete, logs.

Row menu (click container name)

Item	Behavior
Open Web UI	Shown when the template exposes a Web UI URL. [IP] placeholders are replaced with the container’s Docker IP. Only http(s) and safe same-origin paths are used as href.
Edit…	Navigates the top window to Unraid’s /Docker/UpdateContainer with xmlTemplate=edit:… when a template path exists (not for pure compose orphans).
> Shell	When the container is running, calls Unraid’s openTerminal on window.top with the container name and a sanitized shell (default bash). Requires running inside the Unraid UI.
Details	Expands a details pane below the row.
Compose workspace…	Opens the modal for the selected compose project when compose labels are present (see Compose workspace).

Details pane

When expanded, the row shows:

• Volume mappings — host → container paths (read-only display + copy).
• Networks, LAN & ports — per-network IPs, lanIpPorts from Unraid when present, and port mapping text.
• Docker Compose — Parsed com.docker.compose.* labels (project, service, config files, working dir).
• Links — Project / Support / Registry URLs from template metadata (sanitized before use).

Filters and search

• Search — Substring match across name, image, status, IP, ports, uptime, age, and compose metadata.
• Updates only — Narrows to containers with a pending update signal.
• Compose only — Shows containers that carry Docker Compose v2 labels (com.docker.compose.project, etc.).

Template icons

Icons come from, in order:

1. GraphQL iconUrl when present.
2. Docker labels net.unraid.docker.icon or org.unraid.docker.icon.
3. Font Awesome / icon-* class strings when the value is not a URL/path.
4. Otherwise a generic Docker-style fallback glyph.

Image URLs are normalized (e.g. /usr/local/emhttp/… → web path) and sanitized to block javascript: and protocol-relative // tricks.

Global actions (header)

Typical patterns include:

• Update all — Opens the update progress window (see Logs and updates).
• Compose workspace — Can be opened from the header when wired in the build you use.

Exact buttons may evolve; always read tooltips in the UI for the current behavior.
