Any way to check wether an exec_run has finished?

[Pymann]

you know its possible to receive a generator from an exec-run. I can print the stream if there is any next item... but when to end, how could I ever know, wether an exec-run has finished?

this might work, using exec_inspect from low-level API

import docker

client = docker.from_env()

# Start the exec instance
exec_instance = client.containers.get('my_container').exec_run('ls')

# Check the status of the exec instance
exec_status = client.api.exec_inspect(exec_instance.id).get('Running')

if exec_status:
    print('Exec instance is still running')
else:
    print('Exec instance has finished')

It could be useful.

import docker
 succeed_info = (
        docker.from_env()
        .containers.get("container")
        .exec_run("some command")
        .exit_code
    )

  if succeed_info != 0:
      raise Exception("Error")
