hey
Mounts section should show like below if anything attached
Mounts: [ { "Type": "volume", "Name": "c04f04a571d3e44ec6d6b5f89641f4f518a30c80916e026e8f18b7616165f2e8", "Source": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/c04f04a571d3e44ec6d6b5f89641f4f518a30c80916e026e8f18b7616165f2e8/_data", "Destination": "/data", "Driver": "local", "Mode": "", "RW": true, "Propagation": "" } ]

if not that means no volume is attached

The following snippet will tell you the IP of a container. Use the same logic to get details about the volume

docker inspect -f ‘{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}’ CONTAINER_NAME_OR_ID
