$ curl --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock "http://localhost/v{{% param "latest_engine_api_version" %}}/containers/1c6594faf5/logs?stdout=1"
hello world
```

When using cURL to connect over a Unix socket, the hostname is not important. The previous
examples use `localhost`, but any hostname would work.

> [!IMPORTANT]
>
> The previous examples assume you're using cURL 7.50.0 or above. Older versions of
> cURL used a [non-standard URL notation](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/17960)
> when using a socket connection.
>
> If you're' using an older version of cURL, use `http:/<API version>/` instead,
> for example: `http:/v{{% param "latest_engine_api_version" %}}/containers/1c6594faf5/start`.

## Unofficial libraries

There are a number of community supported libraries available for other
languages. They haven't been tested by Docker, so if you run into any issues,
file them with the library maintainers.
