reader, _ := cli.ContainerLogs(context.Background(), containerID, types.ContainerLogsOptions{
		ShowStdout: true,
		Follow:     true,
})
defer reader.Close()

//read the first 8 bytes to ignore the HEADER part from docker container logs
p := make([]byte, 8)
reader.Read(p)
content, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(reader)

var codeOutput MyJSONStruct
if err := json.NewDecoder(strings.NewReader(string(content))).Decode(&codeOutput); err != nil {
  //handle error
}
//set some other value in struct
codeOutput.ContainerID = containerID

Can you also share the struct of MyJSONStruct? Or maybe I missinterpret the code...
