💅 container-move — ok so you wanna rename a container

Hiii bestie, welcome to container-move from the General Commands Manual (section 1, we love a section 1). This is the little glow-up page for renaming your containers. No cap, that's literally all it does, but it does it so well. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

container-move — Rename a container 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

container move ['OPTIONS']
cnt mv ['OPTIONS']

Two ways in, same energy: the long way (container move) and the cute lil shortcut (cnt mv). Pick your fighter. 💖

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

The container move commands rename a container. That's the whole vibe. It's giving "I woke up and chose a new identity" and honestly? Slay. 👑

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

okay so here are all the container move options, every single one, no skipping:

  • -n, --new='NAME' — Specify new container name. This is the new name, the main character name, the one it's getting rebranded to. ✨
  • -f, --force — Do not prompt before moving. Just does it, no questions, no "are you sure bestie", zero hesitation. 💀
  • -o, --old — Specify old container name. Gotta tell it who it used to be before you give it the glow-up. 🪞

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Rename example.net container to example.org:

sudo container move -n example.org -o example.net

Rename example.net container to example.org without prompt:

sudo container move -n example.org -o example.net -f

See? Iconic. The -f one is for when you're confident and you don't need the app asking you twice. Ate. 💅
