💖 CONTAINER-REMOVE(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for container-remove — it lives in the General Commands Manual section, and yes we are absolutely going to read the whole thing together, no skimming, i got you 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

container-remove — remove a container. that's it. that's the job. bye bye container 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

container remove ['OPTIONS']
cnt rm ['OPTIONS']

two ways in, same energy: the long version and the little cnt rm glow-up. pick your fighter 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The container remove command removes a container. like, literally that. it removes it. iconic behaviour, no notes 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

here are the container remove options, all of them, nothing skipped, periodt:

  • -n, --name='NAME' — specify the container name. and here's the tea: if you put 'ALL' in there, it removes all stopped container. yes, all of them. say it with your chest 🗣️
  • --allow-stop — stop the container prior to removal. so it's not just yeeted while running, it gets a lil nap first 😴
  • -f, --force — do not prompt before removal. no "are you sure?", no second thoughts, just vibes and action 💀
  • -v, --verbose — explain what is being done. like a friend narrating your life choices back to you 🍓

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

remove the example.net container from the system:

sudo container remove -n example.net

remove example.net container from the system without prompt:

sudo container remove -n example.net -f

remove a running container from the system, without prompt:

sudo container remove -n example.net -f --allow-stop

remove all container:

sudo container remove -n ALL
