10 podman image prune [options]
11
12
14 podman image prune removes all dangling images from local storage. With
15 the all option, you can delete all unused images. Unused images are
16 dangling images as well as any image that does not have any containers
17 based on it.
18
19
20 The image prune command does not prune cache images that only use lay‐
21 ers that are necessary for other images.
22
23
25 --all, -a
26 Remove dangling images and images that have no associated containers.
27
28
29 --filter=filters
30 Provide filter values.
31
32
33 The --filter flag format is of “key=value”. If there is more than one
34 filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., --filter "foo=bar" --filter
35 "bif=baz")
36
37
38 Supported filters:
39
40
41 · until (timestamp) - only remove containers and images created
42 before given timestamp
43
44 · label (label=key, label=key=value, label!=key, or
45 label!=key=value) - only remove containers and images, with
46 (or without, in case label!=... is used) the specified labels.
47
48
49
50 The until filter can be Unix timestamps, date formatted timestamps, or
51 Go duration strings (e.g. 10m, 1h30m) computed relative to the
52 machine’s time.
53
54
55 The label filter accepts two formats. One is the label=... (label=key
56 or label=key=value), which removes images with the specified labels.
57 The other format is the label!=... (label!=key or label!=key=value),
58 which removes images without the specified labels.
59
60
61 --force, -f
62 Do not provide an interactive prompt for container removal.
