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