rmi
The rmi
command removes images from the local registry.
<options> available:
-a, --all Remove all images from the local machine or all matching images if argument is specified
--all-users Applies command to images stored in all users folder
-f, --force Attempts to stop running images
--format=VALUE Use the specified format for output. Supported values: json
Use the -a
flag to remove all images at one time. Note that this operation cannot be undone.
# Remove an image by specifying it by name
> turbo rmi my-image
Image my-image was removed
# Remove all images with the -a flag
> turbo rmi -a

If the same image is forked or tagged multiple times then the rmi
command will only untag the specified name, not remove the image itself.
