## NAME
|
|
podman\-rm - Remove one or more containers
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**podman rm** [*options*] *container*
|
|
|
|
**podman container rm** [*options*] *container*
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
**podman rm** will remove one or more containers from the host. The container name or ID can be used. This does not remove images.
|
|
Running or unusable containers will not be removed without the **-f** option.
|
|
|
|
## OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
#### **--all**, **-a**
|
|
|
|
Remove all containers. Can be used in conjunction with **-f** as well.
|
|
|
|
#### **--cidfile**
|
|
|
|
Read container ID from the specified file and remove the container. Can be specified multiple times.
|
|
|
|
#### **--depend**
|
|
|
|
Remove selected container and recursively remove all containers that depend on it.
|
|
|
|
#### **--force**, **-f**
|
|
|
|
Force the removal of running and paused containers. Forcing a container removal also
|
|
removes containers from container storage even if the container is not known to podman.
|
|
Containers could have been created by a different container engine.
|
|
In addition, forcing can be used to remove unusable containers, e.g. containers
|
|
whose OCI runtime has become unavailable.
|
|
|
|
#### **--ignore**, **-i**
|
|
|
|
Ignore errors when specified containers are not in the container store. A user
|
|
might have decided to manually remove a container which would lead to a failure
|
|
during the ExecStop directive of a systemd service referencing that container.
|
|
|
|
#### **--latest**, **-l**
|
|
|
|
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
|
|
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)
|
|
|
|
#### **--time**, **-t**=*seconds*
|
|
|
|
Seconds to wait before forcibly stopping the container. The --force option must be specified to use the --time option.
|
|
|
|
#### **--volumes**, **-v**
|
|
|
|
Remove anonymous volumes associated with the container. This does not include named volumes
|
|
created with **podman volume create**, or the **--volume** option of **podman run** and **podman create**.
|
|
|
|
## EXAMPLE
|
|
Remove a container by its name *mywebserver*
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm mywebserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove a *mywebserver* container and all of the containers that depend on it
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm --depend mywebserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove several containers by name and container id.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm mywebserver myflaskserver 860a4b23
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove several containers reading their IDs from files.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm --cidfile ./cidfile-1 --cidfile /home/user/cidfile-2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Forcibly remove a container by container ID.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm -f 860a4b23
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove all containers regardless of its run state.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm -f -a
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Forcibly remove the latest container created.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman rm -f --latest
|
|
```
