delete all docker container and images on windows

docker-clear.bat

@echo off
FOR /f "tokens=*" %%i IN ('docker ps -aq') DO docker rm %%i
FOR /f "tokens=*" %%i IN ('docker images --format "{{.ID}}"') DO docker rmi %%i

Thanks!

I Would like contribute with a version in PowerShell:

foreach ($line in $(docker ps -a) ) {

    $line -match "^\w{12}"
    $container = docker inspect $Matches.Values | ConvertFrom-Json

    if ( $container.id ) {
        docker rm $Matches.Values
    }
}

Thank you!

Thx!!!

Powershell delete images
docker images -aq | foreach {docker rmi $_}

Thanks!

thank!

Thanks

docker images -aq | foreach {docker rmi -f $_}
Based on @mastroiannim suggestion, I added -f parameter to force image deletion

Thank you!!!

Super, thanks!!

This is pure GOLD. I and the rest of the world :) - THANK YOU !!!!!

docker rm $(docker ps -aq)

Doesn't work here was the result

C:\Users\Administrator>docker rm $(docker ps -aq)
unknown shorthand flag: 'a' in -aq)
See 'docker rm --help'.

pmutua, that doesn't work because it's only valid on Linux or from powershell. You're trying to run it from the Windows command line.

But here are two ways to get it to work:

• you can literally run that command by passing it TO powershell on the DOS cmd line: powershell "docker rm $(docker ps -aq)"
• or if running powershell at the cmd line strikes anyone as odd, we can do a variant of the longer command originally offered at the top of this gist, but we don't need to do it in a batch file. This would work: FOR /F %k in ('docker ps -aq') DO docker rm %k
