I use this script to quickly clean my docker environment as needed. See script comments for an explanation. I usually add this script as a file to ~/bin/docker-reset , and add `alias dr='docker-reset'` to my ~/.bashrc

docker-reset

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Purpose: reset docker environment
# Argument (optional): all | networks
#
# "docker-reset" will kill and remove all containers (except dinghy-http-proxy),
# dangling images, and volumes. It won't remove networks.
#
# "docker-reset all" will kill and remove all containers (including
# dinghy-http-proxy) and remove all networks, too.
#
# "docker-reset networks" will remove all networks.
#
# Prerequisite: you'll need to install docker-clean: brew install docker-clean
#
# To use dinghy-http-proxy with docker for mac, follow these instructions:
#   https://github.com/codekitchen/dinghy-http-proxy#using-outside-of-dinghy

# Kill and remove all docker containers (except for dinghy-http-proxy)
function docker-kill-all-except-dinghy-http-proxy() {
  PROXY=$(docker ps | grep dinghy-http-proxy | awk '{print $1}')
  echo "Killing docker containers..."
  docker kill $(docker ps -q | grep -v $PROXY) &> /dev/null
  echo "Removing docker containers..."
  docker rm $(docker ps -a --filter "status=exited" -q) &> /dev/null
}

# Kill and remove all docker containers
function docker-kill-all() {
  echo "Killing and removing docker containers..."
  docker rm -fv $(docker ps -a -q) &> /dev/null
}

# Stop and remove all docker containers (except for dinghy-http-proxy)
function docker-stop-all() {
  PROXY=$(docker ps | grep dinghy-http-proxy | awk '{print $1}')
  echo "Stopping docker containers..."
  docker stop $(docker ps -q | grep -v $PROXY) &> /dev/null
  echo "Removing docker containers..."
  docker rm $(docker ps -a --filter "status=exited" -q) &> /dev/null
}
