Remove dangling docker images

gistfile1.txt

docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true)

docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true)
Doesn't work in Windows cmd

This works for Windows cmd:
FOR /f "tokens=*" %i IN ('docker images -q -f "dangling=true"') DO docker rmi %i

If you have PowerShell you can use this:
docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true)

Using this for any linux/osx system:

if docker images -f "dangling=true" | grep ago --quiet; then
    docker rmi -f $(docker images -f "dangling=true" -q)
fi

You do that easier:

docker image prune

@MBlagui, bravo!

@MBlagui you're my hero for this

docker container prune works well too, thanks!

docker container prune ; docker images prune

The docs say docker prune "removes all dangling images". And it even issues a warning "this will remove all dangling images". So why does it not remove mine?

ubuntu@ip-172-31-26-48:~$ docker image prune

@simonm3 you probably want to run docker container prune - otherwise docker still thinks they are being run by a stopped container

docker rmi -f $(docker images --quiet --filter "dangling=true")

nice jobs

Some images can't be removed without -f option

docker images --quiet --filter=dangling=true | xargs --no-run-if-empty docker rmi -f

This works perfect, does the job
