Docker Commands copy, remove images.

#docker #remove #copy #list

View existing images

docker images
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

My output shows like this:

REPOSITORY   TAG       IMAGE ID       CREATED       SIZE
ubuntu       latest    78klio18m   2 weeks ago   77.9MB
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

**
Rename existing image:**

docker tag <source_name>:<source_tag> <target_name>:<target_tag>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

example:

docker tag ubuntu:latest rasa:chatbot
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Replace the placeholders:
: The current name of the image.
: The current tag of the image.
: The new name you want to assign to the image.
: (Optional) The new tag you want to assign to the image (if applicable).

Delete existing image


docker rmi ubuntu
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

finally

docker images
REPOSITORY   TAG       IMAGE ID       CREATED       SIZE
rasa         chatbot   ca8b0f1234c   2 weeks ago   77.9MB
