docker compose rm

Removes stopped service containers

By default, anonymous volumes attached to containers will not be removed. You can override this with -v. To list all volumes, use "docker volume ls".

Any data which is not in a volume will be lost.

Options

Name Type Default Description
--dry-run Execute command in dry run mode
-f, --force Don't ask to confirm removal
-s, --stop Stop the containers, if required, before removing
-v, --volumes Remove any anonymous volumes attached to containers

Description

Removes stopped service containers.

By default, anonymous volumes attached to containers are not removed. You can override this with -v. To list all volumes, use docker volume ls.

Any data which is not in a volume is lost.

Running the command with no options also removes one-off containers created by docker compose run:
