NAME

podman-images - List images in local storage

SYNOPSIS

podman images [options]

podman image list [options]

podman image ls [options]

DESCRIPTION

Displays locally stored images, their names, and their IDs.

OPTIONS

–all, -a

Show all images (by default filter out the intermediate image layers). The default is false.

–digests

Show image digests

–filter=filter, -f

Filter output based on conditions provided

Filters:

since=IMAGE Filter on images created after the given IMAGE (name or tag).

before=IMAGE Filter on images created before the given IMAGE (name or tag).

dangling=true|false Show dangling images. Dangling images are a file system layer that was used in a previous build of an image and is no longer referenced by any active images. They are denoted with the tag, consume disk space and serve no active purpose.

label Filter by images labels key and/or value.

readonly=true|false Show only read only images or Read/Write images. The default is to show both. Read/Only images can be configured by modifying the “additionalimagestores” in the /etc/containers/storage.conf file.

reference= Filter by image name, specified as regular expressions.

–format=format

Change the default output format. This can be of a supported type like ‘json’ or a Go template. Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

Placeholder Description
.ID Image ID
.Repository Image repository
.Tag Image tag
.Digest Image digest
.CreatedSince Elapsed time since the image was created
.CreatedAt Time when the image was created
.Size Size of layer on disk
.History History of the image layer

–history

Display the history of image names. If an image gets re-tagged or untagged, then the image name history gets prepended (latest image first). This is especially useful when undoing a tag operation or an image does not contain any name because it has been untagged.

–noheading, -n

Omit the table headings from the listing of images.

–no-trunc

Do not truncate output.

–quiet, -q

Lists only the image IDs.

–sort=sort

Sort by created, id, repository, size or tag (default: created)
