To stop and remove everything related to a Docker Compose setup (containers, networks, volumes, images, etc.), you can use the following command:
docker-compose down--rmi all--volumes--remove-orphans
Explanation:
down
: Stops and removes the containers, networks, and other resources created bydocker-compose up
.--rmi all
: Removes all images used by any service.--volumes
: Removes all named volumes declared in thevolumes
section of thedocker-compose.yml
file.--remove-orphans
: Removes any containers not defined in thedocker-compose.yml
file but are part of the same project.
This command will completely clean up everything related to the Docker Compose project.
