batch-delete-image¶

Description¶

Deletes a list of specified images within a repository. Images are specified with either an imageTag or imageDigest .

You can remove a tag from an image by specifying the image’s tag in your request. When you remove the last tag from an image, the image is deleted from your repository.

You can completely delete an image (and all of its tags) by specifying the image’s digest in your request.

Synopsis¶

  batch-delete-image
[--registry-id <value>]
--repository-name <value>
--image-ids <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--registry-id (string)

The Amazon Web Services account ID associated with the registry that contains the image to delete. If you do not specify a registry, the default registry is assumed.

--repository-name (string)

The repository that contains the image to delete.

--image-ids (list)

A list of image ID references that correspond to images to delete. The format of the imageIds reference is imageTag=tag or imageDigest=digest .

(structure)

An object with identifying information for an image in an Amazon ECR repository.

imageDigest -> (string)

The sha256 digest of the image manifest.

imageTag -> (string)

The tag used for the image.

Shorthand Syntax:

imageDigest=string,imageTag=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "imageDigest": "string",
    "imageTag": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

Example 1: To delete an image

The following batch-delete-image example deletes an image with the tag precise in the specified repository in the default registry for an account.

aws ecr batch-delete-image \
    --repository-name ubuntu \
    --image-ids imageTag=precise

Output:

{
    "failures": [],
    "imageIds": [
        {
            "imageTag": "precise",
            "imageDigest": "sha256:19665f1e6d1e504117a1743c0a3d3753086354a38375961f2e665416ef4b1b2f"
        }
    ]
}

Example 2: To delete multiple images

The following batch-delete-image example deletes all images tagged with prod and team1 in the specified repository.

aws ecr batch-delete-image \
    --repository-name MyRepository \
    --image-ids imageTag=prod imageTag=team1

Output:

{
    "imageIds": [
        {
            "imageDigest": "sha256:123456789012",
            "imageTag": "prod"
        },
        {
            "imageDigest": "sha256:567890121234",
            "imageTag": "team1"
        }
    ],
    "failures": []
}
