     4  # NAME
     5  docker-images - List images
     6  
     7  # SYNOPSIS
     8  **docker images**
     9  [**--help**]
    10  [**-a**|**--all**[=*false*]]
    11  [**-f**|**--filter**[=*[]*]]
    12  [**--no-trunc**[=*false*]]
    13  [**-q**|**--quiet**[=*false*]]
    14  [REPOSITORY]
    15  
    16  # DESCRIPTION
    17  This command lists the images stored in the local Docker repository.
    18  
    19  By default, intermediate images, used during builds, are not listed. Some of the
    20  output, e.g., image ID, is truncated, for space reasons. However the truncated
    21  image ID, and often the first few characters, are enough to be used in other
    22  Docker commands that use the image ID. The output includes repository, tag, image
    23  ID, date created and the virtual size.
    24  
    25  The title REPOSITORY for the first title may seem confusing. It is essentially
    26  the image name. However, because you can tag a specific image, and multiple tags
    27  (image instances) can be associated with a single name, the name is really a
    28  repository for all tagged images of the same name. For example consider an image
    29  called fedora. It may be tagged with 18, 19, or 20, etc. to manage different
    30  versions.
    31  
    32  # OPTIONS
    33  **-a**, **--all**=*true*|*false*
    34     Show all images (by default filter out the intermediate image layers). The default is *false*.
    35  
    36  **-f**, **--filter**=[]
    37     Provide filter values (i.e., 'dangling=true')
    38  
    39  **--help**
    40    Print usage statement
    41  
    42  **--no-trunc**=*true*|*false*
    43     Don't truncate output. The default is *false*.
    44  
    45  **-q**, **--quiet**=*true*|*false*
    46     Only show numeric IDs. The default is *false*.
    47  
    48  # EXAMPLES
    49  
    50  ## Listing the images
    51  
    52  To list the images in a local repository (not the registry) run:
    53  
    54      docker images
    55  
    56  The list will contain the image repository name, a tag for the image, and an
    57  image ID, when it was created and its virtual size. Columns: REPOSITORY, TAG,
    58  IMAGE ID, CREATED, and VIRTUAL SIZE.
    59  
    60  To get a verbose list of images which contains all the intermediate images
    61  used in builds use **-a**:
    62  
    63      docker images -a
    64  
    65  ## Listing only the shortened image IDs
    66  
    67  Listing just the shortened image IDs. This can be useful for some automated
    68  tools.
    69  
    70      docker images -q
