     4  # NAME
     5  docker-images - List images
     6  
     7  # SYNOPSIS
     8  **docker images**
     9  [**--help**]
    10  [**-a**|**--all**[=*false*]]
    11  [**--digests**[=*false*]]
    12  [**-f**|**--filter**[=*[]*]]
    13  [**--no-trunc**[=*false*]]
    14  [**-q**|**--quiet**[=*false*]]
    15  [REPOSITORY[:TAG]]
    16  
    17  # DESCRIPTION
    18  This command lists the images stored in the local Docker repository.
    19  
    20  By default, intermediate images, used during builds, are not listed. Some of the
    21  output, e.g., image ID, is truncated, for space reasons. However the truncated
    22  image ID, and often the first few characters, are enough to be used in other
    23  Docker commands that use the image ID. The output includes repository, tag, image
    24  ID, date created and the virtual size.
    25  
    26  The title REPOSITORY for the first title may seem confusing. It is essentially
    27  the image name. However, because you can tag a specific image, and multiple tags
    28  (image instances) can be associated with a single name, the name is really a
    29  repository for all tagged images of the same name. For example consider an image
    30  called fedora. It may be tagged with 18, 19, or 20, etc. to manage different
    31  versions.
    32  
    33  # OPTIONS
    34  **-a**, **--all**=*true*|*false*
    35     Show all images (by default filter out the intermediate image layers). The default is *false*.
    36  
    37  **--digests**=*true*|*false*
    38     Show image digests. The default is *false*.
    39  
    40  **-f**, **--filter**=[]
    41     Filters the output. The dangling=true filter finds unused images. While label=com.foo=amd64 filters for images with a com.foo value of amd64. The label=com.foo filter finds images with the label com.foo of any value.
    42  
    43  **--help**
    44    Print usage statement
    45  
    46  **--no-trunc**=*true*|*false*
    47     Don't truncate output. The default is *false*.
    48  
    49  **-q**, **--quiet**=*true*|*false*
    50     Only show numeric IDs. The default is *false*.
    51  
    52  # EXAMPLES
    53  
    54  ## Listing the images
    55  
    56  To list the images in a local repository (not the registry) run:
    57  
    58      docker images
    59  
    60  The list will contain the image repository name, a tag for the image, and an
    61  image ID, when it was created and its virtual size. Columns: REPOSITORY, TAG,
    62  IMAGE ID, CREATED, and VIRTUAL SIZE.
    63  
    64  The `docker images` command takes an optional `[REPOSITORY[:TAG]]` argument
    65  that restricts the list to images that match the argument. If you specify
    66  `REPOSITORY`but no `TAG`, the `docker images` command lists all images in the
    67  given repository.
    68  
    69      docker images java
    70  
    71  The `[REPOSITORY[:TAG]]` value must be an "exact match". This means that, for example,
    72  `docker images jav` does not match the image `java`.
    73  
    74  If both `REPOSITORY` and `TAG` are provided, only images matching that
    75  repository and tag are listed.  To find all local images in the "java"
    76  repository with tag "8" you can use:
    77  
    78      docker images java:8
    79  
    80  To get a verbose list of images which contains all the intermediate images
    81  used in builds use **-a**:
    82  
    83      docker images -a
    84  
    85  Previously, the docker images command supported the --tree and --dot arguments,
    86  which displayed different visualizations of the image data. Docker core removed
    87  this functionality in the 1.7 version. If you liked this functionality, you can
    88  still find it in the third-party dockviz tool: https://github.com/justone/dockviz.
    89  
    90  ## Listing only the shortened image IDs
    91  
    92  Listing just the shortened image IDs. This can be useful for some automated
    93  tools.
    94  
    95      docker images -q
