apptainer-cache-clean - Clean your local Apptainer cache
apptainer cache clean [clean options...]
This will clean your local cache (stored at $HOME/.apptainer/cache if
APPTAINER_CACHEDIR is not set). By default the entire cache is cleaned, use
--days and --type flags to override this behavior. Note: if you use Apptainer
as root, cache will be stored in ’/root/.apptainer/.cache’, to clean that
cache, you will need to run ’cache clean’ as root, or with ’sudo’.
-D, --days=0 |
remove all cache entries older than specified number of days |
||
-n, --dry-run[=false] |
operate in dry run mode and do not actually clean the cache |
||
-f, --force[=false] |
suppress any prompts and clean the cache |
||
-h, --help[=false] |
help for clean |
||
-T, --type=[all] |
a list of cache types to clean (possible values: library, oci, shub, blob, net, oras, all) |
All group commands have their own help output:
$ apptainer help cache clean --days 30
$ apptainer help cache clean --type=library,oci
$ apptainer cache clean --help
