aws-ecr: Delete a repository.
$ aws ecr delete-repository --repository-name ${repository} --force
try on your machine
This command is used to delete an ECR (Elastic Container Registry) repository in AWS (Amazon Web Services).
Here's a breakdown of the command:
aws
: This command is part of the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), which is a unified tool to manage various AWS services from the command line.ecr
: This is a sub-command specifically for interacting with the Elastic Container Registry service.delete-repository
: This is the sub-command used to delete a repository.--repository-name ${repository}
: This flag specifies the name of the repository that you want to delete. The${repository}
is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the repository you want to delete.--force
: This flag is used to force the deletion of the repository, even if it contains images. By default, AWS ECR allows deletion only if the repository is empty. The--force
flag bypasses this restriction.
In summary, this command deletes an AWS ECR repository with the specified name, including any images it may contain, and the --force
flag ensures that the repository is deleted even if it is not empty.
