docker: List images that contain a substring in their name.

docker

$ docker images "${*name*}"

try on your machine

The command "docker images" retrieves a list of all the Docker images that are currently available on your local machine. The "${name}" part is used as a parameter to filter the list of images based on a specific name or part of a name.

For example, if you want to search for an image with the name "ubuntu", you would run the command "docker images ubuntu". This command will display all the Docker images that have the name "ubuntu" in their repository or tag.

The "${name}" syntax is often used in command-line interfaces, such as Bash, to represent a variable value. In this case, it indicates that you need to replace "${name}" with the desired image name you want to search for.

By running the command with a specific image name or part of a name, you can quickly filter and retrieve information about specific Docker images from your local machine's image repository.
