toolbox-rmi: Remove a `toolbox` image.
$ toolbox rmi ${image_name}
try on your machine

The command "toolbox rmi ${image_name}" is used to remove or delete a Docker image from a Docker environment or registry.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "toolbox": It refers to the name of a command-line tool or utility that provides an isolated environment for running commands, managing containers, and accessing container images. This could vary depending on the specific context or environment you're working in. It might also be replaced with "docker" if you are using the Docker command-line interface directly.

  • "rmi": It is an abbreviation for "remove image" and indicates that you want to delete a Docker image.

  • "${image_name}": It is a placeholder or variable representing the name or identifier of the Docker image you want to remove. The variable should be replaced with the actual name or tag of the image you intend to delete. For example, if your image name is "my_image", the command would become "toolbox rmi my_image".

This command effectively deletes the specified Docker image from your environment. Be cautious while using it, as the image cannot be recovered once it is removed.
