Document how multiple --filter flags interact in prune commands: different filter keys are ANDed (all conditions must match), while multiple values for the same key are ORed (any value can match). This addresses a gap in the documentation where users could not determine whether multiple filters were combined with AND or OR logic, which is especially important for prune commands where the wrong assumption could lead to unintended data removal.

|
||
By default, volumes aren't removed to prevent important data from being
|
||
deleted if there is currently no container using the volume. Use the `--volumes`
|
||
flag when running the command to prune anonymous volumes as well:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ docker system prune -a --volumes
|
||
|
||
WARNING! This will remove:
|
||
- all stopped containers
|
||
- all networks not used by at least one container
|
||
- all anonymous volumes not used by at least one container
|
||
- all images without at least one container associated to them
|
||
- all build cache

### <a name="filter"></a> Filtering (--filter)
|
||
|
||
The filtering flag (`--filter`) format is of "key=value". If there is more
|
||
than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., `--filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"`).
|
||
|
||
When multiple filters are provided, they are combined as follows:
|
||
|
||
- Multiple filters with **different keys** are combined using AND logic.
|
||
An item must satisfy all filter conditions to be pruned.
|
||
- Multiple filters with the **same key** are combined using OR logic.
|
||
An item is pruned if it matches any of the values for that key.
|
||
|
||
For example, `--filter "label=foo" --filter "until=24h"` prunes items
|
||
that have the `foo` label **and** were created more than 24 hours ago.
|
||
Conversely, `--filter "label=foo" --filter "label=bar"` prunes items
|
||
that have **either** the `foo` **or** `bar` label.
|
||
|
||
The currently supported filters are:
|
||
|
||
* until (`<timestamp>`) - only remove containers, images, and networks created before given timestamp
|
||
* label (`label=<key>`, `label=<key>=<value>`, `label!=<key>`, or `label!=<key>=<value>`) - only remove containers, images, networks, and volumes with (or without, in case `label!=...` is used) the specified labels.
|
||
|
||
The `until` filter can be Unix timestamps, date formatted
|
||
timestamps, or Go duration strings supported by [ParseDuration](https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration) (e.g. `10m`, `1h30m`) computed
|
||
relative to the daemon machine’s time. Supported formats for date
|
||
formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano, RFC3339, `2006-01-02T15:04:05`,
|
||
`2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999`, `2006-01-02T07:00`, and `2006-01-02`. The local
|
||
timezone on the daemon will be used if you do not provide either a `Z` or a
|
||
`+-00:00` timezone offset at the end of the timestamp. When providing Unix
|
||
timestamps enter seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds
|
||
that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap
|
||
seconds (aka Unix epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a
|
||
fraction of a second no more than nine digits long.
|
||
|
||
The `label` filter accepts two formats. One is the `label=...` (`label=<key>` or `label=<key>=<value>`),
|
||
which removes containers, images, networks, and volumes with the specified labels. The other
|
||
format is the `label!=...` (`label!=<key>` or `label!=<key>=<value>`), which removes
|
||
containers, images, networks, and volumes without the specified labels.
