How do you cleanly undeploy an app?

[fcarriedo]

What would be best way to cleanly and completely remove a deployed app (image)?

Would it be?:

$ docker rm <container>
$ docker rmi <image>
$ rm -rf ~/dokku/<app>

Thanks!

That's what I've been doing. Make sure you remove all the images with no
tags as well, as they are previous deploys that docker doesn't
automatically remove.

@Kyso Nice to know. I didn't want to remove them since wasn't sure there were being used for something else.

It also seems to me that the described process would do it, but is it the correct/official way to do it?

That's basically correct. It'll be official when there is a command to do it, but right now I think tests are higher priority. So that's good for now.

docker rmi id is sufficient.

Perfect. Thanks!

I believe that

dokku cleanup

Is now the command. See this issue #793

[michaelshobbs]

This is documented. Why are we commenting on 2+ year old closed issues?

[lastmjs]

I didn't see it listed in the output of the dokku help command; I had a hard time finding out that this command exists. Where is it documented?

[michaelshobbs]

dokku apps:destroy <app> is the preferred method. You can either run man dokku or dokku --help to see the following

    apps:destroy <app>                                                 Permanently destroy an app
