podman-kube-down(1) General Commands Manual podman-kube-down(1) NAME podman-kube-down - Remove containers and pods based on Kubernetes YAML SYNOPSIS podman kube down [options] file.yml|-|https://website.io/file.yml DESCRIPTION podman kube down reads a specified Kubernetes YAML file, tearing down pods that were created by the podman kube play command via the same Kubernetes YAML file. Any volumes that were created by the previous podman kube play command remain intact unless the --force options is used. If the YAML file is specified as -, podman kube down reads the YAML from stdin. The input can also be a URL that points to a YAML file such as https://podman.io/demo.yml. podman kube down tears down the pods and containers created by podman kube play via the same Kubernetes YAML from the URL. However, podman kube down does not work with a URL if the YAML file the URL points to has been changed or altered since the creation of the pods and containers using podman kube play. OPTIONS --force Tear down the volumes linked to the PersistentVolumeClaims as part --down EXAMPLES Example YAML file demo.yml: apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: spec: containers: - command: - top - name: container value: podman image: foobar Remove the pod and containers as described in the demo.yml file $ podman kube down demo.yml Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Remove the pod and containers as described in the demo.yml file YAML sent to stdin $ cat demo.yml | podman kube play - Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Remove the pods and containers as described in the demo.yml file YAML read from a URL $ podman kube down https://podman.io/demo.yml Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 podman kube down does not work with a URL if the YAML file the URL points to has been changed or altered since it was used to create the pods and containers.
