.nh .TH podman-kube-down 1 .SH NAME .PP podman-kube-down - Remove containers and pods based on Kubernetes YAML .SH SYNOPSIS .PP \fBpodman kube down\fP [\fIoptions\fP] \fIfile.yml|-|https://website.io/file.yml\fP .SH DESCRIPTION .PP \fBpodman kube down\fP reads a specified Kubernetes YAML file, tearing down pods that were created by the \fBpodman kube play\fR command via the same Kubernetes YAML file. Any volumes that were created by the previous \fBpodman kube play\fR command remain intact unless the \fB--force\fR options is used. If the YAML file is specified as \fB-\fR, \fBpodman kube down\fR 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. \fBpodman kube down\fR tears down the pods and containers created by \fBpodman kube play\fR via the same Kubernetes YAML from the URL. However, \fBpodman kube down\fR 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 \fBpodman kube play\fR\&. .SH OPTIONS .SS \fB--force\fP .PP Tear down the volumes linked to the PersistentVolumeClaims as part --down .SH EXAMPLES .PP Example YAML file \fBdemo.yml\fR: .EX apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: \&... spec: containers: - command: - top - name: container value: podman image: foobar \&... .EE .PP Remove the pod and containers as described in the \fBdemo.yml\fR file .EX $ podman kube down demo.yml Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 .EE .PP Remove the pod and containers as described in the \fBdemo.yml\fR file YAML sent to stdin .EX $ cat demo.yml | podman kube play - Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 .EE .PP Remove the pods and containers as described in the \fBdemo.yml\fR file YAML read from a URL .EX $ podman kube down https://podman.io/demo.yml Pods stopped: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 Pods removed: 52182811df2b1e73f36476003a66ec872101ea59034ac0d4d3a7b40903b955a6 .EE .PP \fBpodman kube down\fR 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. .SH SEE ALSO .PP \fBpodman(1)\fP, \fBpodman-kube(1)\fP, \fBpodman-kube-play(1)\fP, \fBpodman-kube-generate(1)\fP, \fBcontainers-certs.d(5)\fP
