## NAME
skopeo\-delete - Mark the _image-name_ for later deletion by the registry's garbage collector.
## SYNOPSIS
**skopeo delete** [*options*] _image-name_
Mark _image-name_ for deletion. To release the allocated disk space, you must login to the container registry server and execute the container registry garbage collector. E.g.,
```
/usr/bin/registry garbage-collect /etc/docker-distribution/registry/config.yml
Note: sometimes the config.yml is stored in /etc/docker/registry/config.yml
If you are running the container registry inside of a container you would execute something like:
$ docker exec -it registry /usr/bin/registry garbage-collect /etc/docker-distribution/registry/config.yml
```
## OPTIONS
**--authfile** _path_
Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using `skopeo login`.
If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using `docker login`.
**--creds** _username[:password]_
Credentials for accessing the registry.
**--cert-dir** _path_
Use certificates at _path_ (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the registry.
**--daemon-host** _host_
Use docker daemon host at _host_ (`docker-daemon:` transport only)
**--help**, **-h**
Print usage statement
**--no-creds** _bool-value_
Access the registry anonymously.
Additionally, the registry must allow deletions by setting `REGISTRY_STORAGE_DELETE_ENABLED=true` for the registry daemon.
**--registry-token** _token_
Bearer token for accessing the registry.
**--retry-times**
The number of times to retry. Retry wait time will be exponentially increased based on the number of failed attempts.
**--shared-blob-dir** _directory_
Directory to use to share blobs across OCI repositories.
**--tls-verify**=_bool_
Require HTTPS and verify certificates when talking to the container registry or daemon. Default to registry.conf setting.
**--username**
The username to access the registry.
**--password**
The password to access the registry.
## EXAMPLES
Mark image example/pause for deletion from the registry.example.com registry:
```sh
$ skopeo delete --force docker://registry.example.com/example/pause:latest
```
See above for additional details on using the command **delete**.
