Garbage collection of unused docker resources

Primary LanguageGoOtherNOASSERTION

drone-gc is a simple daemon that periodically removes unused docker resources. The garbage collector is optimized for continuous integration systems. It uses an lrfu algorithm to control the size of your image cache, while retaining the most frequently used images.

Installation:

docker run -d \
  --volume=/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  --env=GC_DEBUG=true \
  --env=GC_CACHE=5gb \
  --env=GC_INTERVAL=5m \
  --restart=always \
  --name=gc drone/gc

Configuration:

GC_DEBUG
Enable debug mode
GC_DEBUG_PRETTY=false
Pretty print the logs
GC_DEBUG_COLOR=false
Pretty print the logs with color
GC_IGNORE_IMAGES
Comma-separated list of images to ignore. Supports globbing.
GC_IGNORE_CONTAINERS
Comma-separate list of container names to ignore. Support globbing.
GC_INTERVAL=5m
Interval at which the garbage collector is executed
GC_CACHE=5gb
Maximum image cache size
