Sometimes I tried a bunch of containers or images in my own environment, how to remove all the images and containers in the system?
These instructions are provided for your reference:

Note that you do understand what containers and images are in docker.
Do not execute the following commands at will, on the online host:

stop all containers: stop all containers
docker kill $(docker ps -q)

remove all containers: Remove all containers
docker rm $(docker ps -qa)

remove all docker images: remove all docker images
docker rmi $(docker images -q)

Note: Regarding the difference between docker stop and docker kill, we can view the instructions through the following commands:
docker help stop
The main process inside the container will receive SIGTERM , and after a grace period, SIGKILL .

docker help kill
The main process inside the container will be sent SIGKILL , or any signal specified with option --signal .

[D-Laravel]./console node

When developing Laravel, sometimes we need to install nodejs packages through npm, but Node in our system is not new enough. It may be impossible to upgrade due to some factors, such as running an old version of nodejs program, etc. In fact, we can use docker through simple commands, so that we can use the latest version of node image to mount the /sites folder on the host side. In this way, we can execute the new version of the npm command at any time.
