| Clean Docker build cache in Minikube to free disk space |
Disk Space Cleanup for Minikube
Minikube docker build cache can grow to 200GB+ from repeated Skaffold builds. This command checks disk usage and cleans the cache without destroying cluster state.
Check Disk Usage
docker exec minikube df -h /var/lib/docker
Clean Build Cache
This frees ~240GB+ without destroying cluster state (PVCs, volumes remain intact):
docker exec minikube docker builder prune -af && docker exec minikube docker image prune -af
What Gets Cleaned
- Docker build cache
- Dangling images
- Unused images
What Remains Intact
- Running containers
- Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs)
- Kubernetes volumes
- Current pod states
- Cluster configuration
Execute the disk check first, show the results, then ask if the user wants to proceed with cleanup.
