DCNB 🧹

Docker Container Name Broom

This Go utility removes Docker containers with autogenerated names (for example, inspiring_franklin or practical_hawking).

How it works

• Loads adjective/surname lists from Docker's names generator and detects names matching <adjective>_<surname> with an optional numeric suffix.
• Uses the official Docker Go SDK to list all containers and remove the autogenerated ones.

Usage

go build
./dcnb

TUI controls:

• y or Enter: delete all auto-named containers
• n or q / Ctrl+C: cancel and exit

Cross-compile example:

GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm64 go build

Development

• Format and test: gofmt -w *.go and go test
• Names list: based on names-generator.go from Docker's source code.
