singularity cache clean

Clean your local Singularity cache

Synopsis

This will clean your local cache (stored at $HOME/.singularity/cache if SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR is not set). By default the entire cache is cleaned, use –days and –type flags to override this behavior. Note: if you use Singularity as root, cache will be stored in ‘/root/.singularity/.cache’, to clean that cache, you will need to run ‘cache clean’ as root, or with ‘sudo’.
