# repository

NOTE: This command's behavior will be replaced by \`ionosctl container-registry repository delete\` in the future. Please use that command instead. Delete all contents of a repository (deprecated form).

## Usage

```
ionosctl container-registry repository [flags]
```

```
ionosctl container-registry repository [command]
```

## Aliases

For `container-registry` command:

```
[cr contreg cont-reg]
```

For `repository` command:

```
[rd del repo rep-del repository-delete]
```

## Description

NOTE: This command's behavior will be replaced by `ionosctl container-registry repository delete` in the future. Please use that command instead. Delete all contents (all artifacts and tags) of a repository, effectively removing the repository.

The registry V2 API only allows manifests and blobs to be deleted individually, not whole repositories, so this command performs that cleanup for you as a convenience. This is irreversible.

      --offset int           Number of items to skip before starting to collect the results
