Execute the script using the command such as ./delContainers.sh. And, that is it. it would help you delete all the containers.
function clearContainers () {
CONTAINER_IDS=$(docker ps -aq)
if [ -z "$CONTAINER_IDS" -o "$CONTAINER_IDS" == " " ]; then
echo "---- No containers available for deletion ----"
else
docker rm -f $CONTAINER_IDS
