Is there more than one way to show "possible" docker container images, that is docker containers which have been downloaded through the pull command as:

docker ps -a

lists jetty twice:

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS                      PORTS               NAMES

490e3d669259        jetty               "/docker-entrypoint.…"   22 hours ago        Exited (143) 21 hours ago                       quirky_antonelli

a44230a617e1        jetty               "/docker-entrypoint.…"   22 hours ago        Exited (143) 21 hours ago                       goofy_hamilton

and:

docker container ls

no dockers currently running:

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS              PORTS               NAMES

In fact I used pull to download both the above Jetty and a hello world. How do I list everthing which is now available?

What you have pulled are images not containers. You can also use images sub-command. It's like an alias to docker image ls.

$ docker images

debian           latest         ae8514941ea4     2 weeks ago         114MB

python           alpine         f8a57363ff96     2 weeks ago         80.3MB

To get a list of incremental images use -a flag:

$ docker images -a
