# Use `DeleteRepository` with an AWS SDK or CLI
The following code examples show how to use `DeleteRepository`.
Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code examples:

#### [ CLI ]
**AWS CLI**
**To delete a repository**
The following `delete-repository` example command force deletes the specified repository in the default registry for an account. The `--force` flag is required if the repository contains images.
```
aws ecr delete-repository \
--repository-name ubuntu \
--force
```
Output:
```
{
"repository": {
"registryId": "123456789012",
"repositoryName": "ubuntu",
"repositoryArn": "arn:aws:ecr:us-west-2:123456789012:repository/ubuntu"
}
}
```
For more information, see [Deleting a Repository](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECR/latest/userguide/repository-delete.html) in the *Amazon ECR User Guide*.
