I have installed docker as described here raspberrypi.org/blog/docker-comes-to-raspberry-pi with curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh.
How do I uninstall it?

3For posterity, this is the wrong way to install now that docker is in the Raspbian repos.– goldilocks ♦Commented Mar 11, 2018 at 19:39

I had to use sudo apt remove docker-ce. The script at get.docker.com runs "$pkg_manager install -y -q docker-ce$pkg_version" so docker-ce is the package, not docker.

9"docker -v" still worked. I did "sudo apt autoremove" to get rid of it entirely.– andyCommented Dec 3, 2018 at 10:44

Uninstall it by using
apt remove docker -y
Hope that helps.

Worth noting that the script sourced by
curl | shappears to useapt-get, which is whyapt removeis appropriate.– goldilocks ♦Commented Mar 11, 2018 at 19:33 -

1It does not: "Package 'docker' is not installed, so not removed" Commented Mar 11, 2018 at 19:34

Well, it very well could have, if you go look at it. What it does if it didn't will be harder to figure out. You might check
dpkg -l | grep dockerto see if it used a package with a more convoluted name.– goldilocks ♦Commented Mar 11, 2018 at 19:37 -
After that I did
sudo dpkg --purge docker-ceCommented Jan 20, 2019 at 22:14
To remove the package:
sudo apt remove docker-ce*
To remove the docker0 network interface:
sudo ip link delete docker0
Additional:
Remove any USB Ethernet entries that you might have put at the bottom of the /etc/dhcpcd.conf
why? I upgraded to buster stable and my RPi3B+ seemed like it was fire-walled. Above fixes ethernet ghosted connections, WIFI was working. I say ghosted because the Plymouth desktop showed a live connected eth0 and Ip address, for example, 192.168.1.100 but couldn't ping anything local to remote and vice versa. If I locally clicked on the WiCD icon the network would come alive. But not on a reboot.
The residue of Docker USB-net connections to the swarm, in the dhcpd, was stopping me using the ethernet.

Also, when doing apt-update, docker.com was still in the sources.list . To remove the entry $ sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list Commented Jan 28, 2020 at 21:17
