I use ohmyzsh as my preferred shell setup. I also use Docker. Recently, I've been focused on automating the setup and teardown of my applications. This is where ohmyzsh's excellent support for docker comes in, as it has many aliases that help with shortening the use of common tasks.
You can add it to your .zshrc plugin list:
When you restart your shell, you'll have access to commands like
-
dipru(docker image prune -a) -
dps(docker ps) -
dvls(docker volume ls)
Additionally, if you enable stacking, you'll able to pass options to aliases like dcls (docker container ls). However, be aware of the following issue:
This enables Zsh to understand commands like docker run -it ubuntu. However, by enabling this, this also makes Zsh complete docker run -u with docker run -uapprox which is not valid. The users have to put the space or the equal sign themselves before trying to complete.
Anyways, that's it for today! Ohmyzsh gives us many tools out of the box, docker aliases with autocompletion is one of them. Enable it and you'll have access to many commands you won't need to maintain yourself.
