I believe that most of us use docker and docker-compose on daily basis, so I decided to share part of my .bashrc file.
Maybe someone will find it useful...

Contents

• General
• Images
• Containers
• Networks
• Volumes
• Docker-Compose

Note about pattern I tried to follow for aliases:

• for docker commands first letter is always d, for docker compose is dc
• if command is related to images then next letter of alias is i, for containers is c and so on...
• following this pattern I found it pretty easy to remember all aliases

General

alias dve="docker -v"
alias dl="docker login --username=dragol"

Explanation

dve - prints out current docker version
dl - docker login, will prompt you for password

Images

alias dil="docker images"
alias dip="docker image prune -f"

Explanation

dil - list all docker images available on my machine
dip - remove all dangling images -f is flag for force

Containers

alias dcl="docker ps"
alias dcla="docker ps -a"
alias dcp="docker container prune -f"
alias dci="docker inspect"
alias dciip="docker inspect -f \"{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}\""
alias dcs="docker start"
alias dcd="docker down"
alias dcr="docker restart"

Explanation

dcl - list running containers
dcla - list all containers
dcp - remove all dangling containers
dci - here you need to pass container id in order to get various information about particular container
dciip - returns container IP address
dcs - here you need to pass container id in order to start container
dcd - here you need to pass container id in order to stop container
dcr - here you need to pass container id in order to restart container

Networks

alias dnl="docker network ls"
alias dni="docker network inspect"
alias dnrm="docker network rm"
alias dnp="docker network prune -f"

Explanation

dnl - list networks
dni - here you need to pass network id in order to see it's details
dnrm - here you need to pass network id in order to delete it
dnp - remove all dangling networks

Volumes

alias dvc="docker volume create"
alias dvl="docker volume ls"
alias dvrm="docker volume rm"
alias dvp="docker volume prune -f"
alias dvi="docker volume inspect"

Explanation

dvc - here you need to pass volume name in order to create it
dvl - list volumes
dvrm - here you need to pass volume id in order to delete it
dvp - remove all dangling volumes
dvi - here you need to pass volumeid in order to see it's details

Docker-Compose

alias dcv="docker-compose -v"
alias dcu="docker-compose up"
alias dcd="docker-compose down"
alias dcb="docker-compose build --no-cache"
alias dcc="docker-compose config"

Explanation

dcv - prints out docker compose version
dcu - start docker compose
dcd - stop docker compose
dcb - new docker compose build from ground up
dcc - check if docker-compose.yml file is valid

Basically, this commands I used the most, I did not post here functions from my .bashrc file (~15), I used them for commands with more the one arguments. Feel free to use them and modify as needed.

Thank you for reading!
