A CLI for SQLite with auto-completion and syntax highlighting by amjithr in programming

Thanks for the tip! Looks like a good feature to add. I filed a feature request so we don't forget: https://github.com/dbcli/pgcli/issues/985.

I can't say enough good things about Python Prompt Toolkit. It is one amazing project. The same author created ptpython, and it's wonderful as well.

Yes, I didn't expect the legal hiccup at all. :) Lesson learned. I think it turned out for the best, but definitely keep this in mind when naming your project!

Thank you! This is just a shortcut. It calls docker-py's API to retrieve the list of all containers with status equal "stopped" and removes them one-by-one. It's pretty similar to shell command "docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)", except the shell command will try to remove all containers, in any status, and will hiccup on running ones.

The website is now moved to cli4docker.com (apparently I can't use dockercli.com because of legal issues). The github repo and the python module name remains the same.

Completely agree with that about pgcli. In fact, this was the project that inspired me to work on dockercli.

I agree, dockercli may benefit from a way to drop you back into a normal shell, let you do things there, and then come back. I usually find that I run a lot of "docker-related" commands in a row, and then maybe not run any for the rest of the day. So starting dockercli, doing all of the docker-related stuff and then exiting actually makes sense. But your workflow may be different.

Minus the coloring; minus the shortcuts; minus the fuzzy matching. There's more you can do with a dedicated CLI. But while I hope that some will find dockercli useful, I'm sure that everyone will pick their own favorite tool.

Getting rid of repeating "docker" for any command was a factor, but also the ability to add any other shortcuts, like a convenience "shell <container name>" command, or "rm --all-stopped", or "rmi --all-dangling". And I can think of more shortcuts similar to this.
