  • human readable docker ps output

    When you run a lot of containers the built in docker ps output becomes unreadable. This command formats the output to be easier on the eyes. Requires q (https://github.com/harelba/q) text as data. Show Sample Output

  • Pretty print docker ps command

    If you have many port mappings, docker ps output becomes pretty illegible. The ~120 char one-liner changes the output into a more readable list of container! Show Sample Output


    0
    docker ps | perl -ple "s/\$/\n\n/g;s/\s{2,}/\n/g;s/(Up)/\\e\[32m\$1\\e\[0m/g;s/(Down)/\\e\[31m\\e\[5m\$1\\e\[25m\\e\[0m/g;s/^([^\n]+)/\\e\[1m\$1\\e\[0m/g;s/(\w+?)$/\\e\[4m\$1\\e\[24m/g" | more

  • Clear disk space by retaining only currently running Docker containers and only currently required Docker images.

    Useful if your Docker host starts running out of disk space due to Docker debris. You should start by running "sudo docker ps" in order to check that all required containers are in fact running, and fix any that aren't before proceeding to the main event! "sudo docker rm $(sudo docker ps -q -f status=exited)" removes all containers which are no longer running. "sudo docker rmi $(sudo docker images -q -f dangling=true)" removes all Docker images not required for currently running containers.

    sudo docker rm $(sudo docker ps -q -f status=exited); sudo docker rmi $(sudo docker images -q -f dangling=true)

Recursive cat - concatenate files (filtered by extension) across multiple subdirectories into one file
Useful if you have to put together multiple files into one and they are scattered across subdirectories. For example: You need to combine all .sql files into one .sql file that would be sent to DBAs as a batch script. You do get a warning if you create a file by the same extension as the ones your searching for. find . -type f -name *.sql -exec cat {} > BatchFile.txt \;

Diff on two variables
You got some results in two variables within your shell script and would like to find the differences? Changes in process lists, reworked file contents, ... . No need to write to temporary files. You can use all the diff parameters you'll need. Maybe anything like $ grep "^>" is helpful afterwards.

cp the file
Copy the file with the given .extension at the source file's location. Eliminates the typing of long paths again and again.

FizzBuzz in one line of Bash
The (in)famous "FizzBuzz" programming challenge, answered in a single line of Bash code. The "|column" part at the end merely formats the output a bit, so if "column" is not installed on your machine you can simply omit that part. Without "|column", the solution only uses 75 characters. The version below is expanded to multiple lines, with comments added. for i in {1..100} # Use i to loop from "1" to "100", inclusive. do ((i % 3)) && # If i is not divisible by 3... x= || # ...blank out x (yes, "x= " does that). Otherwise,... x=Fizz # ...set x to the string "Fizz". ((i % 5)) || # If i is not divisible by 5, skip (there's no "&&")... x+=Buzz # ...Otherwise, append (not set) the string "Buzz" to x. echo ${x:-$i} # Print x unless it is blanked out. Otherwise, print i. done | column # Wrap output into columns (not part of the test).

Create a tar archive using xz compression
Compress files or a directory to xz format. XZ has superior and faster compression than bzip2 in most cases. XZ is superior to 7zip format because it can save file permissions and other metadata data.
