Detect and handle docker compose setups (grouping) #42

Description

I like the way the menu handles context actions for a container:

  1. You click on the task bar icon, the list of containers appears.
  2. You click on a container, the container visually expands from the bottom, and a list of options/actions appears.

That's a great UX for independent containers!

Accommodate Docker Compose with the same idea

I believe, the same idea could be used to accommodate groups of containers that are defined by Docker Compose. Those groups are listed by the docker compose ls command.

IIUC, the group is already detected, which results in displaying <container group> ℴ <container name> menu items.

  • I would find it helpful if containers of the same "container group" were grouped together, expandable/collapsible as a whole (list of containers).
  • In addition, there could be commands that apply to the entire Docker Compose setup in that intermediate menu.
