Supdock
August 20, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
What's Up, Doc(ker)? A convenient way to interact with the docker daemon. Supdock is a wrapper for the docker command meaning you can still use all of the other docker commands without issues.
Why
Repetitive use of docker ps, docker logs, docker stats and docker exec -ti when troubleshooting complex container setups can get chaotic. Supdock aims to optimize and speed up your workflow using docker.

Installation
Script
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/segersniels/supdock/master/scripts/install.sh | sh
NPM
npm install -g supdock
Chances are you will run into issues with yarn due to symlink issues, so install through npm instead.
Binary
Grab a binary from the releases page and move it into your desired bin (eg. /usr/local/bin) location.
mv supdock-<os> /usr/local/bin/supdock
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/supdock
Alias
If you don't want to use supdock and docker separately you can just set an alias.
alias docker="supdock"
