💖 SEN(1) — like, the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, because we're reading sen(1) together and honestly? it's giving main character energy for your terminal. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

sen — a terminal user interface for docker engine 🐳💅

like, it's a TUI. for docker. that's the whole vibe. periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sen

yep. that's it. no flags, no args, no notes. just run her. iconic behavior honestly 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so sen is a terminal user interface for docker engine. let me break down everything she does, because there is a lot and I'm obsessed:

  • it can interactively manage your containers and images: manage? start, stop, restart, kill, delete,... — yes, all of it, from inside the terminal, no context switching, no docker subcommand gymnastics 💀
  • there is a "dashboard" view for containers and images — your little command center, your HQ, your main character moment ✨
  • you are able to inspect containers and images — peek behind the curtain, ngl that's kind of hot 🔥
  • sen can fetch logs of containers and even stream logs real-time — live logs, streaming, no refreshing, we love to see it 👑
  • buffers support searching and filtering — so when the output is 4000 lines long you can actually find the thing. thank you queen 🙏
  • sen receives real-time updates from docker when anything changes — e.g. if you pull a container in another terminal, sen will pick it up. literally she's always watching (affectionately) 👀
  • sen notifies you whenever something happens (and reports slow queries) — she's a yapper and she's keeping you informed, that's what besties do 💖
  • supports a lot of vim-like keybindings (j, k, gg, /, ...) — vim girlies, this one's for us 🧚
  • you can get interactive tree view of all images (equivalent of docker images --tree) — tree view!! interactive!! it's giving nature documentary but for container images 🌈
