docker version creates a docker container per query/command

[lolouk44]

a few issues when using docker

1. I actually have to run the command as ./hass-cli when in same folder. Ubuntu 16.04. So your command source <(hass-cli completion zsh) doesn't work. I tried source <(./hass-cli completion zsh) but still can't use autocomplete. I get a lot of errors like:
   

2. each time I run the command, a new container gets created and never cleaned. This means I can't add the container to watchtower (for auto-updates) as I don't know its name. If I name the container (with --name hass-cli for example), then I have to manually remove it first before I can call the command again

Thanks though. Really looking forward to having it working, looks great

1. you need to put the hass-cli script into your path. Then it works.

2. this is a short lived container so not expected to have a consistent name. If you have a better suggestion on how to run the docker command let me know.

Thanks. Added to path, now I can run without the full path.
Still get issues though:

I've amended the script to name the container and delete after running:

docker run --name hass-cli -e HASS_TOKEN -e HASS_SERVER -e _HASS_CLI_COMPLETE -e COMP_WORDS -e COMP_CWORD -e _HASS_CLI_COMPLETE $IMAGE $*
docker rm hass-cli > /dev/null

Are you 100% sure you have the right content in that downloaded hass-cli ?

".ror: No such command" is not something I can see how this docker image would outpout.

I believe it's correct...
Here is the content:

## Use the tag that best fits you
## dev contains last build from dev branch. 
#TAG=dev
## latest is latest released build
TAG=latest
## You can also use a specific tag, see https://hub.docker.com/r/homeassistant/home-assistant-cli/tags
## for available ones.
##TAG=0.6.0

IMAGE=homeassistant/home-assistant-cli:$TAG

## The -e arguments passes in the environment variables needed for basic hass-cli setup (HASS_SERVER and HASS_TOKEN)
## and whats needed for auto completion (_HASS_CLI_COMPLETE, COMP_WORDS, COMP_CWORD)
## Be aware that while hass-cli runs via docker these variables values will be visible using `docker inspect`.
docker run --name hass-cli -e HASS_TOKEN -e HASS_SERVER -e _HASS_CLI_COMPLETE -e COMP_WORDS -e COMP_CWORD -e _HASS_CLI_COMPLETE $IMAGE $*
docker rm hass-cli > /dev/null
