Prompt hangs when docker server connection drops #6

Closed so0k closed 7 years ago

so0k commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to reduce the timeout as the prompt becomes almost unusable as soon as the connection to the docker host is lost:

2016-11-09 10:35:37,851:ERROR:shell:docker:UnixHTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=None): Read timed out. (read timeout=60)

this means that prompts only show up after 60 seconds

@so0k I have reduced the timeout to 2 seconds by default. It can now be configured to any other value if needed.

Please update to v1.0.4 to take advantage of this.

Also, make sure you are using powerline-daemon to speed up powerline segments processing.

This Powerline segment (powerline-docker) works better as a Tmux segment rather than a Shell segment. Because this way it does not need to connect with the Docker engine at every command.

Please feel free to reopen this issue if your problem persists.

Best,
