Expected behavior

bash_completion.d/docker should be fast to execute. It probably should not make any docker calls until actually needed.

Actual behavior

Executing the bash completion script causes a noticeable pause when opening new bash sessions.

The slowest part is a call to docker:

+++ [[ -r /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/docker ]]
+++ . /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/docker
+++++ shopt -p extglob
++++ __docker_previous_extglob_setting='shopt -s extglob'
++++ shopt -s extglob
+++++ docker info --format '{{range .ClientInfo.Plugins}}{{if eq .Name "compose"}}{{.Path}}{{end}}{{end}}'

This seems to be:

COMPOSE_PLUGIN_PATH=$(docker info --format '{{range .ClientInfo.Plugins}}{{if eq .Name "compose"}}{{.Path}}{{end}}{{end}}')

$ time docker info --format '{{range .ClientInfo.Plugins}}{{if eq .Name "compose"}}{{.Path}}{{end}}{{end}}'
/usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose

real    0m2.538s
user    0m0.142s
sys     0m0.085s
