Your code is perfect. I just add a touch: setup an alias in your terminal that point the program to the script. I use Fish Shell so i will add alias docker '~/.bin/docker.sh'.

Just an idea: You could replace
basename "$0"withbasename "${0%.*}"to allow to rename to i. e. docker.sh for the docker command etc.
