Useful script, thanks

Thanks!

one-liner for the network - ensuring the network is created:

docker network ls | grep nginx-proxy || docker network create  nginx-proxy

docker network ls | grep nginx-proxy || docker network create  nginx-proxy

Grep might be too broad. Check this:

docker network inspect nginx-proxy &>/dev/null || \
    docker network create nginx-proxy
