Auto enabling and auto start docker

[vafeen]

Hi! Current state of this extension starts docker on button "refresh" near the search field, but it appears that this button only will update state, because in some moments user wants only to check status of docker without starting it. For example, check that docker has stopped correctly and is not running now.
More than that, this extension has a so good button start\stop docker. It was the firstly.

Secondly, please add possibility to disable "poll API interval" and "fetch containers interval", for case when user wants always to check it manually in case when user doesn't need in working this extension in background, because all background work uses energy and CPU, and a lot of similar polling extensions can give a bad affect.

As for "fetch in expand" and "fetch in startup" - this functions also starts docker that has a negative affect when user expands this accidentally, and more than that names of this functions "fetch*" tells that it only check...

Thanks you!

Could you please provide more detailed information about the exact error or behavior you are experiencing? For example, specific steps to reproduce it or logs would be very helpful for further investigation.

However, I’d like to clarify that this extension is built using QML, which has some limitations when it comes to networking. QML only supports XHR-based requests and does not support modern JavaScript HTTP APIs. Because of this, optimizing polling behavior and request handling is a bit tricky and requires careful architectural changes. will try fix this but not anytime soon.
