Comment from upstream fork:

This with ports mapping:

function format_run() {
    cid=$1

    json=$(docker inspect $cid 2>&1)

    # parse container info
    entrypoint=$(  echo $json | jq -r '.[0].Config.Entrypoint | join(" ")'             )
    envvars=$(     echo $json | jq -r '(.[0].Config.Env | [" -e " + .[]] | join(""))'  )
    image=$(       echo $json | jq -r .[0].Image                                       )
    cmd=$(         echo $json | jq -r '.[0].Config.Cmd | join(" ")'                    )
    mapped_to_container=`(echo $json| jq '.[0].NetworkSettings .Ports' | jq '.[]' | jq '.[]' | jq '.HostPort' | tr -d '"' | cut -f 1- -d\/ --output-delimiter=$'\n' )`
    mapped_to_host=$(echo $json | jq -r '.[0].NetworkSettings.Ports | keys | to_entries |  map(.value) | join(" ")')
