Is there a way to store long commands in an env variable?

[dodo]

I want to simply run the long command below.

docker ps -a --format "table {{.Images}}\t{{.Ports}}"

export view='docker ps -a --format "table {{.Images}}\t{{.Ports}}"'
echo $view

result

docker ps -a --format "table {{.Images}}\t{{.Ports}}"

But When I run the real variable, I get an error

$view

Result end Error code

"docker ps" accepts no argumets.
See 'docker ps --help'

Usage: docker ps [OPTIONS]

List containers

In short, can't save such long code as an environment variable?

and If possible, can I know another way?
