Description

imo it would be handy if there was an event model, eg for such:

actors_labels = event.actor.labels

in contrast to the current:

event_properties = parse_event(event_string)
container_id = event['Actor']
actors_labels = client.containers.get(container_id).labels

which turns against the dry-paradigm quickly.

Research direction

Start by tracing the current event string parsing and container lookup described in the issue, including the event properties and Actor references. Define the model's intended event and actor interfaces first; done would mean callers can reach actor labels through the proposed event model without repeating the current parsing and lookup sequence.
