Hello can someone tell me why this guide

Question

Hello can someone tell me why this guide uses a `setup sh` Shell script for installing Pulumi instead of the official Docker image Note I believe the associated Dockerfile is here

clever-sunset-76585 · Answer

You can use the Docker image if that works better for you The scripts were used to demonstrate setting up the CLI and other tools relevant to the stack you are working with i e the NodeJS runtime Using the script allows you to control what tools you install in your CI environment But if you don t care about that you could simply use the Docker image which installs quite a few things

Ok I see the idea thanks grin

My2cts I would rather write the guide using this all inclusive Docker image and then describe what s inside as it s kind of a walkthrough and people might use it as it is and then there would be more running things and more complexity But I get it

Following this thread I can t figure out how to execute a simple `cd dir` using this official CLI Docker image possibly due to the `ENTRYPOINT pulumi ` in the associated Dockerfile pensive I get `Error unknown command sh for pulumi ``

You would either need to override the entrypoint when running the image or use this parameter to `pulumi` if it fits your use case ` C cwd string Run pulumi as if it had been started in another directory`

for example `docker run it rm entrypoint= bin sh pulumi pulumi` locally will give you a shell into the container

I will try your advise thank you

For those who might search for a solution some day using Gitlab CI you should override the entrypoint using the `image entrypoint` option
