[zenith] New `source` field in dagger.js...

[jaunty seal]

Hey Vincent, great to hear from you.

Yeah you are spot on, we are in a bit of a liminal space right now and there are some key things like this issue that make things a bit tricky if you are using both classic and new Dagger. https://github.com/dagger/dagger/issues/5993

and just relying on a module to build a project is too limited - at least for our use-case.

Could you tell us a bit more about why this is the case for you specifically?

I've been playing with a few things lately, I don't think there will be a simple way to import modules in classic dagger until we resolve #5993 but you can call dagger modules from a standard shell using go in the context of a classic dagger program.

A very basic example:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "os"
    "os/exec"
)

func main() {
    cmd := exec.Command("dagger", "call", "-m", "github.com/shykes/daggerverse/hello", "message")
    cmd.Stdout = os.Stdout
    cmd.Stderr = os.Stderr

    err := cmd.Run()

    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
}
