Hey guys, I've experimented with dagger

[ebon dove]

Welcome back!

No, but there is a ton that call can do that cannot be done with run

for example

• be able to easily enter a container using a shell
• be able to easily run services and forward ports
• create a first class mechanism for using a dagger function as both a library and a command line program without any extra work

We are working on a guide that walks through the differences that we hope to publish soon.

So in a sense, each function works more-or-less like a baked in alias for a specific dagger run. As someone that docker exec'd into dagger engine container to debug some pipelines I really welcome all of the three bullet points.

Thank you for the explanation. 🙂
