Standard input and `dagger call`

[rain knot]

Is it possible to do echo hello | dagger call some-function and access that data somehow?

[cerulean ivy]

No. What’s the use case, beyond not passing the value as an argument to the function?

[rain knot]

All right, thanks, good to know

I'm just playing around creating a module for Fabric where the use case is often to pipe something like pbpaste into it. But I suppose it's possible to make it work with an argument as well.

when it comes to piping, i think the use-case works only when directly sending a raw graphql query

not to confuse anything, but i think thats one case where piping makes sense. 😵‍💫

e.g

'{
 container {
   from(address: "your.private.registry/dotnet/sdk:8.0") {
     withExec(args: ["dotnet", "-h"]) {
       stdout
     }
   }
 }
}' | dagger query --progress=plain
