CLI in a Container
Can the cli be used from within a container? Or does it need to be run natively and then a container started based on the dockerfile the cli retrieves?
LWhy it wouldn't work? We have both npm and homebrew distributions. You can install it during the image build.
AMaybe I should clarify a little. I'm a bit confused about this statement in the docs, "with the Crawlee CLI which automatically adds the correct Dockerfile into our project folder." So the cli, running in a container, will add a dockerfile?
AWhen you create actor by CLI, Dockerfile generated based on https://github.com/apify/apify-actor-docker to support relevant container for runs in cloud.
L@KhanoftheNorth That's too late. You need the Dockerfile to build the image and then start the container. Basically the normal flow is that you download CLI locally, use it to generate the code templates with dockerfile, push that code to GitHub, deploy it and build it and run the container
