This is an old release page. Historical v0.5.8 notes follow below.
Startup polish. ASCII art banner and launch spinner when running attached in a TTY.
Run any command in a disposable container. Optionally run an action on the result.
What's new
- Banner — When stdout is a TTY, dockpipe shows a block-letter "dockpipe" logo and "Run → Isolate → Act" before launching. No banner when piped or in scripts.
- Launch spinner — A short "Launching container…" line with a rotating
|/-\spinner runs for about 0.6s, then is cleared before the container starts. All on stderr so it doesn't mix with container output. action init --from— Copy a bundled action as a starting point:dockpipe action init my-commit.sh --from commit-worktree(orexport-patch,print-summary). Edit the copy and use it with--action my-commit.sh.
