Can I get it in a Docker container?
10 comments

It would be like having `ls` in a container
The joke has to be more accessible to land ;)
I think this is one of the cases where Nix would be easier. To try it out without polluting your global namespace, nix run nixpkgs#mc.
I guess so, but what would be the use case for it?

  docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd):$(pwd)" -w "$(pwd)" nixery.dev/mc mc
I have it in a Docker container in UnRaid to move all my Media around. It’s great.
why bother? I use mine in my AI powered, headless, kubernetes cluster
Yes. Probably even a distroless one.
unraid has a docker container for Krusader - same thing different flavor, why not.
This is not a chat client.
Lol. Realistically speaking, you'd have to bind mount your entire home for it to be usable then
Maybe you're just looking to shell around in your container deployed in a pod somewhere.
That should be doable with `kubectl debug ...` - e.g. attach an ephemeral sidecar container with mc to already running pod. And you would ofc. configure that in K9S as a plugin to easily launch it :)
