Easier Version Selection

Instead of
NODE_VERSION=15.0.0 dockerized node
how about
dockerized node:15
Just a suggestion!
Hi @cawoodm!
Yeah, this would be way handier, and I am in favor of adding it.
Before expanding scripts, I want to think about how to add features in a maintainable way.
Duplicated scripts in Bash and Powershell is fine for now, but just a few more options/arguments and it will become a mess.
See #7 for some details on this.
This feature is now possible to implement.
I'm in doubt weather it would make sense to allow a syntax like node15
rather than node:15
. This is a bit easier in typing and in some cases works quite naturally, like python2.7
.
I also just noticed that your suggestion implies two changes:
- Specifying version after the command, separated by
:
- Translating
15.0.0
to15
The second feature is sort of already supported, as most docker images are released under multiple tags, so that :15
would refer to the latest 15.*.*
. This is not always the case though.
To be continued
Implemented in 2.11! Check it out
