Clojurians Log v2

I'm trying to run the clj cli tool using the official image with docker run -it clojure clj but it doesn't seem to work. I'm really confused with this new tools and how they interact with lein or boot and would like to try my hand at it. What would be the elegant way to play with it using Docker and the official images? Thanks.

It appears the official image doesn’t include clj. That’s why docker run -it clojure clj fails. Your two options are to install it, or use Leiningen which is already there.

Installing clojure:

$ docker run -it clojure

Please install rlwrap for command editing or use "clojure" instead.

Weird, here it is pulling 1.8

I would have thought the argument to curl, which in my case was “https://download.clojure.org/install/linux-install-1.9.0.358.sh” would be the thing.

Oh, sorry, missed that. Well, thanks!
