How to start docker with flags -it using CliWrap?

[miroljub1995]

When I want to start docker run -it alpine cat it gives me:
the input device is not a TTY. I'm running the following code using dotnet run in wsl:

await using Stream stdOut = Console.OpenStandardOutput();
await using Stream stdErr = Console.OpenStandardError();
await (CliWrap.Cli.Wrap("docker") | (stdOut, stdErr))
    .WithArguments($"run -it alpine cat")
    .ExecuteAsync();

Any idea how to start it?
Thanks.

Wrap it in an actual TTY:

await using Stream stdOut = Console.OpenStandardOutput();
await using Stream stdErr = Console.OpenStandardError();
await (Cli.Wrap("cmd") | (stdOut, stdErr))
    .WithArguments(new[] {"/c", "docker run -it alpine cat"})
    .ExecuteAsync();

Now it says the input device is not a TTY. If you are using mintty, try prefixing the command with 'winpty'

Not sure how, but default dotnet Process works,

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("docker", "run -it redis redis-cli")

Do you know what is the difference in running with CliWrap and Process in this case, is it only setup of ProcessStartInfo?

The stdout/stderr/stdin are redirected, so they don't reach an actual terminal. I thought running via cmd would be enough to fool it because the streams are not redirected at the outer layer.
