Is there a way to save docker image creation logs onto a log file?

[episanty]

I am running into some hard-to-diagnose issues with docker images being created seemingly without the required pip packages.

Is there a way to get otter grade to direct the output coming from the docker image creation (as shown briefly on the terminal during runtime) into a log file?

I think you can set an environment variable BUILDKIT_PROGRESS=plain and then docker will output the build logs as plaintext to the console. you can then save the stdout to a file.

BUILDKIT_PROGRESS=plain otter grade ... > otter_build.log

If that doesn't work then this will probably need to be implemented in otter.

@episanty any luck with my solution above? I'm currently working on v7 so I can include this if necessary.
