[erlang-questions] Not getting exit_status when using open_port with docker

[pablo platt]

I looked at erlsh. It uses open_port with a loop like I'm using in my code
so my question still stands.
Why I'm not getting the exit message from the "docker run" command?

erldocker looks nice but I couldn't find the equivalent of "docker run"
without starting, attaching, detaching and destroying a container.
I'm not sure how to do it manually because I need to know when the
container exits which docker run does.
