Setup eslint/prettier on docker + host about docker-experiments

[pierreyves-lebrun]

I stumbled upon the same problem, which ends up being quite frustrating as all the workarounds I’ve seen so far are somewhat hacky.

Edit: actually there is one elegant solution to it:

A solution (from this twitter thread) might be to:

• in local:
  • dont run frontend dev env in a docker container (use installed nodejs on the developer's computer)
  • have the frontend dependencies installed on host at ./front/node_modules, based on ./front/package.json - use yarn workspaces to have husky installed at the very root of the project ?
• in CI:
  • run the frontend unit tests / build in a docker container
  • no change for the golang api (always in a container)

I've been told about this solution. You're right @pierreyves-lebrun , this might be the first one true elegant way to solve that problem in a long time. cc @warpdesign
