buildx_use
Select and activate a Docker builder for buildx operations, with options to persist as default for the current context or globally.
Instructions
Select the active builder for subsequent buildx operations.
Without default or global_default the switch applies only to the current CLI
session. default persists the choice for the current Docker context; global_default
persists across all Docker contexts. Use buildx_list to see available builders and their
current status. To avoid switching the global default, pass a specific builder name
directly via buildx_build's builder parameter instead.
args:
name - Builder name to activate (from buildx_list)
default - Persist as default builder for the current Docker context
global_default - Persist as default builder across all Docker contexts
returns: dict - {"returncode": int, "stdout": str, "stderr": str, "truncated": bool}
