edit file in docker image
As in the comments, there's no default editor set - strange - the $EDITOR environment variable is empty. You can log in into a container with:
docker exec -it <container> bash
And run:
apt-get update
apt-get install vim
Or use the following Dockerfile:
FROM confluent/postgres-bw:0.1
RUN ["apt-get", "update"]
RUN ["apt-get", "install", "-y", "vim"]
Docker images are delivered trimmed to the bare minimum - so no editor is installed with the shipped container. That's why there's a need to install it manually.
