Has the image_file argument been removed from dx run?

I was trying to follow along with this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOP_iSZpR6g&t=959s however when I'm trying to run dx run swiss-army-knife with --image_file="images/bcftools.tar.gz" (as instructed by the tutorial I get the error "dx: error: unrecognized arguments: --iimage_file

    You forgot the 'i' : )

    --iimage_file not the --image_file

    The name might be a bit odd at first. The first 'i' indicate that this is part of input spect. All the other characters are actual input field name. Therefore, you could see something like --iin, --iimage, --ibam, etc.

  • sorry, I actually made a typo in my question, I did have --iimage_file in the command, but actually the problem was that I had two dashes. With a single dash it works '-iimage_file'. In my defence I was very sleepy yesterday afternoon ?
