Unable to execute a command inside a docker container - sql

Question

I am trying to spin up a Postgres container via the Docker Go SDK. I can get the container started, and I copy my SQL file into the container and verified the file is there.
I cannot run this file, which right now just contains CREATE TABLE tester;
Here is my Go code that I am trying to use:
package gosqlcontainer
import (
"archive/tar"
"bufio"
"bytes"
"context"
"fmt"
"io"
"log"
"os"
"os/exec"
"time"
"github.com/docker/docker/api/types"
"github.com/docker/docker/api/types/container"
"github.com/docker/docker/client"
)
func StartContainer() string {
ctx := context.Background()
cli, err := client.NewClientWithOpts(client.WithAPIVersionNegotiation())
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
imageName := "postgres"
out, err := cli.ImagePull(ctx, imageName, types.ImagePullOptions{})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
defer out.Close()
io.Copy(os.Stdout, out)
container, err := cli.ContainerCreate(ctx, &container.Config{
Image: imageName, Env: []string{"POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password"},
}, nil, nil, nil, "")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
if err := cli.ContainerStart(ctx, container.ID, types.ContainerStartOptions{}); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
tarFile := TarFile("test.sql")
if err = cli.CopyToContainer(ctx, container.ID, "/home/", tarFile, types.CopyToContainerOptions{AllowOverwriteDirWithFile: true}); err != nil {
fmt.Println("error copying to container", err)
}
time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
execCommand, err := cli.ContainerExecCreate(ctx, container.ID, types.ExecConfig{AttachStdin: true, AttachStderr: true, AttachStdout: true, Cmd: []string{"psql", "-U postgres -f /home/test.sql"}})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("exec err is", err)
}
if err := cli.ContainerExecStart(ctx, execCommand.ID, types.ExecStartCheck{}); err != nil {
fmt.Println("Err Start", err)
}
return container.ID
}
When I try to do this from CLI, I can run that file and verify that the DB is created. However, programmatically it does not work, and I do not see any errors returned.
The goal is for this to be a library I can reference to spin up a container, import data, and used for integration tests. I am currently calling it from a basic client locally, using go run main.go I am working on macOS Monterey v12.4
