I might be using Eglot unconventionally, but this is how I do it:
There are multiple projects, with their specific compiler versions and
library dependencies. If I installed all of that directly on my
machine, I’d have version hell. Therefore, for each project, I build a
docker image with all the external dependencies packed in. I mount my
source tree into a container and invoke the build in it. Emacs, on the
other hand, runs on the host machine. Thus, my compile-command is
defined in .dir-locals.el and starts with “docker run --rm”.
Similarly, I put the language server(s) into the same container image.
This way, it has access to external library sources. So, my
eglot-server-programs is overridden in each project to run a script
that starts e.g. clangd in a container spun up from the
project-specific development tools image.
I do not bother writing out a copy of the full default value of
eglot-server-programs with my dockerized server substituted or
prepended. The expectation is that each project only uses one or no
more than a handful of language servers.
