Support Alternative Container Backends #36

Closed camerondurham closed 1 year ago

camerondurham commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some users may not wish to use Docker Desktop on Windows/Mac or Docker Engine on Linux due to possible feature bloat, required updates, etc. It would be nice to support other container "backends"/runtimes? such as Podman.

Describe the solution you'd like

Optionally support other container "backends"/runtimes like Podman

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Additional context For now, this request is just a pipe dream. I probably will not be able to implement this feature and unforuntately the project is written in a way that heavily relies on the Docker SDK. This would involve a major rewrite which I currently am not that interested in doing.

But, if there's enough interest I can motivate myself to break this down into smaller subtasks others can help with.
