Unable to use redis running in docker

Description

Currently it is not possible to run redis server for local development in docker:

Initializing local Quokka cluster.
2023-06-08 08:01:39,652 INFO worker.py:1625 -- Started a local Ray instance.
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'redis-server'

Solution

Add optional **kwargs to LocalCluster, so it is backward compatible.

options = {
    'docker_redis_enabled': True,
}

local_cluster = LocalCluster(**options)
qc = QuokkaContext(local_cluster)
