When building a custom component with fondant build, it requests to install docker

[jBontinck]

I am starting from a clean setup with pip install fondant + I followed the instructions to install docker desktop. I made an easy custom DaskLoadComponent and wanted to build it with fondant build . -t v1

I receive following message: You need to install docker to use the fondant build command, you can install it with pip install fondant[docker]

I would expect that I don't need additional libraries given

• I installed fondant already (implicitly all requirements)
• I installed docker Desktop

I can solve this by following the feedback in the message, but is not what I expected

Coming back to this: When executing the command pip install fondant[docker] i get following message zsh: no matches found: fondant[docker]

solved with pip install docker

@jBontinck thanks for the feedback. Looks like your shell is not interpreting the command correctly. For zsh pip install "fondant[docker]" should work. We should consider updating the log message here.

For the case you want to install all extra requirements you could use pip install "fondant[all]", but this will install a lot of things that you probably don't need right now.

It looks like we should revisit the dependencies and extra groups.
