Open jyecusch opened 1 day ago

jyecusch commented 1 day ago

Feature Request

Suggestion

Support Nitric and the Nitric CLI using Podman

Value

Allows people using Podman instead of Docker to also use Nitric

Alternatives

Use Docker, but this isn't always an option

Notes

The issue surfaces as a CLI error message: "error Docker daemon is not running, please start the docker daemon and try again"

for licensing reasons, I must use Podman at work. Hence I ran into this issue, on Apple Silicon.

I can offer to test any proposed solution on that setup.

(There is an additional complication that I'm also behind an explicit web proxy, so use env vars like HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, NO_PROXY), but let's hope this will "just work" with Nitric. Anyway, I regularly use Podman in that environment without issues - with the exception of Nitric.)
