Unable to connect to ChromaDB running in Docker

I am running ChromaDB in a docker container which is reachable under http://localhost:8000 and I created shell app using npx create-llama@latest which gave me a nextJs app with "llamaindex": "0.5.24" dependency. I used a notebook to verify ChromaDB is reachable and I am able to create collection and add documents to it using the python client. Can you please shed where the issue might be?
