#docker (2022-04)

Yep. Haven’t come across a good reason to move away from it yet.

I build images in GitHub or Gitlab and then push to GitLab Packages or ECR. I’ve started using both AWS ECR and GitHub for my personal images so if I share them with others, they can download anonymously without being rate limited by Docker.

I’m also moving to using the ECR public image gallery for the same reason… https://gallery.ecr.aws/

We’re using project Kaniko to build our Docker images

https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko

@Santiago Campuzano I’m curious what benefits you have seen using kaniko? I’ve heard of it but haven’t played around with it yet myself.

We don’t have to mount the Docker Daemon in our Pipelines, meaning that we can run an unprivileged pipeline/step (using Drone.io) to build the Docker image

It’s a security benefit, mostly

Ahh, that is nice.

From the docs:

docker doesn’t run on mac without a vm, so you either need to run docker desktop or create your own linux vm and run it there.

thanks

I’m not familiar with sam, what issues are you running into that seem to come from docker desktop?

I’m getting this error when calling sam local invoke Error: Running AWS SAM projects locally requires Docker. Have you got it installed and running?

Looks like you may need to set the DOCKER_HOST env var. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-sam-cli-install-mac.html#serverless-sam-cli-install-mac-docker

I believe you can get the value you need by running docker context ls

That did it. I had it setup with Lima but forgot to export in my .zshrc file

Easy to miss that kind of thing
