I’m actually experimenting with getting my geodesic containers working in WSL right as we speak

Think mine is a problem with docker itself though

alex@GloriousNippon ~/work/staging.spoton.sh master sudo make install
[sudo] password for alex:
docker: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?.
See 'docker run --help'.

I’m not sure why it’s trying to use the socket, i have the host set in the environment

alex@GloriousNippon ~/work/staging.spoton.sh master env | grep DOCKER
DOCKER_HOST=<tcp://localhost:2375>

This is still WSL1 though, I’m considering moving to WSL2 even though it’s in preview, it’s supposed to make this a lot better

fixed that by setting INSTALL_PATH=$HOME/bin
rather than trying to use /usr/local/bin

still problems with volume mounts. mine are permissions issues though; not sure directly related to WSL though like the issue describes
