Feature request: support Finch

Open ottokruse opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Describe your idea/feature/enhancement

Support using Finch which is an AWS provided alternative to the docker command line client.

Yes I have seen #4584 but I'd like to ask that you reconsider. AWS CDK supports Finch. Is it an option to rework your implementation to support Finch as well (drop docker py in favor of another method, eg how CDK does it)?

Introducing Finch: An Open Source Client for Container Development

Thank you for considering!

As a workaround you can set the DOCKER_HOST variable (see https://docs.docker.com/reference/cli/docker/).

e.g. on MacOS:

export DOCKER_HOST="unix:///Applications/Finch/lima/data/finch/sock/finch.sock"
