How to make docker daemon (Rancher desktop) work with httpProxy httpsProxy on macOS bigsur(intel core)

[ripun]

Actual Behavior

I am using rancher desktop(docker cli) behind corporate firewall and need to use httpProxy/httpsProxy/HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY to fetch images from public container registries. without VPN i am able to fetch images from public container registries but when connected to VPN and if proxy is configured as part of /etc/docker/daemon.json then Rancher Desktop fails to start. Based on docker documentation it seems file /etc/docker/daemon.json cannot be used for HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY configuration

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce:

1. I did login to lima shell using rdctl shell
2. added /etc/docker/daemon.json
3. modified /etc/conf.d/docker to have DOCKER_OPTS="--config-file=/etc/docker/daemon.json"
4. restarted rancher desktop but RD startup fails due to this change with attached errors

If I remove /etc/docker/daemon.json and try to restart RD then RD restarts without any issue

I tried configuring proxy in ~/.docker/config.json but this does not help

Result

RD startup fails in k3s stage with below errors

Expected Behavior

Need some way to enable http_proxy and https_proxy as part of Rancher desktop

Additional Information

Not sure how can we leverage systemd variables as part of lima to enable HTTP_PROXY
