Error encountered when executing script with Docker - 6: docker: command not found

[ginsul]

Hi,

Seems like there are problem when running docker?

ts=2024-02-15T11:18:16.300Z caller=scripts.go:108 level=debug msg="Script 'docker' execution succeed" cmd=./examples/docker.sh stdout="0\nnumber_of_files 0\n" stderr="./examples/docker.sh: line 6: docker: command not found\n" env=

Running with :

docker run --rm -it --name script_exporter -p 9469:9469 -v $(pwd):/examples -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ricoberger/script_exporter:main -config.file /examples/config.yaml -log.level=debug

Thank you

Hi @ginsul, the /examples/docker.sh example requires Docker and was used to test, if the output of a Docker container can be used with the exporter.

This example will not work with our Docker image, since it doesn't contain Docker.

If you want to use it, you have to build your own Docker image where Docker is installed inside the image, to have a Docker in Docker setup. I'm not completely sure if this will work, since I never tested it.
