Docker Rootless (not supported) about cm HOT 4 CLOSED

@niklasschaeffer nothing prevents you from adding your regular user to Docker group. This socket /var/run/docker.sock is owned by docker group and has all permissions.

# usermod -a -G docker someuser

nah you are missing the point. if you install docker desktop for linux you can simply only install it inside user directory. there is no file /var/run/docker.sock existent.

@niklasschaeffer we never tested such scenario but CM relies on standard Docker client and so variables like DOCKER_HOST and other ones will work. https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/#environment-variables

@vania-pooh you were right DOCKER_HOST does work indeed :) thanks
