Hi - I've encountered an issue, but I'm not sure its a bug because my situation is unique. Because of the upcoming license changes to Docker Desktop I have configured my local machine to use the Docker daemon on a VM thats already running on my local machine to support microk8s. When attempting to run a docker agent I encountered issues related to

host.docker.internal

. I dug into the source and realize the IP only gets set properly if the

sys.platform

starts with

linux

. My host machine is OSX, but docker is running on Linux. Here is my prefect agent start command

prefect agent docker start -b <tcp://192.168.64.2:2375> -l bh-docker --network prefect-server --log-level DEBUG --show-flow-logs --no-pull

Thanks for sharing! I don’t think we consider this a bug, but it’s great to learn from your experience!

Its kind of strange behavior since the agent supports running on a docker daemon that is not physically local to the machine with the

-b

flag, but outside adding a new cli option Im not sure there is a great solution.
