Docker networking docker desktop for windows
I had not any success to spin up KinD with the version before on Rancher Desktop. If you want to use KinD as well on Rancher Desktop for Kubernetes, make sure you use the latest release v0.12.0. Like Docker Desktop the ACI hello world container can be reached via localhost. > docker run -d -p 80:80 /azuredocs/aci-helloworld:latestĬONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMESĬ6cad07051b9 /azuredocs/aci-helloworld:latest "/bin/sh -c 'node /u…" 16 seconds ago Up 14 seconds 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, :::80->80/tcp clever_goldberg I am spinning up the ACI hello world container image from Microsoft and map the port to port 80. Per default your home folder and the folder /tmp/rancher-desktop are available for mounting them into your containers. Those changes are applied by hitting the button Reset Kubernetes which in the end restarts Rancher Desktop.īefore we start with a quick check of Rancher Desktop let me tell you something about the default host volume mounts Rancher Desktop provides.
Rancher Desktop uses per default 2 CPUs and 4 GB memory which I adjusted to 4 CPUs and 8 GB memory. But this is a matter of taste, and you might be happy with the built-in Kubernetes component k3s of Rancher Desktop. KinD offers a lot of customization like using another CNI component like Calico for CNI and network policies instead of relying on the built-in one. The reason I am disabling the built-in Kubernetes component is the following that I am using KinD (Kubernetes in Docker) as my local Kubernetes setup providing a near identical setup locally what I am using in Azure with AKS. When you have installed Rancher Desktop and start it for the first time you are greeted by the initial configuration screen.Īs I do not want to use the built-in Kubernetes component of Rancher Desktop, I uncheck it and switching the container runtime from containerd to dockerd.

So, here we are again talking about how to replace Docker Desktop on macOS with Rancher Desktop. Kubernetes can be disabled to run just containerd or dockerd by itself for reduced resource consumption. Also, the host volume mount performance is now as good what Docker Desktop provides. Since Rancher Desktop version 1.1.0, which has been released a couple of days ago, you can finally disable the Kubernetes component just using containerd or dockerd as your container runtime. Rancher Desktop instead was promising but the host volume mount performance was not that what I am used to, and you could not disable the Kubernetes component. Podman Machine was out very quickly without support for host volume mounts.
Last year I wrote a blog post about running Podman on macOS with Multipass as a Docker Desktop replacement.īack at that time I had looked also into Podman Machine and Rancher Desktop.
