Hi, I'm new to using the app and I was wondering if there was a way to create a script that can start a docker container (with

docker-compose up -d

) on startup ? I've tried using provisioning scripts but end up getting stuck waiting for docker to be ready as the startup doesn't start Docker until the provisioning scripts have finished...

Can't you just use the

restart

policy in the compose file to achieve this? Something like

services:
  your_service:
    image: your_image
    restart: unless-stopped

I'm not sure this would work in my case. The point of this is to be able to load a prebuilt image on the machine and then with a single click open Rancher-Desktop, start the containers, and start a localhost page.

I think all of this should work, except for opening a page in the host browser. That isn't possible from inside the VM; you would have to do this from a wrapper script. Something like (assuming macOS):

rdctl start
while ! curl -s 127.0.0.1:3000 >/dev/null; do sleep 1; done
open <http://127.0.0.1:3000>
