sam deploy using orbstack does not work

[georgettica]

Description

if I have a sam cli application that builds a docker and the docker backend is orbstack (https://github.com/orbstack/orbstack).
my OS is macos.

for comparison it does work well with podman (https://github.com/containers/podman) as the docker backend

Steps to reproduce

install orbstack
create a sam cli that uses a Dockerfile
sam build && sam deploy

Observed result

could not find docker

Expected result

build and deploy passes

Additional environment details

1. OS: MacOS
2. If using the SAM CLI, sam --version: SAM CLI, version 1.100.0
3. AWS region: us-east-1

Hi there, this looks like a SAM CLI issue. Transferring to their repo.

Hi @georgettica, thanks for creating this issue. You might need to set the DOCKER_HOST environment variable to point to the orbstack socket. See #5646 (comment)

After setting the environment variable, I was able to run sam build -u and sam local invoke using an orbstack backend. Let me know if this works for you.

I got it via
docker context inspect | jq -r '.[].Endpoints.docker.Host'
