whalebrew install returns client version error

[jimscard]

Several whalebrew commands return an error message:

└─$ whalebrew lint whalebrew/figlet
failed to inspect docker image: Error response from daemon: client version 1.20 is too old. Minimum supported API version is 1.24, please upgrade your client to a newer version

└─$ whalebrew install jq
failed to inspect docker image: Error response from daemon: client version 1.20 is too old. Minimum supported API version is 1.24, please upgrade your client to a newer version

Already installed whalebrew apps work, but can't install any new ones....

What version do you have installed? I see the docker sdk was updated recently (and part of the latest tag / release in this repo)

[jimscard]

I just did a brew reinstall whalebrew just to make sure the issue still repo'd ..

└─$ whalebrew version
Whalebrew 0.4.1+homebrew

[thaJeztah]

Oh! I just notice it may be shelling out to the docker cli (sorry, not really familiar with the source code); what version of docker are you running? (full output of docker version)?

Ok, figured it out based on your docker clue. I applied PR #278 and built locally, and the resultant binary worked. I tried triggering a release via github actions on my fork, btw, and it failed because of node 16 dependent actions - I wonder if that's why there are approved pull requests, but no new release here?

At the risk of potentially being blunt-- is this project unmaintained / in need of another maintainer?

And if a maintainer sees this-- can we get this fixed / merged and a release made?

[moonfruit]

Same problem here

[rbe]

Same here. Worked with an existing installation of Docker Desktop, but stopped after installing Docker via Homebrew as shown in README.

FYI @rbe (I'm also using homebrew, but not for docker) in my case I worked around the issue via...

brew tap --force homebrew/core
brew edit whalebrew

added system "git", "merge", "origin/dependabot/go_modules/github.com/docker/cli-25.0.1incompatible" to the beginning of the install function

HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install -s whalebrew

[Sam-Bate-ITV]

@bfirsh any chance of getting #278 merged and a new tag?

Worked for me after I fixed an issue with brew auto updating and caused a merge conflict.

Thanks
