JetBrains Rider 2022.3 Help

Docker tools settings

Specify the paths to the Docker CLI executables that JetBrains Rider uses for interacting with the Docker daemon.

Enable the Docker plugin

This functionality relies on the Docker plugin, which is bundled and enabled in JetBrains Rider by default. If the relevant features aren't available, make sure that you didn't disable the plugin.

  1. Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings and select Plugins.

  2. Open the Installed tab, find the Docker plugin, and select the checkbox next to the plugin name.

For this page to be available, the Docker integration plugin must be installed and enabled.

JetBrains Rider should be able to automatically detect the Docker CLI executables in the default install location. However, if you installed Docker in a custom location, you may need to specify the paths manually.

Docker executable

Specify the path to the base Docker CLI executable. Default locations:

macOS and Linux

/usr/local/bin/docker

Windows

C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\docker.exe

Docker Compose executable

Specify the path to the Docker Compose standalone executable. Default locations:

macOS and Linux

/usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Windows

C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\docker-compose.exe

Use Compose V2

Use the docker compose command instead of the standalone docker-compose.

For more information, see Compose V2 Overview.
