Installing docker cli plugins (specifically docker-compose v2)

[nearcatch]

Docker Compose v2 is now primarily a plugin for docker instead of a standalone application. The directions on compose's github are as follows:

Copy the relevant binary for your OS under $HOME/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose

Or copy it into one of these folders for installing it system-wide:

• /usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins OR /usr/local/libexec/docker/cli-plugins
• /usr/lib/docker/cli-plugins OR /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins

(might require to make the downloaded file executable with chmod +x)

 

 

How would I do this in unraid? None of these locations exist in unraid. I see a "plugins" folder in my docker folder but putting docker-compose there and then chmod +x does nothing (I also tried the "plugins/storage" folder and the "plugins/storage/ingest" folder). I also tried creating the "cli-plugins" folder in $HOME/.docker (which is linked to /boot/config/plugins/dockerMan/), but that didn't work either.

There is a new plugin in CA for just such a thing.

Thanks. I wish unraid allowed user installation of docker plugins but this will do for now.

I need to install a plugin: scan-cli-plugin

 

This is for vulnerability scanning local images.  Is there a way to install docker plugins on unraid, or would I need to create a vm and install the linux version of docker there?
