Testing dockerfile locally
After running wasp build on opensaas, how can I run the docker containers locally? what are the parameters/arguments needed when building the dockerfile and running the containers on my machine (Ubuntu via WSL)?

Hi @Juan. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the knowledge sources provided, I don't have specific information about running Docker containers locally after building an OpenSaaS project with Wasp. The knowledge sources mainly discuss issues related to setting up Docker for development purposes with
wasp start db and deployment with wasp deploy fly, but don't provide detailed instructions for running built Docker containers locally.
However, I can provide some general guidance based on what we know about Wasp and Docker:
1. First, make sure you have Docker properly set up in your WSL Ubuntu environment. Several users have encountered permission issues when trying to use Docker with Wasp in WSL:
- You might need to configure Docker permissions as mentioned in this Discord thread
- Installing Docker Desktop and enabling WSL integration has helped some users
2. For deployment, Wasp does support local building with the --build-locally flag for Fly.io deployments as mentioned in the Wasp deployment docs, but this is specific to Fly.io deployment.
If you're specifically looking to test the Docker containers locally after building with wasp build, I would recommend reaching out to the Wasp community on Discord for more specific guidance, as the knowledge sources don't contain detailed information about this particular use case.
Would you like me to provide more information about setting up Docker properly in WSL, which seems to be a common issue for Wasp users?

Sorry @Juan, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist:
Perhaps try again in 15mins?@Filip has a workflow/script for this!
