If you're using an older version of Colima or have other applications that are
unaware of Docker context the following workaround is available:

1. Locate your Docker Socket, see: [Colima's FAQ - Docker Socket Location](https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/blob/main/docs/FAQ.md#docker-socket-location)
- Locate your Docker Socket, see: [Colima's FAQ - Docker Socket Location](https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/blob/main/docs/FAQ.md#docker-socket-location)

2. Set the `DOCKER_HOST` environment variable to match the located Docker Socket
- Create a symbolic link from the default Docker Socket to the expected location, and restart Colima with the `--network-address` flag.

```
sudo ln -sf $HOME/.colima/default/docker.sock /var/run/docker.sock
colima stop
colima start --network-address
```

- Set the `DOCKER_HOST` environment variable to match the located Docker Socket

* Example: `export DOCKER_HOST="unix://${HOME}/.colima/default/docker.sock"`

3. As of testcontainers-go v0.14.0 set `TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE`
- As of testcontainers-go v0.14.0 set `TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE`
to `/var/run/docker.sock` as the default value refers to your `DOCKER_HOST`
environment variable.
