Problem
Customers using Docker Desktop with containerd image store enabled encounter failures when running
azd packagewith easy-init/simplified-init flow. The error manifests as:This occurs because containerd image store has compatibility issues with certain Docker build operations used by buildpacks.
Solution
This PR implements a detection mechanism and user-friendly workaround suggestion:
Detection Method: Added
IsContainerdEnabled()to detect when Docker is using containerd as the image store by checkingdocker info -f "{{ .DriverStatus }}"for the containerd driver signature.Error Pattern Matching: Added
isContainerdBuildError()to identify the specific error pattern that occurs with containerd-related build failures.Helpful Suggestion: When both conditions are met (containerd error + containerd enabled), the code provides a clear suggestion to disable containerd in Docker Desktop settings.
Example Output
Before:
After (when containerd is detected):
Testing
Fixes Azure#3.
