Alternative for Docker, while doing code execution by agent

General

Is there any alternative for docker to avoid the below error.

RuntimeError: Docker is not installed. Please install Docker to use code execution with agent: Python Developer

Unfortunatelly, no. When you set the allow_code_execution parameter to True, the agent leverages the CodeInterpreterTool as the internal code execution tool. But the CodeInterpreterTool requires Docker.

Hello.
You can use CodeInterpreterTool like this:
run_codes = CodeInterpreterTool(unsafe_mode=True)
and setting run_codes as tool for agent. doing this, the code will not verify docker and it will run in your local machine.
Be carefull, to production env, it’s very dangerous, but to develop something, you can do this.

Does anyone know a work around for this. It still does not work in Docker

Thank you to the amazing CrewAI team for helping with this.

If you need to run code in CrewAI and are running Docker this will help

FROM python:3.11-slim

# Install Docker CLI
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y docker.io && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Set up crewai
WORKDIR /crewai
COPY . /crewai
RUN pip install -e .

CMD ["/bin/bash"]
Then you can run the container like this:

docker run --name crewai-container1 \
  --network crew-network \
  -v ~/crewai:/crewai \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -it --rm crewai:latest /bin/bash
