Docker logging drivers

[electriquo]

Docker has a builtin support for multiple logging drivers. For instance, Fluentd.

Given a Docker Compose file

$ docker-compose config
services:
  fluentd:
    container_name: fluend
    image: fluent/fluentd:v1.14.4-1.0
    networks:
      default: null
  nginx:
    container_name: nginx
    depends_on:
      fluentd:
        condition: service_started
    image: nginx:latest
    logging:
      driver: fluentd
      options:
        fluentd-address: fluentd:24224
        tag: nginx.access
    networks:
      default: null
networks:
  default:
    name: example_default

When spinning up an Nginx container, an error pops

$ docker-compose up -d nginx
[+] Running 2/3
 ⠿ Network example_default  Created                                                                                                   0.0s

Error response from daemon: failed to initialize logging driver: dial tcp: lookup fluentd on 192.168.5.3:53: no such host

it seems that Fluentd is resolved to Lima DNS.

I am running Rancher Desktop version 1.0.1 with dockerd. Is it supported or is it a bug?
