[Enhancement]: Support TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE to be read from ~/.testcontainers.properties

Module

Core

Proposal

When I understood these correctly:

• https://java.testcontainers.org/features/configuration/#customizing-docker-host-detection
• https://java.testcontainers.org/supported_docker_environment/#colima
• https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-java/issues/5034

… on mac with colima, the environment variable TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE is required.

This is a nuicance, when acceptance tests are run from the IDE, since then every run configuration has to include this env variable, or maybe you would have to create a template for it, etc. I tried to work around that situation by using ~/.testcontainers.properties for it, but only when I set the actual environment variable, the tests work fine.

# See https://java.testcontainers.org/features/configuration/
#     https://dotnet.testcontainers.org/custom_configuration/

docker.client.strategy=org.testcontainers.dockerclient.EnvironmentAndSystemPropertyClientProviderStrategy

# export TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE=/var/run/docker.sock
# TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE -> docker.socket.override
docker.socket.override=/var/run/docker.sock

# export TESTCONTAINERS_HOST_OVERRIDE=$(colima ls -j | jq -r '.address')
# TESTCONTAINERS_HOST_OVERRIDE -> host.override
host.override=192.168.106.2

# Equivalent to the DOCKER_HOST environment variable. Colons should be escaped.
# export DOCKER_HOST="unix://${HOME}/.colima/default/docker.sock"
docker.host=unix\:///Users/aek/.colima/default/docker.sock

Running Integration Tests only with properties

With only the ~/.testcontainers.properties in place, ryuk cannot be detected:

Inizia tracciando come Testcontainers legge ~/.testcontainers.properties e risolve TESTCONTAINERS_DOCKER_SOCKET_OVERRIDE. Esegui ./mvnw -P runITs verify usando solo il file delle proprietà; il lavoro è completato quando l'override del socket viene rispettato e Ryuk si avvia correttamente senza la variabile d'ambiente.
