Having difficulties configuring Prefect to run locally.
Installed via pip3, depends on docker(already installed) and docker-compose, installed, tested. works.
I already have a running Postgres server, I like to configure to use that one. But it seems like one is used in docker too ? Any help is appreciated.
When running:
prefect backend server
prefect server start
nable to find image 'docker/compose:1.27.4' locally
1.27.4: Pulling from docker/compose (downloads en starts running docker)
Status: Downloaded newer image for docker/compose:1.27.4

The problem I encountered has to do with the way a subprocess is started in Python, Popen( docker-compose up, env=env ) The (current) environment variables are passed when running this command but in some way not available in the child task.
docker-compose up
I adjusted the server.py code and create an .env file on the fly. To test and docker-compose finds and uses it.
The real problem lies within the bash/sh terminal environment and thats where I need to take a closer look.
