nerdctl compose does not support ~ or $HOME in volumes

[kigawas]

$ lima nerdctl --version
nerdctl version 0.17.0

The two docker compose files below do not work:

    ...
    volumes:
      - "/tmp/lima/test/.data/localstack:/tmp/localstack"
      - $HOME/.lima/test/sock/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"

    ...
    volumes:
      - "/tmp/lima/test/.data/localstack:/tmp/localstack"
      - ~/.lima/test/sock/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"

Only full path is allowed:

    ...
    volumes:
      - "/tmp/lima/test/.data/localstack:/tmp/localstack"
      - /Users/me/.lima/test/sock/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"

Expected behavior, because the env var is resolved inside the Lima guest ($HOME=/home/me.linux), not in the Lima host ($HOME=/Users/me)

Thanks for explanation. Any workaround on this?

docker-desktop has a different behavior, it uses exposes $HOME from host machine
