[Enhancement]: Improve ASP NET example with SQL Server using Rosetta
mmalvik opened this issue · comments
Problem
The docs say:
I think it would be smart to point out the SQL Server image can run fine on ARM Mac using Rosetta.
At least in using Docker desktop this works fine:
SQL Edge also has some downsides:
However, using Azure SQL Edge does have some drawbacks. First, you cannot develop against a specific SQL Server 2017/2019/2022 version with Azure SQL Edge. Second, SQL Edge’s unsupported features impose a limit on some scenarios, including: In-Memory OLTP, CLR, and CLR based data types.
Solution
Improve the example with info on how to run the SQL Server.
Another alternative is to remove those details from the example and move it to
https://dotnet.testcontainers.org/modules/mssql/
Benefit
Improved documentation.
Alternatives
Leave the docs as is.

Thanks for sharing the issue/enhancement. I totally forgot about the documentation. I replaced Azure SQL Edge with PostgreSQL some time ago (#1156) after Microsoft announced they would no longer continue developing or supporting it.
I suggest changing the documentation to indicate that the referenced example uses PostgreSQL. Then, add the information about Rosetta to the MSSQL module documentation. WDYT?
That sounds good to me 👍
I can look into a PR for this soon
