As title. just wondering if there’s any general guides on Docker usage with OpenWRT as a host? I’ve not used Docker before so it’s altogether confusing, and the limitations imposed by OpenWRT compound this. Tried to clone Docker-compose SearXNG github and that failed (http/s isn’t a git function on OpenWRT compared to Ubuntu), using a copy of another machine’s git-clone also failed, adding it manually via luci-app-dockerman refuses to start. Seems like Docker is belligerent about functioning at all on OpenWRT.
OpenWrt firewall is "strict" - you have to provide your own redirect/dnat rules as exports in docker specs will do nothing. Somewhat similar to fedora firewall, they have more documentation though the way to "open port" is different.

Fixed this, had to ensure that the container was running on bridge network and that the docker0 firewall allowed forwarding to wan/vpn
