Love this in theory but the first time user experience could be improved:

$ brew install ghostty

Launch it, don't configure anything, in the new terminal window then enter:

$ lazydocker

Response: 2024/12/28 09:04:42 An error occurred! Please create an issue at https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazydocker/issues

*exec.ExitError exit status 1 /home/runner/work/lazydocker/lazydocker/main.go:96 (0x9397d7) /opt/hostedtoolcache/go/1.21.13/x64/src/runtime/internal/atomic/types.go:194 (0x43bc1b) /opt/hostedtoolcache/go/1.21.13/x64/src/runtime/asm_amd64.s:1650 (0x46b9e1)

Which does not happen with fresh out of the box Mac Terminals, iTerm.

Probably it would be good to have less specific default options for people who just want to try it out before starting to configure it.



That’s a problem with lazydocker, not ghostty.

Maybe contribute to https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazydocker/issues/610 ?


Do you have anything to back up this claim? Because it only crashes in Ghostty, and no other terminal emu I tried it in.

Anyway, not my problem, I will just wait until it's fixed and if not, then I'll use one of the gazillion other ones that work 100%.


Crashing due to lack of a sufficient terminfo is indeed more of a lazydocker problem than a ghostty problem. See the issue above for a workaround.
