No docker inside the image?

Describe the bug

I try to run miratalk and miratalkadmin in docker containers. It seems like miratalkadmin has no docker command inside the image and cannot manage my miratalk instance:

I've passed docker socket inside the container, so it should be able to connect to the instance, as docker package is installed inside.

Steps to reproduce

1. clone miratalkadmin
2. cp docker-compose.template.yml docker-compose.yml
3. edit docker-compose.yml, add /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock volume
4. cp .env.template .env
5. edit .env, set NODE_ENV=production, ADMIN_USERNAME, ADMIN_PASSWORD, APP_MANAGE_MODE=docker, APP_NAME=mirotalk,mirotalkadmin
6. docker compose up
7. open https://localhost:9999/admin
8. go to status page
9. see error.

Expected behavior

Correct status page.
