Cant connect to docker from Docker Go Client in windows with wsl2

Docker Engine General
,

Here is how I retrieve the client

func getClient() *client.Client {

	cli, err := client.NewClientWithOpts(client.FromEnv, client.WithAPIVersionNegotiation())

	if err != nil {
		panic(fmt.Sprintf("Error getting client: %v", err))
	}
    // fmt.Println("Docker client secured ...")
	return cli
}

This is where the error occurs

cli := getClient()
    ctx := context.Background()

	buildOptions := types.ImageBuildOptions{
		Dockerfile: filepath.Join(directory, "Dockerfile"),
		Tags:       []string{imageName},
	}

    // fmt.Println(filepath.Join(directory, "Dockerfile"))

	buildContext, err := os.Open(directory)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error opening build context:", err)
		return "", err
	}
	defer buildContext.Close()

	buildResponse, err := cli.ImageBuild(ctx, buildContext, buildOptions)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error building image:", err)
		return "", err
	}

This is the error

Seems to me you are not initializing with the correct local Docker API address.
