It says API of your docker python package doesn’t match the docker engine server API. You should install a docker python package compatible with 1.24 or update your docker engine API to 1.30.

Additionally, you can try assigning new value to your docker client as follows:

client = docker.DockerClient(base_url='unix://var/run/docker.sock', version="1.24")

OR

client = docker.APIClient(base_url='unix://var/run/docker.sock', version="1.24")
