generating types without supabase-cli?

Is it possible to generate types without using the supabase cli?
I tried to get the supabase cli working in my project but I can't figure it out. My project already uses supabase, but to get the cli to work, I did
brew install supabase
brew install supabase
then ran
supabase init
supabase init
and then
supabase start
supabase start
in my project directory which gave me the following error:

➜ supabase start
Error: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
in github.com/supabase/cli/internal/utils.AssertDockerIsRunning:41
in github.com/supabase/cli/internal/start.Run:43
Try rerunning the command with --debug to troubleshoot the error.

The docs don't say anything about installing or setting up docker

Supabase gives you the tools, documentation, and community that makes managing databases, authentication, and backend infrastructure a lot less overwhelming.
