|
||
|
||
Docker is supported on Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" or newer.
|
||
|
||
## How To Install Docker On Mac OS X
|
||
|
||
### VirtualBox
|
||
|
||
Docker on OS X needs VirtualBox to run. To begin with, head over to
|
||
[VirtualBox Download Page](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
|
||
and get the tool for `OS X hosts x86/amd64`.
|
||
|
||
Once the download is complete, open the disk image, run the set up file
|
||
(i.e. `VirtualBox.pkg`) and install VirtualBox. Do
|
||
not simply copy the package without running the installer.
|
||
|
||
### boot2docker
|
||
|
||
[boot2docker](https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker) provides a
|
||
handy script to easily manage the VM running the `docker`
|
||
daemon. It also takes care of the installation for the OS
|
||
image that is used for the job.
|
||
|
||
#### With Homebrew
|
||
|
||
If you are using Homebrew on your machine, simply run the following
|
||
command to install `boot2docker`:
|
||
|
||
brew install boot2docker
|
||
|
||
#### Manual installation
|
||
|
||
Open up a new terminal window, if you have not already.
|
||
|
||
Run the following commands to get boot2docker:
|
||
|
||
# Enter the installation directory
|
||
cd ~/bin
|
||
|
||
# Get the file
|
||
curl https://raw.github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker/master/boot2docker > boot2docker
|
||
|
||
# Mark it executable
|
||
chmod +x boot2docker
|
||
|
||
### Docker OS X Client
|
||
|
||
The `docker` daemon is accessed using the
|
||
`docker` client.
|
||
|
||
#### With Homebrew
|
||
|
||
Run the following command to install the `docker`
|
||
client:
|
||
|
||
brew install docker
|
||
|
||
#### Manual installation
|
||
|
||
Run the following commands to get it downloaded and set up:
|
||
|
||
# Get the docker client file
|
||
DIR=$(mktemp -d ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/dockerdl.XXXXXXX) && \
|
||
curl -f -o $DIR/ld.tgz https://get.docker.io/builds/Darwin/x86_64/docker-latest.tgz && \
|
||
gunzip $DIR/ld.tgz && \
|
||
tar xvf $DIR/ld.tar -C $DIR/ && \
|
||
cp $DIR/usr/local/bin/docker ./docker
|
||
|
||
# Set the environment variable for the docker daemon
|
||
export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://127.0.0.1:4243
|
||
|
||
# Copy the executable file
|
||
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
|
||
sudo cp docker /usr/local/bin/
|
||
|
||
And that’s it! Let’s check out how to use it.
|
||
|
||
## How To Use Docker On Mac OS X
|
||
|
||
### The `docker` daemon (via boot2docker)
|
||
|
||
Inside the `~/bin` directory, run the following
|
||
commands:
|
||
|
||
# Initiate the VM
|
||
./boot2docker init
|
||
|
||
# Run the VM (the docker daemon)
|
||
./boot2docker up
|
||
|
||
# To see all available commands:
|
||
./boot2docker
|
||
|
||
# Usage ./boot2docker {init|start|up|pause|stop|restart|status|info|delete|ssh|download}
|
||
|
||
### The `docker` client
|
||
|
||
Once the VM with the `docker` daemon is up, you can
|
||
use the `docker` client just like any other
|
||
application.
|
||
|
||
docker version
|
||
# Client version: 0.7.6
|
||
# Go version (client): go1.2
|
||
# Git commit (client): bc3b2ec
|
||
# Server version: 0.7.5
|
||
# Git commit (server): c348c04
|
||
# Go version (server): go1.2
|
||
|
||
### Forwarding VM Port Range to Host
|
||
|
||
If we take the port range that docker uses by default with the -P option
|
||
(49000-49900), and forward same range from host to vm, we’ll be able to
|
||
interact with our containers as if they were running locally:
|
||
|
||
# vm must be powered off
|
||
for i in {49000..49900}; do
|
||
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port$i,tcp,,$i,,$i";
|
||
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "udp-port$i,udp,,$i,,$i";
|
||
done
|
||
|
||
### SSH-ing The VM
|
||
|
||
If you feel the need to connect to the VM, you can simply run:
|
||
|
||
./boot2docker ssh
|
||
|
||
# User: docker
|
||
# Pwd: tcuser
|
||
|
||
You can now continue with the [*Hello
|
||
World*](../../examples/hello_world/#hello-world) example.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### boot2docker:
|
||
|
||
See the GitHub page for
|
||
[boot2docker](https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker).
|
||
|
||
### If SSH complains about keys:
|
||
|
||
ssh-keygen -R '[localhost]:2022'
|
||
|
||
### Upgrading to a newer release of boot2docker
|
||
|
||
To upgrade an initialised VM, you can use the following 3 commands. Your
|
||
persistence disk will not be changed, so you won’t lose your images and
|
||
containers:
|
||
|
||
./boot2docker stop
|
||
./boot2docker download
|
||
./boot2docker start
|
||
|
||
### About the way Docker works on Mac OS X:
|
||
|
||
Docker has two key components: the `docker` daemon
|
||
and the `docker` client. The tool works by client
|
||
commanding the daemon. In order to work and do its magic, the daemon
|
||
makes use of some Linux Kernel features (e.g. LXC, name spaces etc.),
|
||
which are not supported by OS X. Therefore, the solution of getting
|
||
Docker to run on OS X consists of running it inside a lightweight
|
||
virtual machine. In order to simplify things, Docker comes with a bash
|
||
script to make this whole process as easy as possible (i.e.
|
||
boot2docker).
