Aug 26, 2019  Docker for Mac. Turns out, plenty of native macOS apps can be installed using the brew package manager.Among them is Docker, so I decided to try how it installs and works. Jun 20, 2018  Problem description. Docker for Mac and Docker for Windows cannot be downloaded without logging into Docker Store. Problem location. I saw a problem on the following URL: Install Docker for Mac and Install Docker for Windows Suggestions for a fix. It would be awesome if Docker for Mac and Docker for Windows could be downloaded without logging into Docker Store as not to make. Jan 26, 2019  How to install Docker on your Mac 1. Create a Docker Hub account. Docker Hub keeps track of the containers you're running (or creating) and provides a one-stop shop to find new ones. Sign up for a Docker account with a unique Docker ID, your email, and a strong password. Download Docker Desktop for Mac. Once you've signed up and signed in to Docker Hub, get Docker Desktop for Mac.

Docker is available for Linux, MacOS, and Windows.

MacOS

Docker for Mac is best installed with Homebrew and Homebrew Cask. For other ways to install on MacOS, see Install Docker for Mac in Docker's docs.

💡 Tip: Avoid Docker Toolbox and boot2docker. These are older packages that have been ceded by Docker for Mac.

Install Docker Compose For Mac

Arch Linux

Docker is available in Arch Linux's repositories. Also see Docker in ArchWiki.

Ubuntu

docker.io is available from the Ubuntu repositories (as of Xenial).

💡 Tip: If the docker.io package isn't available for you, see Get Docker CE for Ubuntu for an alternative.

Windows

Install Windows Subsystem for Linux and choose Ubuntu as your guest OS. Install Docker as you normally would on Ubuntu (see above). After that, see these instructions for info on how to get it running.

💡 Tip: Avoid Docker for Windows. While it works in most cases, you'll still face NTFS limitations without WSL (eg, lack of symlinks, which is needed for Yarn/npm to work).

Other OS's

For other operating systems, see: https://www.docker.com/community-edition#download

Verifying if it works

If everything works, you should have the following commands available:

Starting Docker

If you get an error like the one below, you might need to start the Docker daemon.

To start the Docker daemon, it probably needs one of these commands

Enabling on startup

For Arch Linux, Ubuntu and CentOS, this will enable auto-starting of the Docker service:

Intel System Studio on macOS has been tested with and supports the free 'Community Edition' (CE) version of Docker for Mac. If you have a version of Docker Toolbox for Mac on your system, review this Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox article for upgrade details.

IMPORTANT: Using Intel System Studio with Docker Toolbox for Mac has not been tested and is not a supported configuration.

Prerequisites

Before installing Docker onto your system, make sure the following prerequisites have been met:

• macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) is the recommended minimum version for Docker for Mac, although macOS 10.10.3 (Yosemite) or later will also meet the requirements. Additional Docker for Mac requirements can be found in the Docker online documentation.

• Docker for Mac requires that your development system's CPU include support for the full range of hardware virtualization available in most modern mobile, desktop, and server CPUs. On an Intel processor, this means your CPU supports VT-x, VT-d, and VT-x with EPT (all three virtualization features must be supported). You can determine if your Intel CPU supports these features by visiting ark.intel.com and searching for the processor present in your development system. On AMD* processors, the necessary virtualization features are known generally as AMD-V.

Install Docker Desktop For Mac

To determine if virtualization is enabled on your Mac, run the following command at a terminal window (shell prompt):

If virtualization is enabled and available on your Mac, you will see the output shown above. If virtualization is unsupported or disabled, you will see the following:

If you believe your Mac has the appropriate CPU to support the virtualization required by Docker for Mac but the virtualization test above returns a zero, see If VT-x virtualization technology is locked or disabled on your Mac.
