#MAC BREW INSTALL DOCKER CODE#

Mount the project code directory from the host into the container the project code directory is usually somewhere in a subdirectory of your home directory.Testing and Troubleshooting Your Docker Installation ¶ĭocker needs to be able to do a few things for ddev to work: With gitpod.io you don't have to install anything at all. Inside your WSL2 distro, mkcert -install.

Double-check in Ubuntu (or your distro): echo $CAROOT should show something like /mnt/c/Users//AppData/Local/mkcert.

#MAC BREW INSTALL DOCKER WINDOWS#

This will set WSL2 to use the Certificate Authority installed on the Windows side.

In an administrative PowerShell, run the command setx CAROOT '$(mkcert -CAROOT)' If ($Env:WSLENV -notlike '*CAROOT/up:*').

In an administrative PowerShell, run mkcert -install and answer the prompt allowing the installation of the Certificate Authority.

In an administrative PowerShell: choco install -y mkcert.

Install mkcert on the Windows side this may be easiest with Chocolatey: In an administrative PowerShell, Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force ::SecurityProtocol = ::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072 iex ((New-Object ).DownloadString('')).

You can then source ~/.bashrc to start immediately, or it should start the next time you open git-bash.

Install docker-ce in WSL2 using the normal Linux instructions, for Debian/Ubuntu follow these instructions inside the WSL2 distro:Įcho 'wsl.exe -u root service docker status > /dev/null || wsl.exe -u root service docker start > /dev/null' > ~/.bashrc.

Ubuntu 20.04 is recommended, wsl -s Ubuntu-20.04.

If you don't already have WSL2, install it with wsl -install, which will likely require a reboot.

Most of the installation is the same as on Linux, but it can be summarized as:

#MAC BREW INSTALL DOCKER SOFTWARE#

This uses entirely open-source software and does not require a license fee to Docker, Inc. Windows WSL2: Docker-ce installed inside WSL2' ¶Īlthough the traditional approach on Windows/WSL2 has been to use Docker Desktop, a number of people have moved away from using Docker Desktop and just installing the Docker-provided open-source docker-ce package inside WSL2. It has extensive automated testing with DDEV, and works with DDEV both on traditional Windows and in WSL2. Docker Desktop for Windows ¶ĭocker Desktop for Windows can be downloaded via Chocolatey with choco install docker-desktop or it can be downloaded from. On Windows, you can install Docker Desktop, which works with both traditional Windows and WSL2, or if you're working inside WSL2 (recommended) you can just install docker engine (docker-ce) inside WSL2. It has long been supported by DDEV and has extensive automated testing.

#MAC BREW INSTALL DOCKER FOR MAC#

After starting Colima, start each project as needed and ddev snapshot restore -latestĭocker Desktop for Mac can be installed via Homebrew ( brew install homebrew/cask/docker) or can be downloaded from.

Make sure all your projects are listed in ddev list.

To move project databases from Docker Desktop to Colima:

Moving projects from Docker Desktop to Colima ¶ but be careful which context you're pointing at.ĭDEV has extensive automated test coverage for colima on macOS, but of course Colima is young, so please share your results and open issues or contact us for help. This means you can actually run Docker Desktop and Colima at the same time. You can change to the default (Docker Desktop) with docker context use default or change back with docker context use colima.

Preferring a CLI-focused approach to Docker Desktop's GUI focus.ĭocker contexts let the docker client point at the right docker serverĬolima activates its own docker context in order to not conflict with Docker Desktop, so if you docker context ls you'll see a list of available contexts with currently active context indicated with an '*' (which will be 'colima' after you've started colima).

Working for an organization that due to its size requires a paid Docker plan to use Docker Desktop, and wanting to avoid that cost and business relationship.

Preferring to use open-source software (Docker Desktop, unlike Docker, is proprietary software).

Colima does not require installation of Docker Desktop, or does it require paying a license fee to Docker, Inc., and it seems to be the most stable alternative at this time. They work on both amd64 and arm64 (M1) macs. This is similar to what Docker Desktop actually does, but Colima and Lima are entirely open-source and just focused on running containers. Colima is an open-source project that bundles the container management tool lima with a docker (linux) back-end. Colima ¶Ĭolima the preferred docker provider for macOS. The two easy docker providers for macOS are Colima and Docker Desktop for Mac.
