We use Docker for Mac, older Mac’s may need Docker Toolbox, but that’s not discussed further here.

Unfortunatly there are some issues with the Docker VM ineracting with the adb Android emulator VM.

boot2docker

Located here - /usr/local/share/boot2docker

docker-machine

is the OS-X VM used to run Docker. A nice command would be docker-machine inspect default or docker-machine start. The default machine is called default.

If the network has broken things (as mine often does) then a quick docker-machine restart & docker-machine env / eval $(docker-machine env) may help.

Read the docs for more details.

docker run gliderlabs/alpine echo Hello Rik
 
Run 'Docket Quickstart Terminal', then `eval $(docker-machine env)`

docker-machine start
docker-machine inspect default
docker-machine restart

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
    to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
 $ docker run -it ubuntu bash
