Docker and Docker Compose on AMD OSX Hackintosh via Docker Machine

docker-compose-hackintosh.md

Introduction

Docker.app will complain about incompatible processor, so we will use Docker Machine.

Instalation

Download Docker for Mac (Docker.app). It contains some binaries that are necessary.

brew install virtualbox docker-machine

# Normally, those links are created automatically by running Docker.app,
# but it quits on us too early, so we need to do this manually
ln -s "/Applications/Docker.app/Contents//Resources/bin/docker-compose" /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
ln -s "/Applications/Docker.app/Contents//Resources/bin/docker-credential-desktop" /usr/local/bin/docker-credential-desktop
ln -s "/Applications/Docker.app/Contents//Resources/bin/docker-credential-osxkeychain" /usr/local/bin/docker-credential-osxkeychain

You can also use brew to install docker and doccker-compose and it should work without linking above.

Running

docker-machine create
eval $(docker-machine env)
docker run hello-world
docker-compose up

Since docker-machine is deprecated and archived, I recommend using minikube with virtualbox driver instead.

Installing minikube and docker:

brew install minikube docker

Creating the kubernets cluster using the virtualbox driver:

minikube start --driver=virtualbox --keep-context

Configures the Docker CLI in your current shell to use the minikube's docker:

eval $(minikube docker-env)

To use docker-compose just install it via homebrew:

brew install docker-compose

If you want to access a served application on a container (localhost:8080/route), you'll need the minikube IP to access it, using localhost won't work. And to retrieve the IP is just like that:

minikube ip

You can set this IP on /etc/hosts to access applications without typing the IP.

sudo echo "$(minikube ip) minikube" >> /etc/hosts

Now you can use docker without any problems on your Ryzentosh.

This worked perfectly for me. Thank you @jakoritarleite!!

thanks a lot @jakoritarleite

@jakoritarleite I am getting

docker-compose up
Error response from daemon: Client sent an HTTP request to an HTTPS server.

Any idea why?

Dude, THANK YOU! This solves the problem here!

I'm getting the error when running the minikube start command:

Im running into the same issue as @johnalbert-dot-py. I suspect that virtualbox 7 have some breaking changes.

Edit: As I suspected virtualbox have made some breaking changes by deprecating the host-only network driver.

Here is a VERY hacky fix (hacky because brew does not support installing a specific version)

1. Uninstall virtualbox

brew uninstall virtualbox

2. Clone the homebrew-cask repo

git clone https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask /tmp/homebrew-cask && cd /tmp/homebrew-cask

3. checkout the version just before the upgrade to virtualbox 7

git checkout aa3c55951fc9d687acce43e5c0338f42c1ddff7b

4. Install the old version

brew install Casks/virtualbox.rb

Now you just need to force virtualbox to stay at version 6 until the issue is resolved.
Check this link https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/436413
Or add these two lines to your zshrc, bash_profile w/e

export HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1
export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_UPGRADE=1

Following up on this comment: I once tried updating my brew packages (via brew upgrade ) and accidentally upgraded my Virtualbox installation as well to latest version v7.0.4. Then I noticed that my local Docker commands stopped working. It seems that this latest version of Virtualbox deprecates host-only adapter in the networking part of a virtual machine (minikube seem to require this exact networking option); resulting in an error similar to https://gist.github.com/slykar/e92732be9bf81a71e08068245656d70e?permalink_comment_id=4334542#gistcomment-4334542 cc @johnalbert-dot-py

These helped me:

1. Uninstalled Virtualbox using the VirtualBox_uninstall.cmd tool in the installation DMG
2. Restarted my mac
3. Download & install Virtualbox version 6.1.40 (where the host-only adapter is not yet deprecated)
4. Making sure that in the System Preferences > Security & Privacy we allow Oracle when prompted
5. Restarted my mac once again
6. Voila, able to minikube start again and don't forget to eval $(minikube docker-env)

Hope this helps!

Has anyone tested these settings in Ventura?

Yes, it works for me on Ventura. But only on version VB 6.1.40. I did it according to the scheme described by @kareemlukitomo

tl;dr

sudo -- sh -c "echo $(minikube ip) minikube >> /etc/hosts"

Thanks for all the pointers. Here's what I had to do, as unfortunately in Ventura 13.1, VirtualBox 6.1.40 kexts do not load, which means no luck when creating a host-only network adapter.

In order to fix this, you need to edit your config.plist file and disable kext signing from SIP as indicated at https://caizhiyuan.gitee.io/opencore-install-guide/troubleshooting/extended/post-issues.html#disabling-sip.

After doing so, proceed to reinstall VirtualBox 6.1.40, kexts will now load at startup and should enable minikube to create the host-only network adapter.

I still can't make docker run using minikube, I already try @fsegouin solution but still not working (gets the same error about host-only network adapter)

@johnalbert-dot-py can you confirm that you are running a version of VirtualBox that supports the host-only network adapter and that you have Kext Signing disabled.

~ VBoxManage --version
6.1.38r153438

~ csrutil status
System Integrity Protection status: unknown (Custom Configuration).

Configuration:
	Apple Internal: disabled
	Kext Signing: disabled #<--------- ( this on in particular )
	Filesystem Protections: disabled
	Debugging Restrictions: disabled
	DTrace Restrictions: enabled
	NVRAM Protections: enabled
	BaseSystem Verification: enabled

This is an unsupported configuration, likely to break in the future and leave your machine in an unknown state.

~VBoxManage --version
6.1.42r155177
~csrutil status
System Integrity Protection status: enabled.

I get following errors.
VBoxManage: error: AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS) (VERR_SVM_DISABLED)

I also tried
~VBoxManage modifyvm "minikube" --hwvirtex=off --nested-hw-virt=off

@sunkeunchoi you should enable AMD-V in your bios settings if it's not enabled. Refer to the manual for a guide on how to turn it on.

Enabling SVM in BIOS setting solved issue
Thank you

This works for me. Tested with Ventura 13.2.1 (22D68). Virtual Box 6.1.40. Disabled SIP.

I tried it, but always return an error, when run the command to create an vm.

@dheerajv4855 you can also use the official https://github.com/docker/machine for that

Hi,
can you share what error you are getting ?

you should allow virtualbox from security at time of installation
make sure you are using version 6.1.26
Uninstall and install again virtualbox and see if that works

one thing i would like to mention is SIP is disabled in my system
@namchuai has also a working virtualbox in ventura with SIP disabled
maybe that could be a reason

@mam

This works for me. Tested with Ventura 13.2.1 (22D68). Virtual Box 6.1.40. Disabled SIP.
@namchuai , were you enable to create an vm and start it with no errors?

@evenlee yes, I can

@evenlee yes, I can

Thanks for confirming, it's wired I cannot run any vm even minikube vm by start button in VM window, but I can use 'minikube start' to start the minikube vm. my value to disable sip is 6F020000(I also tried many values, same result, but this one seems perfect), and i am just upgraded to 13.3 from 12.6.

@evenlee sorry, I misunderstood your question. I tried with windows VM but got same error as your.

Edit: I can use Genymotion (which is a VM for Android) normally.
