Docker.app will complain about incompatible processor, so we will use Docker Machine.
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.
docker-machine create
eval $(docker-machine env)
docker run hello-world
docker-compose up
@brorbw, can you pls advice on this error:
unable to get image 'postgres:14.5-alpine': Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
commands with docker works (like docker run hello-world) but any call to docker-compose bumps to this error (have installed docker-compose).
