| Using Vagrant (Mac, Linux) |
| ========================== |
| |
| This guide will setup a new virtualbox virtual machine with docker |
| installed on your computer. This works on most operating systems, |
| including MacOX, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and others. If you can |
| install these and have at least 400MB RAM to spare you should be good. |
| |
| Install Vagrant and Virtualbox |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| .. include:: install_header.inc |
| |
| .. include:: install_unofficial.inc |
| |
| #. Install virtualbox from https://www.virtualbox.org/ (or use your |
| package manager) |
| #. Install vagrant from http://www.vagrantup.com/ (or use your package |
| manager) |
| #. Install git if you had not installed it before, check if it is |
| installed by running ``git`` in a terminal window |
| |
| |
| Spin it up |
| ---------- |
| |
| 1. Fetch the docker sources (this includes the ``Vagrantfile`` for |
| machine setup). |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| git clone https://github.com/dotcloud/docker.git |
| |
| 2. Change directory to docker |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| cd docker |
| |
| 3. Run vagrant from the sources directory |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| vagrant up |
| |
| Vagrant will: |
| |
| * Download the 'official' Precise64 base ubuntu virtual machine image from vagrantup.com |
| * Boot this image in virtualbox |
| * Add the `Docker PPA sources <https://launchpad.net/~dotcloud/+archive/lxc-docker>`_ to /etc/apt/sources.lst |
| * Update your sources |
| * Install lxc-docker |
| |
| You now have a Ubuntu Virtual Machine running with docker pre-installed. |
| |
| Connect |
| ------- |
| |
| To access the VM and use Docker, Run ``vagrant ssh`` from the same directory as where you ran |
| ``vagrant up``. Vagrant will connect you to the correct VM. |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| vagrant ssh |
| |
| Run |
| ----- |
| |
| Now you are in the VM, run docker |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| sudo docker |
| |
| |
| Continue with the :ref:`hello_world` example. |
