![]() ![]() This is thanks to Docker Toolbox using VirtualBox to host images and containers, and installing command line tools to more "Linux" path locations. If you are using Docker Toolbox, your images and containers can typically coexist together. VirtualBox prior to version 4.3.30 must not be installed as it will cause issues with Docker for Mac ![]() OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite or newer, as the Hypervisor framework used is available in Yosemite onwards Because the application uses newer technologies only available in newer machines and OS versions, it has minimum requirements, which are: Mac minimum requirementsĪ 2010 or newer model, with Intel's hardware support for memory management unit (MMU) virtualization Successive updates to the application have made the installation process and the resulting application increasingly "more native" and better integrated with the operating system. Install and Setupĭownload the native application for your platform here. I am a Mac user, so I'll be focusing on the Mac version of Docker's new application, but I'll highlight any significant differences with the Windows version. These changes aim to make your Docker containers run faster than before, take up less disk space, and fit better into your operating system. Docker for Windows uses Microsoft's virtualization technology, Hyper-V. It worked pretty well but could be unreliable at times and required workarounds that sometimes resulted in unexpected outcomes or not working at all.ĭocker for Mac removes the dependency on VirtualBox and instead uses virtualization technology that is already part of Mac OS X, HyperVisor. This extracted directory structure includes the full platform, your files are buried underneath the platform in the sites directory as shown below.Recently out of private beta, Docker's new native applications aim to replace the current methods for running Docker on Windows and Mac, creating a better experience for developers using those platforms.įor the previous solution, Docker Toolbox used VirtualBox to create a small Linux virtual machine that hosted your images and containers. ![]() This allows you to change the makefile and run the rebuild from makefile option or replace the database.sql file and have the next docker created use the new database. You can always rebuild the docker and if the directory matching the tar.gz exists it will not be overwritten. thingsĪfter the first time you extract the image it will not re-extract the backup over your files so you don’t have to worry about the docker image being deleted after use. You can point navicat or some other gui mysql at 192.168.99.100:3306 and access the database with drupal:drupal. To show what ports kitematic opened to the docker VM (80,443,3306) click the settings tab and then ports: If we change this to we get a self-signed certificate warning and after accepting your imminent death you can access a secured version of the site. This is because Kitematic runs a headless virtualbox instance with docker inside of it. Notice the web address is not in the local subnet. We see the logs of apache running in the terminal and if we click the red highlighted web preview area we get our backup opened in the default browser. We can restart apache if need be, run a drush registry rebuild, make a snapshot of the mysql database, enter the mysql CLI in the container, or open a shell at the site directory location to run additional drush commands in the container. We can make modifications to the makefile in our extracted directory and rebuild from it. Really for kitematic users the only part we care about this is the task menu portion. Now we are greeted with a fun interactive menu. The only real time you’d want to say no to this is if you’d like to run multiple backups at the same time and you don’t care about https. Here we want to start the container and normally we will say yes to binding on 80,443, and 3306 because this gives us https access to the site. Install and open kitematic from current version is 0.7.2Ĭd into the drupal_docker folder we checked out earlier it should look something like this:Īnd you’re all set to get this backup up and running by running start.sh. After downloading it put it in the drupal_docker folder. Grab your from central by clicking Export and then Get. Let’s just dive in and clone the docker new-backup branch git clone -b new-backup Follow the instructions on my first blog post about how to get docker set up ![]()
