Automatic installation using install.py

The install.py script will attempt to guide you through the installation of Docker and Docker Compose if they are not present. If that works, skip ahead to Configure docker daemon option in this section.

Install Homebrew

The easiest way to install and maintain docker on Mac is using the Homebrew cask. Execute the following in a terminal.

$ /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
$ brew install cask
$ brew tap homebrew/cask-versions

Install docker-edge

$ brew install --cask docker-edge

This will install the latest version of docker. It can be upgraded later using brew as well:

$ brew upgrade --cask --no-quarantine docker-edge

You can now run Docker from the Applications folder.

Install docker-compose

$ brew install docker-compose

This will install the latest version of the docker-compose plugin. It can be upgraded later using brew as well:

$ brew upgrade --no-quarantine docker-compose

You can now run docker-compose (at /usr/local/opt/docker-compose/bin/docker-compose) from the command-line

Configure docker daemon option

Some changes should be made for performance (this link gives a good succinct overview).

After making these changes, right-click on the Docker 🐋 icon in the system tray and select Restart.
