如何使用 docker-machine 和 VirtualBox 创建具有特定 URL 的 docker 机器? [英] How do I create a docker machine with a specific URL using docker-machine and VirtualBox?

问题描述

I can create a Docker instance with the VirtualBox driver, but I cannot figure out how to specify the URL.

Create Command:

docker-machine create --driver virtualbox myBox

docker-machine ls:

NAME      ACTIVE   DRIVER       STATE     URL                         SWARM
myBox     *        virtualbox   Running   tcp://192.168.99.100:2376   

I want the URL to be a specific URL. How can I force the Docker instance to use a specific URL (ex: 192.168.99.113)?

Details: Mac 10.10.5 using Docker Toolbox

Update

I tried using the --virtualbox-hostonly-cidr command to set the IP range for the docker machine; I specified a range of one IP address ("192.168.99.113/32"), but the machine created had an IP of 192.168.99.100, which is outside of the range I provided.

Is it even possible to set a docker machine with specific IP address?

解决方案

We had the same problem some time ago, trying to change default docker IP in docker machine and we found only 2 ways, how to do it.

1. You can call a create command of docker machine to create your Docker instance with flag

   --virtualbox-hostonly-cidr "192.168.99.1/24"

   This flag set a range of addresses, which could be set for a Docker instance. No guarantee, you get the address you want

2. You can change network settings of virtual machine, leaving NAT and port forwarding for it, making your Docker instance running like it was installed on Host OS.

Of course, the first one is standard approach and seems to be preferable. But in some cases, the second could be usefull too.

Update: There is an open feature request for specifying a static IP for docker machine. So, unfortunately it's not possible to do it right now. Only --virtualbox-hostonly-cidr property, but you have to provide a CIDR Prefix below 29 to make it works (tested for Win version). Or take a look at this comment, where is shown, how you can do it for OS X by configuring Virtual Box, like:

$ VBoxManage dhcpserver modify --ifname vboxnet0 --disable
$ VBoxManage dhcpserver modify --ifname vboxnet0 --ip 192.168.59.3 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --lowerip 192.168.59.103 --upperip 192.168.59.203
$ VBoxManage dhcpserver modify --ifname vboxnet0 --enable
$ docker-machine create --driver "virtualbox" --virtualbox-cpu-count "-1" --virtualbox-disk-size "30000" --virtualbox-memory "2560" --virtualbox-hostonly-cidr "192.168.59.3/24" dev
