docker-machine-driver-veertu

Like xhyve, Veertu takes advantage of the Hypervisor.framework that was introduced in OS X 10.10, which brings Type 1 hypervisor technology (direct, host-level access to hardware) to OS X.

Why Veertu?. You can install it in the AppStore

There is no current docker-machine-driver for veertu. So I'll investigate the posibility to code one myself.

Who am I? No one, just some random Software Dev/Architect with ~10 years of experience out in the wild.

This branch was born by accident because of twitter, veertu's quick responses and my couriosity.

Please join the discussion if you feel the need for this, have ideas, etc.

  • Docker Machine Driver Plugins some documentation about how driver-plugins work.
  • The idea behind this branch is to have the best, easiest and FREE way to get docker started in OSX with no hassle.
    • Install Veertu in the AppStore. (keep it updated from there)
    • Install docker toolbox if you don't already have it along with this plugin.
    • Run docker-machine create --driver veertu ...
    • And there you have it!

Roadmap

  • Create a basic hackish implementation until veertu has an API to talk to.
  • Once Veertu has it's api implement all the driver functions with it.
  • Add a good folder-sharing strategy. NFS, RSYNC or something like that by default.

Some disclaimers:

  • I don't have a lot of spare time in my life, but will do the best effort to make this work.
  • If I can't make it work I will probably delegate this branch to someone with more time.
  • Veertu doesn't have any API/CLI client as of today, so don't expect this branch having anything non-experimental soon.
  • I'm not related to Veertu Labs Ltd in any way.
