How to find docker host ip on Mac

on

Docker runs a separate Docker host (small footprint Linux VM) on Mac which is different from main machine. So any port which maps to container to host machine, cannot be accessed by localhost. Instead it has to use docker host is.

Here is how you can get docker host ip on Mac

## docker-machine ip vm_name
$ docker-machine ip default


To get names of all docker machines, you can use

docker-machine ls
NAME      ACTIVE   URL          STATE     URL                         SWARM   DOCKER   ERRORS
default   *        virtualbox   Running   tcp://192.168.99.100:2376           v1.9.1
