I just use bash aliases in my .profile

----

alias dm="docker-machine"

alias dc="docker-compose"

alias denv='function __denv() { eval "$(dm env $@)"; unset -f __denv; }; __denv'

----

dm create --driver virtualbox local

denv local

Also works with swarm params:

denv local --swarm swarm-master

The whole Quay team at CoreOS uses OSX to develop a container registry. As a result I have a bunch of useful aliases as well[0]. A lot of them have to do with just plain cleaning up after yourself, but I also wrap my calls to `docker` with a zsh function that will eval my dev docker-machine environment if it hasn't been already.

Thanks for this, I'd been typing way too much for too long. However, dc overlaps with the dc program so I've moved to dkm and dkc (since I actually use dc from time to time.)

Mine are similar:

dssh() { docker exec -ti $1 /bin/bash }

dexec() { img="$1" shift docker exec $img /bin/sh -c "$@" }
