Prisma1: How make it work with Docker Toolbox? (question)

[MichelDiz]

I'm using the Docker Toolbox that create a virtual-machine in VirtualBox. Working, but Prisma doesn't see the daemon.

Hey @MichelDiz – As far as I remember, Docker Toolbox comes with a special bash. I guess that you use the Docker Toolbox on Windows, right? I have no Windows box at hand, but could you ensure to execute prisma local start within that special environment?

EDIT: See this step for further information: https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_windows/#step-3-verify-your-installation

I actually just ran into this myself. Make sure that after you install Docker toolbox, you reboot, and then once you go back in make sure Docker has started. That should allow you to run the Prisma commands within cmd. Otherwise, what @akoenig most likely applies - I still have to do some testing with it to verify.

I would suggest that this information (whatever winds up being the complete answer) gets added to the install instructions for those not familiar with Docker.

[MichelDiz]

yeah! just start the toolbox terminal and then (in the same terminal windows) switch to the project folder path and hence "local prism start".

I'm using Mac OS bytheway. Thank you @akoenig and @LFP6 !

Cheers.

@MichelDiz I highly recommend using Docker for Mac, when you are running macOS – a much smoother experience :)
