Docker-client should be buildable on any platform with Docker 1.6+, JDK8+, and a recent version of Maven 3. A note on using Docker for Mac If you are using Docker for Mac and DefaultDockerClient.fromEnv(), it might not be clear what value to use for the DOCKER_HOST environment variable. Docker Engine enables containerized applications to run anywhere consistently on any infrastructure, solving “dependency hell” for developers and operations teams, and eliminating the “it works on my laptop!” problem. It is managed by the Docker for Mac application, which includes autoupdate to update the client and server versions of Docker. If you need several VMs and want to manage the version of the Docker client or server you are using, you can continue to use docker-machine. Docker Desktop is an easy-to-install application for your Mac or Windows environment that enables you to start coding and containerizing in minutes. Docker Desktop includes everything you need to build, test and ship containerized applications right from your machine.
Docker Engine powers millions of applications worldwide, providing a standardized packaging format for diverse applications.
Docker Engine Sparked the Containerization Movement
Docker Engine is the industry’s de facto container runtime that runs on various Linux (CentOS, Debian, Fedora, Oracle Linux, RHEL, SUSE, and Ubuntu) and Windows Server operating systems. Docker creates simple tooling and a universal packaging approach that bundles up all application dependencies inside a container which is then run on Docker Engine. Docker Engine enables containerized applications to run anywhere consistently on any infrastructure, solving “dependency hell” for developers and operations teams, and eliminating the “it works on my laptop!” problem.
Accelerate Innovation
Docker Engine forms the common foundation underlying the Docker Enterprise platform, allowing developers and operators to turn ideas into reality quickly and securely.
Freedom of Choice
Docker Engine supports any type of application - legacy to cloud-native, monolithic to 12-factor - and works with multiple operating systems, across hybrid/multi-cloud and validated to work with Kubernetes CRI.
Intrinsic Security
Docker Engine is built with security in mind. With Docker Content Trust and FIPS 140-2 validation, Docker Engine users can run containerized applications in highly regulated environments.

Key Features and Capabilities
Powered by containerd
Built on the leading open source container runtime, a graduated project of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Containerd implements Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface (CRI) and is widely adopted across public clouds and enterprises.
FIPS 140-2 Encryption
The only container runtime that has been validated by NIST for its encryption, forming a secure and compliant foundation for deploying containerized applications. Part of a “secure by design” engineering philosophy.
Enforce Signed Images
Validate the provenance of containers by enforcing proper digital signing of images before being deployed. Prevents a user from using a container image from an unknown source or building a container image from a base layer from an unknown source.
Integrated BuildKit
BuildKit is an open source tool that takes the instructions from a Dockerfile and ‘builds” a Docker image. This process can take a long time so BuildKit provides several architectural enhancements that makes it much faster, more precise and portable.
Docker CLI
The most popular way to interface with Docker containers is the Docker CLI - a simple, yet powerful client that greatly simplifies how you manage container instances through a clear set of commands.

I can't find any certificate files created by
Docker Beta for Mac
. I need it for my IDE connection to Docker.KroderiaKroderia

I installed the Docker Beta for Mac and found no ~/.docker/ directory.
As mentioned in 'Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox¶'
With Docker for Mac, you get only one VM, and you don’t manage it.
It is managed by the Docker for Mac application, which includes autoupdate to update the client and server versions of Docker.

If you need several VMs and want to manage the version of the Docker client or server you are using, you can continue to use
docker-machine
So you will see certs in
~/.docker/machine
only if you decide to create your own.With the new Docker for Mac setup, check if there are any certificates in
/Applications/Docker.app/
(as in /Applications/Docker.app/Contents/Resources
)If you rely on the default HyperKit, then there is no need for certificate in order to contact the VM with docker command.
As illustrated by the comments below (and the OP Kroderia's answer), the default VM is only accessed through
As Ellis comments below, that can be a challenge for some software like PyCharm:

This is due to that Docker plugin is bundled in PyCharm. It could be updated manually but even with Docker 2.3.1 the problem with Docker Python interpreter will not be fixed.
The next PyCharm 2016.2 EAP with the fix is on its way.

The workaround with
socat
you described will be available in the next PyCharm 2016.2 EAP. The next EAP will be released soon with the updated Docker plugin version.Community♦

@VonC takes the best answer.
I just wanna to provide my solution about this question. The question is about using a connection to manage docker. In fact I am using
Docker Integration
in IntelliJ. - As mentioned in Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox
At installation time, Docker for Mac provisions an HyperKit VM based on Alpine Linux, running Docker Engine. It exposes the docker API on a socket in
/var/tmp/docker.sock
However, it's not the truth, the real socket path is
/var/run/docker.sock
. You can now use unix:///var/run/docker.sock
as API URL in Docker Integration
, not certificate files are needed.- Guess what,
Docker Integration
ver 2.2.*, which works in the stable build(2016.1), failed with unix connection in Mac and got fixed in ver 2.3.1, which works in the preview build(2016.2). Which means if you want to make it works properly, you will need to update your IntelliJ to the preview build and install the newest plugin. - Here's the worst thing. The
Docker Integration
ver 2.3.1 gotNullPointerException
when deploying the Dockerfile, which works in the stable version of IntelliJ andDocker Integration
ver 2.2.* viahttp
connection. I have sent an email to the plugin author and waiting for a furthur solution.

Spent the last few hours, but it's finally working:
- downloaded pycharm early access program
- setup docker hub registry as described here
- pycharm -> preferences -> project interpreter -> add remote -> Docker compose.
