Using Docker on Mac Mini

[simoncn]

Select Settings, then select Resources, then select Network, then select Enable host networking, then click Apply & restart.

You will see a prompt asking if you want to allow Docker to find devices on local networks. Select Allow.

Under Images, search for 'minimworld'. Select 2-2-arm64 and click Pull.

At this point, host networking is enabled but there is no way that I could find to use Docker desktop to create a container that uses host networking. If you run the image suing Docker desktop, it will use bridge networking. The only way I could find to run the image with host networking was to create a container using this command from a Terminal window:

docker create -v ~/Music:/Music:ro --network host --name MinimTest minimworld/minimserver:2.2-arm64

After creating the container, I clicked the Run button in Docker desktop. Selecting the Network tab in Inspect shows that host networking is enabled but MInimServer is not visible on the local network.

This docker create command works on Linux systems and I am not sure why it doesn't work on macOS.
