## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Rancher Machine is Rancher's fork of Docker Machine, kept for provisioning and managing Docker hosts as part of Rancher-oriented workflows.

### Projektgeschichte

The official README identifies Rancher Machine as a fork of Docker Machine and describes Machine as software for creating Docker hosts on a computer, cloud providers, or inside a data center, then configuring the Docker client to talk to them.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

Rancher states that the project is intended to be embedded and executed by the full Rancher product, while standalone CLI functionality remains available but is no longer the primary human-facing focus.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The CLI creates and manages machines, stores per-machine host configuration under the Machine storage path, and preserves Docker Machine-style commands for environments that still need machine provisioning from scripts, Terraform, or Rancher components.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

For package maintainers, rancher-machine is notable as a downstream-maintained Docker Machine lineage package: the binary name and storage paths remain familiar, while releases and branches track Rancher consumption rather than Docker's old release stream.

### Zeitleiste

- 2015: Docker Machine-era storage conventions such as ~/.docker/machine became part of the tool lineage.
- 2025-07-18: The upstream Docker Machine repository was archived, increasing the relevance of maintained forks.
- 2026-07-02: Rancher Machine latest GitHub release listed as v0.15.0-rancher137.2.

### Related projects

- Docker Machine is the upstream project lineage.
- Rancher consumes Rancher Machine from its release branches and tags.
- Docker Engine hosts are the managed targets created by Machine.
