## 安装

```sh
sudo av install brew:docker-machine
```

## 代理安全回答

docker-machine provisions and manages Docker hosts and credentials.

- **凭据访问:** Reads machine certificates, SSH keys, and Docker host credentials.
- **远程变更:** Can create, remove, start, stop, and configure Docker hosts.
- **发布/制品风险:** Can expose or replace infrastructure used for container workloads.
- **推荐控制:** Gate create, rm, regenerate-certs, env, and host mutation commands.
- **代理使用指南:** Allow inspect/status; require approval for host creation, deletion, and credential export.

## 项目历史与用法

Docker Machine is the CLI that automated creation of Docker hosts on local hypervisors, cloud providers, and private infrastructure. It belongs to the pre-Docker-Desktop and pre-managed-Kubernetes period of Docker tooling, when creating a VM, installing Docker Engine, and pointing the local docker client at it were routine development and CI tasks.

### 项目历史

The original Docker Machine README describes a tool that creates servers, installs Docker on them, and configures the Docker client to talk to those hosts. It supported local VM drivers such as VirtualBox and cloud drivers such as DigitalOcean, with an extension model for third-party driver plugins.

The packaged Homebrew line follows GitLab's fork. GitLab states that the fork exists to fix critical bugs for the GitLab Runner Docker Machine executor after Docker deprecated Docker Machine on 2021-09-27. GitLab also states that it does not plan new features, and that maintenance is limited to critical bug fixes, CI execution reliability, and cost-impacting issues.

### 采用历史

Docker Machine was widely adopted because it gave the Docker CLI a repeatable way to target disposable local and cloud hosts before Docker Desktop, Docker contexts, managed container platforms, and autoscaling CI runners became the dominant workflows. Its driver-plugin model let vendors and community maintainers ship provider support outside the core binary.

The GitLab fork preserved Docker Machine for GitLab Runner's docker+machine autoscaling executor. GitLab's documentation points users toward its newer autoscaling solution, generally available from GitLab 17.1, and says the Docker Machine fork will be supported only until GitLab 20.2 in May 2027.

### 使用方式

Typical usage is docker-machine create with a local or cloud driver, docker-machine ls to inspect hosts, docker-machine env to export Docker client environment variables, and docker-machine rm to remove a host. The tool also stores per-machine TLS material under ~/.docker/machine so the client can securely reach remote Docker daemons.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Docker Machine is package-nerd significant because it turned a messy cross-provider bootstrap workflow into one installable CLI plus plugin binaries. Its later life as a maintained GitLab fork is also instructive: package managers can keep legacy automation alive long after the original upstream project leaves the center of the ecosystem.

### 时间线

- Docker Machine era: The upstream project standardized docker-machine create, env, ls, and driver plugins for Docker hosts.
- 2021-09-27: GitLab records Docker Machine as deprecated by Docker.
- GitLab fork era: GitLab maintains a fork for critical fixes needed by the GitLab Runner Docker Machine executor.
- GitLab 17.1: GitLab's replacement autoscaling solution is generally available.
- May 2027: GitLab plans support for its Docker Machine fork until GitLab 20.2.
