# How to use
### There are 3 images: **latest**, **auto** and **naked**.
2021-03-02 18:20:09 +08:00
`sickcodes/docker-osx:latest` - [I want to try it out. ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#quick-start-large-pre-made-image )
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
2021-03-02 18:20:09 +08:00
`sickcodes/docker-osx:latest` - [I want to use Docker-OSX to develop/secure Apps in Xcode (sign into Xcode, Transporter) ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#basic-quick-start-docker-osx )
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
`sickcodes/docker-osx:naked` - [I want to use Docker-OSX in CI/CD (sign into Xcode, Transporter) ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#fully-headless-using-my-own-image-for-cicd )
Create your personal image using `:latest` . And then pull your image out. And then use duplicate that image again & again for use in `:naked` .
`sickcodes/docker-osx:auto` - [I want to boot into command line only. (compile software, homebrew headless). ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#pre-built-image-arbitrary-command-line-arguments )
`sickcodes/docker-osx:naked` - [I need iMessage/iCloud for security research. ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#serial-numbers )
#### I need a screen.
**KEEP** these two lines are in your command. Works in ANY of the machines:
```dockerfile
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
```
#### I need headless.
**REMOVE** these two lines from ANY of the machines:
```dockerfile
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
```
#### I have used it already, and want to copy this image.
Use `docker commit` , copy the ID, and then `docker start ID`
**OR**
[Pull out the .img file ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#backup-the-disk-wheres-my-disk ), and then use that [.img file with :naked ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#quick-start-own-image-naked-container-image )

# Quick Start Large Pre-Made Image
Current large image size: 17.5GB
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
This starts a container with an existing installation. This special auto image was made by @sickcodes:
2021-01-27 02:14:29 +08:00
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
- SSH enabled
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
- username is `user`
- password is `alpine`
- auto-updates off
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
You will need around *50GB* of space to run this image: half for the base image + half for your runtime image.
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
If you run out of space, you can delete all your old Docker images/history/cache by simply deleting `/var/lib/docker` , and restarting `dockerd` .
2021-01-27 02:14:29 +08:00
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
```bash
2021-01-28 03:02:10 +08:00
docker pull sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
2021-02-26 17:25:40 +08:00
# boot directly into a real OSX shell with no display (Xvfb) [HEADLESS]
2021-01-25 00:30:59 +08:00
docker run -it \
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
# Wait 2-3 minutes until you drop into the shell.
```
2021-02-08 01:27:02 +08:00
```bash
docker pull sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
2021-02-26 17:25:40 +08:00
# boot directly into a real OSX shell with a visual display [NOT HEADLESS]
2021-02-08 01:27:02 +08:00
docker run -it \

### Pre-built Image + Arbitrary Command Line Arguments.
2021-02-08 01:27:02 +08:00
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
```bash
2021-02-08 01:27:02 +08:00
docker pull sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
# boot to OSX shell + display + specify commands to run inside OSX!
2021-01-25 00:30:59 +08:00
docker run -it \
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
2021-02-01 04:05:31 +08:00
-e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"pwd && uname -a\"" \
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
# Boots in a minute or two!
2021-01-28 03:02:10 +08:00
```
### Restart an auto container
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
Containers that use `sickcodes/docker-osx:auto` can be stopped at started.
2021-01-28 03:02:10 +08:00
```bash
# find last container
docker ps -a
# docker start old container with -i for interactive
docker start -i containerid
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
```
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
# Quick Start Own Image (naked container image)
2021-01-05 21:15:44 +08:00
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
This is my favourite container. You can supply an existing disk image as a docker command line argument.
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
2021-02-08 03:25:59 +08:00
Supply your own local image with `-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image"` and use `sickcodes/docker-osx:naked`
- Naked image is for booting any existing .img file.
2021-02-25 22:03:06 +08:00
- By default, this image has a variable called `NOPICKER` which is `"true"` . This skips the disk selection menu. Use `-e NOPICKER=false` or any other string than the word `true` to enter the boot menu. This lets you use other disks instead of skipping the boot menu, e.g. recovery disk or disk utility.
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
```bash
2021-01-28 03:02:10 +08:00
docker pull sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
# run your own image + SSH
2021-02-26 17:25:40 +08:00
# change mac_hdd_ng.img
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
2021-02-08 03:25:59 +08:00
# run local copy of the auto image + SSH + Boot menu
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng_auto.img:/image" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e "NOPICKER=false" \
sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00
```
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
### Fully Headless, using my own image, for CI/CD
2021-01-24 20:47:19 +08:00

# Requirements: KVM on the host
2020-06-05 08:27:49 +08:00
Need to turn on hardware virtualization in your BIOS, very easy to do.
2020-10-07 00:42:34 +08:00
Then have QEMU on the host if you haven't already

1. You can now pull the `.img` file out of the container, which is stored in `/var/lib/docker` , and supply it as a runtime argument to the `:naked` Docker image. See above.
2. This is for when you want to run the SAME container again later.
2020-06-05 12:11:30 +08:00
If you don't run this you will have a new image every time.

# How to Forward Additional Ports from the guest.
This is how it visually looks:
`host:10023 <-> 10023:container:10023 <-> 80:guest`
```bash
On the host
```bash
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-e ADDITIONAL_PORTS='hostfwd=tcp::10023-:80,' \
-p 10023:10023 \
sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
```
Inside the container:
```bash
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
brew install nginx
sudo sed -i -e 's/8080/80/' /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.confcd
# sudo nginx -s stop
sudo nginx
```
nginx should appear on the host at port 10023.
You can string multiple statements, for example:
```bash
-e ADDITIONAL_PORTS='hostfwd=tcp::10023-:80,hostfwd=tcp::10043-:443,'
-p 10023:10023 \
-p 10043:10043 \
```

# How to Enable Network Forwarding
Allow ipv4 forwarding for bridged networking connections:
This is not required for LOCAL installations and may cause containers behind [VPN's to leak host IP ](https://sick.codes/cve-2020-15590/ ).
If you are connecting to a REMOTE Docker-OSX, e.g. a "Mac Mini" in a datacenter, then this may boost networking:
2020-06-05 05:42:21 +08:00
2020-09-20 16:49:12 +08:00
```bash
2020-10-07 00:42:34 +08:00
# enable for current session
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
2020-06-05 05:42:21 +08:00

# OR
# sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward <<< 1
# enable permanently
sudo touch /etc/sysctl.conf
sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf < < EOF
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

# OR edit manually

2021-02-21 19:02:41 +08:00
The easiest way to clean out your entire Docker (ALL images, layers, and containers) is to `sudo rm -rf /var/lib/docker`
2020-10-07 00:42:34 +08:00
This is useful for getting disk space back.

## How to reduce the size of the image
* Start up the container as usual, and remove unnecessary files. A useful way
to do this is to use `du -sh *` starting from the `/` directory, and find
large directories where files can be removed. E.g. unnecessary cached files,
Xcode platforms, etc.
* Once you are satisfied with the amount of free space, enable trim with `sudo trimforce enable` , and reboot.
* Zero out the empty space on the disk with `dd if=/dev/zero of=./empty && rm -f empty`
* Shut down the VM and copy out the qcow image with `docker cp stoppedcontainer:/home/arch/OSX-KVM/mac_hdd_ng.img .`
* Run `qemu-img check -r all mac_hdd_ng.img` to fix any errors.
* Run `qemu-img convert -O qcow2 mac_hdd_ng.img deduped.img` and check for errors again
2021-02-08 08:58:07 +08:00
* OPTIONAL: Run `qemu-img convert -c -O qcow2 deduped.img compressed.img` to further compress the image. This may reduce the runtime speed though, but it should reduce the size by roughly 25%.
2020-12-17 02:18:43 +08:00
* Check for errors again, and build a fresh docker image. E.g. with this Dockerfile
```
FROM sickcodes/docker-osx
USER arch
COPY --chown=arch ./deduped.img /home/arch/OSX-KVM/mac_hdd_ng.img
```
## How to run in headless mode
First make sure [autoboot is enabled ](#autoboot-into-osx-after-youve-installed-everything )
Next, you will want to set up SSH to be automatically started.
```bash
sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin on
```
Make sure to commit the new docker image and save it, or rebuild as described in the [section on reducing disk space ](#how-to-reduce-the-size-of-the-image ).
Then run it with these arguments.
```bash
# Run with the -nographic flag, and enable a telnet interface
docker run \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e EXTRA="-monitor telnet::45454,server,nowait -nographic -serial null" \
mycustomimage
```
Optionally, you can enable the SPICE protocol, which allows you to use `remote-viewer` to access it rather than VNC.
Note: `-disable-ticketing` will allow unauthenticated access to the VM. See the [spice manual ](https://www.spice-space.org/spice-user-manual.html ) for help setting up authenticated access ("Ticketing").
```bash
docker run \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e EXTRA="-monitor telnet::45454,server,nowait -nographic -serial null -spice disable-ticketing,port=3001" \
mycustomimage
```
Then simply do `remote-viewer spice://localhost:3001` and add `--spice-debug` for debugging.

### This example generates a specific set of serial numbers at runtime, with your existing image, at 1000x1000 display resolution.
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
```bash
2021-03-10 06:06:35 +08:00
# run an existing image in current directory, with a screen, with SSH, with nopicker.
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
stat mac_hdd_ng.img # make sure you have an image if you're using :naked
docker run -it \
2021-03-10 06:06:35 +08:00
-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
--device /dev/kvm \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \

-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e DEVICE_MODEL="iMacPro1,1" \

If you want to generate serial numbers, either make them at runtime using
` -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \`
Or you can generate them inside the `./custom` folder. And then use:
```bash
-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e SERIAL="" \
-e BOARD_SERIAL="" \
-e UUID="" \
-e MAC_ADDRESS="" \
```
#### Persistence from generating serial numbers is obviously ideal:
```bash
stat mac_hdd_ng_testing.img
touch ./output.env
2021-03-10 06:06:35 +08:00
# generate fresh random serial numbers, with a screen, using your own image, and save env file with your new serial numbers for later.
2021-02-26 20:27:37 +08:00
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-p 50922:10022 \
-e NOPICKER=true \
-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e DEVICE_MODEL="iMacPro1,1" \
-v "${PWD}/output.env:/env" \
-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng_testing.img:/image" \
sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
```
To use iMessage or iCloud you need to change `5` values.
`SERIAL`
`BOARD_SERIAL`
`UUID`
`MAC_ADDRESS`
_`ROM` is just the lowercased mac address, without `:` between each word._
You can tell the container to generate them for you using `-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true`
Or tell the container to use specific ones using `-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true`
```bash
-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e DEVICE_MODEL="iMacPro1,1" \
-e SERIAL="C02TW0WAHX87" \
-e BOARD_SERIAL="C027251024NJG36UE" \
-e UUID="5CCB366D-9118-4C61-A00A-E5BAF3BED451" \
-e MAC_ADDRESS="A8:5C:2C:9A:46:2F" \
```
### Where do you get the serial numbers?
```bash
apt install libguestfs -y
pacman -S libguestfs
yum install libguestfs -y
```
Inside the `./custom` folder you will find `4` scripts.
- `config-nopicker-custom.plist`
- `opencore-image-ng.sh`
These two files are from OSX-KVM.
You don't need to touch these two files.
The config.plist has 5 values replaced with placeholders. [Click here to see those values for no reason. ](https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/blob/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist#L705 )
- `generate-unique-machine-values.sh`
This script will generate serial numbers, with Mac Addresses, plus output to CSV/TSV, plus make a `bootdisk image` .
You can create hundreds, `./custom/generate-unique-machine-values.sh --help`
```bash
./custom/generate-unique-machine-values.sh \
--count 1 \
--tsv ./serial.tsv \
--bootdisks \
--output-bootdisk OpenCore.qcow2 \
--output-env source.env.sh
```
Or if you have some specific serial numbers...
- `generate-specific-bootdisk.sh`
```bash
generate-specific-bootdisk.sh \
--model "${DEVICE_MODEL}" \
--serial "${SERIAL}" \
--board-serial "${BOARD_SERIAL}" \
--uuid "${UUID}" \
--mac-address "${MAC_ADDRESS}" \
--output-bootdisk OpenCore-nopicker.qcow2
```

# Change Resolution Docker-OSX - change resolution OpenCore OSX-KVM
The display resolution is controlled by this line:
https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/blob/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist#L819
Instead of mounting that disk, Docker-OSX will generate a new `OpenCore.qcow2` by using this one cool trick:
```bash
-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
-e WIDTH=800 \
-e HEIGHT=600 \
```
To use `WIDTH` /`HEIGHT`, you must use with either `-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true` or `-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true` .
It will take around 30 seconds longer to boot because it needs to make a new boot partition using `libguestfs` .
```bash
-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e WIDTH=1920 \
-e HEIGHT=1080 \
-e SERIAL="" \
-e BOARD_SERIAL="" \
-e UUID="" \
-e MAC_ADDRESS="" \
```
## Change Docker-OSX Resolution Examples
```bash
# using an image in your current directory
stat mac_hdd_ng.img
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng.img:/image" \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true \
-e DEVICE_MODEL="iMacPro1,1" \
-e SERIAL="C02TW0WAHX87" \
-e BOARD_SERIAL="C027251024NJG36UE" \
-e UUID="5CCB366D-9118-4C61-A00A-E5BAF3BED451" \
-e MAC_ADDRESS="A8:5C:2C:9A:46:2F" \
-e MASTER_PLIST_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist \
-e WIDTH=1600 \
-e HEIGHT=900 \
sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
```
```bash
# generating random serial numbers, using the DIY installer, along with the screen resolution changes.
docker run -it \
--device /dev/kvm \
-p 50922:10022 \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
-e WIDTH=800 \
-e HEIGHT=600 \
sickcodes/docker-osx:latest
```
Here's a few other resolutions! If you resolution is invalid, it will default to 800x600.
```
-e WIDTH=800 \
-e HEIGHT=600 \
```
```
-e WIDTH=1280 \
-e HEIGHT=768 \
```
```
-e WIDTH=1600 \
-e HEIGHT=900 \
```
```
-e WIDTH=1920 \
-e HEIGHT=1080 \
```
```
-e WIDTH=2560 \
-e HEIGHT=1600 \
```

# Allow USB passthrough
The simplest way to do this is the following:
First of all, in order to do this, QEMU must be started as root. It is also potentially possible to do this by changing the permissions of the device in the container.
See [here ](https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/qemu-usb-permissions-744557/#post3628691 ).
For example, create a new Dockerfile with the following
```bash
FROM sickcodes/docker-osx
USER arch
RUN sed -i -e s/exec\ qemu/exec\ sudo\ qemu/ ./Launch.sh
COPY --chown=arch ./new_image.img /home/arch/OSX-KVM/mac_hdd_ng.img
```
Where `new_image.img` is the qcow2 image you extracted. Then rebuild with `docker build .`
Find out the bus and port numbers of your USB device which you want to pass through to the VM.
```bash
lsusb -t
/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/6p, 5000M
/: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/12p, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 5, If 0, Class=Human Interface Device, Driver=usbhid, 12M
|__ Port 2: Dev 5, If 1, Class=Chip/SmartCard, Driver=, 12M
|__ Port 3: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Wireless, Driver=, 12M
|__ Port 3: Dev 2, If 1, Class=Wireless, Driver=, 12M
|__ Port 5: Dev 3, If 0, Class=Video, Driver=uvcvideo, 480M
|__ Port 5: Dev 3, If 1, Class=Video, Driver=uvcvideo, 480M
```
In this example, we want to pass through a smartcard device. The device we want is on bus 1 and port 2.
There may also be differences if your device is usb 2.0 (ehci) vs usb 3.0 (xhci).
See [here ](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/452946/101044 ) for more details.
```bash
# hostbus and hostport correspond to the numbers from lsusb
# runs in privileged mode to enable access to the usb devices.
docker run \
--privileged \
--device /dev/kvm \
-e RAM=4 \
-p 50922:10022 \
-e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
-e EXTRA="-device virtio-serial-pci -device usb-host,hostbus=1,hostport=2" \
mycustomimage
```
You should see the device show up when you do `system_profiler SPUSBDataType` in the MacOS shell.
2020-12-17 02:24:57 +08:00
Important Note: this will cause the host system to lose access to the USB device while the VM is running!

## What is `${DISPLAY:-:0.0}`?
`$DISPLAY` is the shell variable that refers to your X11 display server.
`${DISPLAY}` is the same, but allows you to join variables like this:
- e.g. `${DISPLAY}_${DISPLAY}` would print `:0.0_:0.0`
- e.g. `$DISPLAY_$DISPLAY` would print `:0.0`
...because `$DISPLAY_` is not `$DISPLAY`
`${variable:-fallback}` allows you to set a "fallback" variable to be substituted if `$variable` is not set.
You can also use `${variable:=fallback}` to set that variable (in your current terminal).
In Docker-OSX, we assume, `:0.0` is your default `$DISPLAY` variable.
You can see what yours is
```bash
echo $DISPLAY
```
Hence, `${DISPLAY:-:0.0}` will use whatever variable your X11 server has set for you, else `:0.0`
2020-11-28 22:12:44 +08:00
## What is `-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix`?
`-v` is a Docker command-line option that lets you pass a volume to the container.
The directory that we are letting the Docker container use is a X server display socket.
`/tmp/.X11-unix`
If we let the Docker container use the same display socket as our own environment, then any applications you run inside the Docker container will show up on your screen too! [https://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/RELNOTES5.html ](https://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/RELNOTES5.html )
