Docker Machine OSX Autostart

This is a simple launchd config that will start your default docker-machine on startup. You can customize the machine that is started by updating lines 11 and 16 with the correct machine name.

Install

1. Copy the file com.docker.machine.default.plist below to ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.docker.machine.default.plist.
2. Run the following in a terminal: launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.docker.machine.default.plist
3. Profit!

com.docker.machine.default.plist
