Codified docker-machine via Vagrant on Windows for those who need fine-grained configurations enabling versioning and automation which is not provided via docker-machine.

Just using docker-machine do not support custom ip, and custom cpu and/or memory is possible but user need to repeatingly type command like:

docker-machine create machine-vbox --virtualbox-cpu-count "8" --virtualbox-memory "8192"

clone this repo, and declare configrations like following:

Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "joelhandwell/dockerhost"
  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |v|
    v.memory = 4096
    v.cpus = 4
  end
  config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", disabled: true
  config.vm.synced_folder "C:/Users", "/c/Users"
  config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.2.193"
end

create.bat

docker-machine create --driver generic --generic-ip-address=192.168.2.193 --generic-ssh-user=vagrant --generic-ssh-key=vagrant default

and run:

vagrant up
create
