When using a single VM of kubernetes its really handy to reuse the Docker daemon inside the VM; as this means you don't have to build on your host machine and push the image into a docker registry - you can just build inside the same docker daemon which speeds up local experiements.
When using a single VM of kubernetes its really handy to reuse the Docker daemon inside the VM; as this means you don't have to build on your host machine and push the image into a docker registry - you can just build inside the same docker daemon as minikube which speeds up local experiments.
To be able to work with the docker daemon on your mac/windows host type the following into your shell:
To be able to work with the docker daemon on your mac/linux host use the [docker-env command](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/minikube_docker-env.md) in your shell:
```
eval $(minikube docker-env)
```
you should now be able to use docker on the command line on your host mac/windows machine talking to the docker daemon inside the minikube VM:
