Docker daemon log for Docker for Mac

Question

This is similar to Where is the Docker daemon log?. But more for Docker Desktop for Mac.

Where can I find the daemon log for Docker Desktop for Mac?

Answer 1

• Docker For Mac (Beta) - ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/com.docker.driver.amd64-linux/log/docker.log

Answer 2

For future travellers, it's no longer available ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/com.docker.driver.amd64-linux/log/docker.log.

As per the new documentation, you can need to execute the following:

$ pred='process matches ".*(ocker|vpnkit).*"
  || (process in {"taskgated-helper", "launchservicesd", "kernel"} && eventMessage contains[c] "docker")'
$ /usr/bin/log stream --style syslog --level=debug --color=always --predicate "$pred"
