Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Kitemagic
This is a simple workaround to get Kitematic working on macOS without VirtualBox.
I tested it with Dinghy via Parallels Desktop. Just make sure your machine is called default.
It's a good solution until Kitematic#231 is resolved.
How it works
On macOS, if you're not using Docker for Mac, Kitematic checks for a VirtualBox installation.
This simply stubs VirtualBox to return the data that Kitematic expects, so it passes the setup stage and contiues to use Docker Machine as normal.
Installation
- Make sure VirtualBox is not installed ;)
- Ensure you have a Docker Machine running called
default(docker-machine ls). - Clone the repo or download
kitemagic.sh. sh kitemagic.sh- Open Kitematic.
