description: Set environment variables on a machine
keywords: machine, env, subcommand
title: docker-machine env
---
Set environment variables to dictate that `docker` should run a command against
a particular machine.
```bash
$ docker-machine env --help
Usage: docker-machine env [OPTIONS] [arg...]
Display the commands to set up the environment for the Docker client
Description:
Argument is a machine name.
Options:
--swarm Display the Swarm config instead of the Docker daemon
--shell Force environment to be configured for a specified shell: [fish, cmd, powershell, tcsh], default is sh/bash
--unset, -u Unset variables instead of setting them
--no-proxy Add machine IP to NO_PROXY environment variable
```
`docker-machine env machinename` prints out `export` commands which can be
run in a subshell. Running `docker-machine env -u` prints `unset` commands
which reverse this effect.
```bash
$ env | grep DOCKER
$ eval "$(docker-machine env dev)"
$ env | grep DOCKER
DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.99.101:2376
DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/Users/nathanleclaire/.docker/machines/.client
DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME=dev
$ # If you run a docker command, now it runs against that host.
$ eval "$(docker-machine env -u)"
$ env | grep DOCKER
$ # The environment variables have been unset.
```
The output described above is intended for the shells `bash` and `zsh` (if
you're not sure which shell you're using, there's a very good possibility that
it's `bash`). However, these are not the only shells which Docker Machine
supports. Docker Machine detects the shells available in your environment and lists them.
Docker supports `bash`, `cmd`, `powershell`, and `emacs`.
If you are using `fish` and the `SHELL` environment variable is correctly set to
the path where `fish` is located, `docker-machine env name` prints out the
values in the format which `fish` expects:
```fish
set -x DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY 1;
set -x DOCKER_CERT_PATH "/Users/nathanleclaire/.docker/machine/machines/overlay";
set -x DOCKER_HOST tcp://192.168.99.102:2376;
set -x DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME overlay
# Run this command to configure your shell:
# eval "$(docker-machine env overlay)"
```
If you are on Windows and using either PowerShell or `cmd.exe`, `docker-machine env`
Docker Machine should now detect your shell automatically. If the automatic detection does not work, you
can still override it using the `--shell` flag for `docker-machine env`.
For PowerShell:
```bash
$ docker-machine.exe env --shell powershell dev
$Env:DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY = "1"
$Env:DOCKER_HOST = "tcp://192.168.99.101:2376"
$Env:DOCKER_CERT_PATH = "C:\Users\captain\.docker\machine\machines\dev"
$Env:DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME = "dev"
# Run this command to configure your shell:
# docker-machine.exe env --shell=powershell dev | Invoke-Expression
```
For `cmd.exe`:
```bash
$ docker-machine.exe env --shell cmd dev
set DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
set DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.99.101:2376
set DOCKER_CERT_PATH=C:\Users\captain\.docker\machine\machines\dev
set DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME=dev
# Run this command to configure your shell: copy and paste the above values into your command prompt
```
>**Tip:** See also, how to [unset environment variables in the current shell](../get-started.md#unset-environment-variables-in-the-current-shell).
## Excluding the created machine from proxies
The env command supports a `--no-proxy` flag which ensures that the created
machine's IP address is added to the [`NO_PROXY`/`no_proxy` environment
variable](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Proxy_settings).
This is useful when using `docker-machine` with a local VM provider, such as
`virtualbox` or `vmwarefusion`, in network environments where an HTTP proxy is
required for internet access.
```bash
$ docker-machine env --no-proxy default
export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY="1"
export DOCKER_HOST="tcp://192.168.99.104:2376"
export DOCKER_CERT_PATH="/Users/databus23/.docker/machine/certs"
export DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME="default"
export NO_PROXY="192.168.99.104"
# Run this command to configure your shell:
# eval "$(docker-machine env default)"
```

created daemon using the `--engine-env` flag for
[`docker-machine create`](create.md#specifying-configuration-options-for-the-created-docker-engine).
