Yes, I've seen it, but this example describes how to start nginx in docker-osx and get it from localhost. But I wanna to start server on Local host and get it from inside docker-osx. I got problem that server and docker-osx require the same port on host machine. If I started server on 10024, Docker cannot start with same port. And if docker starts first, then server can't start.

From inside the mac, you can reach 192.168.1.x naturally.

On host:
nginx will start on 80
ip addr will show all your IP's and bridges, which are localhost.

For me, I can visit the host on any of:

172.17.0.1
172.16.32.1
192.168.63.1
192.168.122.1
192.168.1.4

Yep, It works. Thanks, you. I had tried 127.0.0.1:3000 and localhost:3000, and it had not worked. But as you advice 172.17.. and 192.168 works now. Thanks again )
