***************************
Host address alias on MacOS
***************************
In order for Xdebug to work on Docker for MacOS, the container needs a well known IP address
for its Xdebug remote host. This is achieved by adding an alias to the loopback device.

One-time alias
==============
In order to create this alias for testing purposes, which does not survive reboots, you can
issue the command manually with ``sudo`` or root privileges.
.. code-block:: bash
host> sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 10.254.254.254
Boot persistent alias
=====================
If you want to have this alias persistent across reboot, you need to download and enable a
``plist`` file:
.. code-block:: bash
# Download the plist into the correct location
host> sudo curl -o \
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.devilbox.docker_10254_alias.plist \
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devilbox/xdebug/master/osx/org.devilbox.docker_10254_alias.plist
# Enable without reboot
host> sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.devilbox.docker_10254_alias.plist
