Please try running brew install docker  This will install the Docker engine  which will require Docker-Machine    VirtualBox  to run on the Mac  If you want to install the newer Docker for Mac  which does not require virtualbox  you can install that through Homebrew s Cask  brew install --cask docker  open  Applications Docker app
