I followed your instruction to install docker-osx-dev and I had an error

anyone had some suggestion or had this issues?

When you run docker-osx-dev install, it's supposed to install greadlink. It looks like that didn't happen. Did you see an error?

As a workaround, you can install it yourself (brew install greadlink).

Sorry, greadlink is part of coreutils, so the command should be brew install coreutils.

@brikis98 yes I missed greadlink in package coretils and fswatch, now it's work perfect. Thanks.
