# Remote-viewer on macOS 11

In macOS 11 (Big Sur) the [traditional solution](https://www.spice-space.org/osx-client.html) that has always been used to use remote-viewer has stopped working, so I have decided to look for an alternative. This is based on installing remote-viewer inside a Docker container.

### Requirements

- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/)

- [Xquartz](https://www.xquartz.org/)

### How to use?

You can use it by executing the following command in the terminal, changing ((((spice_proxy_file)))) for the file provided by Proxmox.

```bash

xhost + $(hostname)

docker run \

    --rm \

    -v ((((spice_proxy_file)))):/home/remoteviewer/download \

    -e DISPLAY=$(hostname):0 \

    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \

    domingoruiz/remote-viewer-macos11

```

If you use this regularly, it is best to create a function in the .zshrc file with the following code.

```bash

remote-viewer(){

        xhost + $(hostname)

        docker run \

            --rm \

            -v $1:/home/remoteviewer/download \

            -e DISPLAY=$(hostname):0 \

            -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \

            domingoruiz/remote-viewer-macos11

        rm $1

}

```

After that to open a virtual machine we have to simply execute this command. At first glance it is the same as the traditional command.

```bash

remote-viewer /Users/domingo/Downloads/download

```
