"Illegal variable name" error while I'm trying to install and configure Docker on FreeBSD

Hello.

I'm a new FreeBSD user, I'm looking inside the FreeBSD ecosystem for the tools that usually I use in Linux. At the moment I'm trying to install and configure docker and I found this tutorial :

https://linuxhint.com/install-docker-freebsd/

and I've followed up until the end. Everything went good until the last command that gives me an error message :

Code: 
Illegal variable name.

# docker images
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

He says : "Copy-paste this command to the .bashrc/.zshrc file, and you’re all set to use docker on FreeBSD"

Code: 
eval "$(docker-machine env default)"

Good. In my system I haven't found any .bashrc or .zshrc file. Two files can be a good place where add the command :

1) /home/zioma/.cshrc

and

2) /home/zioma/.xinitrc

Adding eval "$(docker-machine env default)" on the first one I get the following error :

Code: 
Illegal variable name.

# docker images
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

Adding eval "$(docker-machine env default)" on the second one I get the following error :

Code: 
# docker images
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

How can I fix these errors ?
 
.cshrc is for the csh(1) which uses a different syntax for variables.

Try setting it in ${HOME}/.shrc and using /bin/sh as the shell.
 
ok. I don't see the previous error "illegal variable name",but docker is still not able to connect,as u can see below :

# docker images
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
 
It seems broken even if I'm not root :
Code: 
[zioma@lozioma ~]$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox default
