itscaro/graphlab repository overview

⁠Containerised scientific Python workstation

This container is based on

• ipython/scipystack⁠)
• rjw57/jupyter⁠)

The container exposes a single port which the Jupyter notebook server runs on. Launch the container with an incantation similar to the following:

$ docker run -i -p 8888:8888/tcp -e GRAPHLAB_VERSION "" -e GRAPHLAB_EMAIL "" -e GRAPHLAB_LICENSE "" itscaro/graphlab

By default the Jupyter notebook runs as a user which is given sudo access inside the container. NOTE THAT HAVING ROOT IN THE CONTAINER SHOULD BE VIEWED AS HAVING ROOT ON THE HOST. The user logon name and id can be configured by setting the USER and USER_UID environment variables. For example, to launch the container for the current user:

$ docker run -i -p 8888:8888/tcp -e USER -e USER_UID=$(id -u) -e GRAPHLAB_VERSION "" -e GRAPHLAB_EMAIL "" -e GRAPHLAB_LICENSE "" itscaro/graphlab

⁠Virtual machine using Vagrant

If you have Vagrant installed, the provided Vagrant file can be used to provision a virtual machine running the container.
