Eclipse '2020-06' IDE Docker Container + OpenJDK Java 8 (1.8.0_252) JDK + Maven 3.6 + Python 3.6/2.7 + pip 19 + node 12 + npm 6 + Gradle 5.6 + X11 (Desktop)

NOTE: This docker default is providing latest Eclipse '2020-06' (Latest) instead of Photon, Oxygen and you can change it to build other versions using '.env' file !!!

Components

  • Eclipse '2020-06' JEE version (you can change if by change Dockerfile)
  • Base Components (e.g., Maven, Java, NodeJS, etc.)

Run (recommended for easy-start)

Image is pulling from openkbs/eclipse-photon-docker

./run.sh

Build

You can build your own image locally. Note that the default build docker is "photon" version. If you want to build older Eclipse like "oxygen", you can following instruction in next section

./build.sh

Build (Older Eclipse, e.g. Photon, Oxygen)

Two ways (at least) to build:

Way-1 (Recommended):

If you use command line "'./build.sh'", you can modify "'./.env' (old filename ./docker.env)" file and then, run "./build.sh" to build image

## -- Eclipse versions: photon, oxygen, etc.: -- ##
ECLIPSE_VERSION=photon
or
ECLIPSE_VERSION=oxygen

Then,

./build/sh
Way-2:

Modify the line in './Dockefile' as below if you use 'docker-compose' or Openshift CI/CD. That is, you are not using command line './build.sh' to build container image.

## -- Eclipse versions: photon, oxygen, etc.: -- ##
ENV ECLIPSE_VERSION=${ECLIPSE_VERSION:-photon}
or
ENV ECLIPSE_VERSION=${ECLIPSE_VERSION:-oxygen}

Then,

docker-compose up -d 

Configurations (Optional)

If you run "./run.sh" instead of "docker-compose up", you don't have to do anything as below.

  • The container uses a default "/workspace" folder.
  • The script "./run.sh" will re-use or create the local folder in your $HOME directory with the path below to map into the docker's internal "/workspace" folder.
$HOME/data_docker/eclipse-photon-docker/workspace

The above configuration will ensure all your projects created in the container's "/workspace" being "persistent" in your local folder, "$HOME/data_docker/eclipse-photon-docker/workspace", for your repetitive restart docker container.

Create Customized Volume Mapping for "docker-compose"

You can create your own customzied host file mapping, e.g.

mkdir -p <my_host_directory>/.eclipse 
mkdir -p <my_host_directory>/eclipse-workspace

Then, run docker-comp

docker-compose up -d

Distributed Storage

This project provides simple host volumes. For using more advanced storage solutions, there are a few distributed cluster storage options available, e.g., Lustre (popular in HPC), GlusterFS, Ceph, etc.

Other possible Issues

You might see the warning message or something similar in the launching xterm console like below, you can just ignore it. I googled around and some blogs just suggested to ignore since the IDE is still functional ok.

** (eclipse:1): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-wrKH8o5rny: Connection refused
