strands/lcas-docker repository overview

⁠L-CAS distro docker image(s)

Do run an interactive session in the fully installed STRANDS base system, simply make sure you have docker installed on your machine⁠, and then you can simply run

docker run -it --rm lcasuol/lcas-docker:xenial-base /bin/bash

to launch an interactive session.

⁠Running on a Linux host

If you want to run this with your local user and actually have the docker container access your X server, run something like:

docker run -it --rm \
    --user=`id -u` \
    --env="DISPLAY" \
    --workdir="/home/$USER" \
    --volume="/home/$USER:/home/$USER" \
    --volume="/etc/group:/etc/group:ro" \
    --volume="/etc/passwd:/etc/passwd:ro" \
    --volume="/etc/shadow:/etc/shadow:ro" \
    --volume="/etc/sudoers.d:/etc/sudoers.d:ro" \
    --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \
    lcasuol/lcas-docker:xenial-base /bin/bash

⁠Running on OSX/Windows

This is a useful guide for running X-enabled docker images on OSX: https://blog.bennycornelissen.nl/bwc-gui-apps-in-docker-on-osx/⁠

and here is a gist run this on a MAC: https://gist.github.com/marc-hanheide/d9b4bb6057665acf7524c7b79827f1c8⁠

Requirements:

• install docker on OSX: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/⁠
• create a docker machine: docker-machine create --driver virtualbox --virtualbox-memory 2048 docker-vm
• source docker-x.sh from https://gist.github.com/marc-hanheide/d9b4bb6057665acf7524c7b79827f1c8⁠
• run docker_run -it lcasuol/lcas-docker:xenial-base
