HRO Docker

We prepared a Docker image with everything needed for this course. The instructions on how to use it can be found here. We provide a Python script to make things easier for you, so you basically only need to install Docker and run the script on our GitLab.

Steps

Native vs VNC version

The provided Docker image can work in two modes: native and VNC.

  • Native version if suitable only for GNU/Linux systems (the main reason is the difference between docker-engine and docker-desktop).
    • using this version will make all applications usable on your system natively as if you would install them. If you have Linux, then this is a way to go for you
    • Install docker-engine
  • On Windows and Mac, there is no docker-engine and system variables include work differently. So, you need to use VNC version of the image. You can enable it by using -vnc switch when using Python deployment script, or by calling vnc command in the Docker enviroment. After that, you need to run start-vnc-session.sh and open http://localhost:6080 in your browser.
