Lem with SDL2? #1

Open vindarel opened 1 year ago

vindarel commented 1 year ago

Hi,

This Docker image runs the ncurses version of Lem.

ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/local/bin/lem-ncurses"]

It would be awesome (and practical for me) if it could run the new SDL2 version.

How is it possible to run a graphical application inside the Docker?

Probably it will require to forward XWindow socket or port into a docker container?

Almost forgot about this "detail". I don't know an actual app that does it, but I have read here and there that it is doable.

A lem 2.0 update would be nice already :D

yes.

# docker-compose
version: "3"

services:
  app:
    image: my-app:latest
    build: .
    environment:
      - DISPLAY=${DISPLAY}
    volumes:
      - /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix
    network_mode: host

and an example image with Firefox.

$ sudo docker run --net=host --env="DISPLAY" --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority:rw" android-studio

docker run [--rm [-it]|-d] \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-e DISPLAY \
imagem [cmd]

with a hack for MacOS (2016).

Maybe the best would be to ship an AppImage :thinking:
