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
