Multiple emulator in same docker container #14

Hi Author,

it is possible to create several avd in the docker container manually and start them? I tried the command in the entrypoint.sh, but failed. echo "no" | /usr/local/android-sdk/tools/android create avd -f -n test2 -t ${EMULATOR} --abi default/${ARCH} echo "no" | /usr/local/android-sdk/tools/emulator64-${EMU} -avd test2 -noaudio -no-window -gpu off -verbose -qemu -usbdevice tablet -vnc :0

Technically its possible, but practically I think better to run second container. Each AVD will consume additional space and container size will grow significantly. Why do you want to run 2 AVDs?

Hi Author, Thank you for your reply. I wonder if we can control the number of the emulator when executing "docker run".

That should be possible, but indeed the easiest and most flexible way to do that would be to run a separate docker image for every emulator. You also need to keep in mind that every emulator require a separate TCP port which need to be exposed. To make it fully automated you will to run some discovery service scanning ports on you running images and creating a mapping.

I think I will close this issue, because I think it's more easy to run multiple containers.

OK, Thank you author.
