System Setup

Using Docker

1. Follow the docker installation instructions for your host OS.
2. Make sure you post installation steps for linux, if you are on linux.
3. Make sure you fix docker's DNS settings if you are on a Miami University computer (or if you find later that you cannot access websites from within docker images)
4. From a terminal, start the docker image with the current directory mounted as /workspace and with port 8888 published to that you can access it from your host machine.

   $ docker run \
       -v ${PWD}:/workspace \
       -p 8888:8888 \
       jfemiani/ser627a:latest 

5. The previous command will show you which address to use, for example:

   http://localhost:8888/?token=3b442a9f5c9f40cac4b713d5d4e270cb62e46f4a4fa60bb1
   

   Copy that URL and paste it into the address bar of a browser.

NOTE: If you are using port 8888 for something else, try -p 8889:8888' instead. Just remember, if you do that then the URL that jupyter provides you will say 8888 and you must edit it to say 8889 in your browser's address bar.

From Scratch

1. Install Anaconda on your system
2. Follow the same steps as I show in the Dockerfile.
