QGIS 3.4 and 3.6 Desktop running on Docker

QGIS 3.x Desktop running on Docker

A full-fledge QGIS 3.x running on Docker.

Everything supported in the standard QGIS 3.x is ready out of the box: 3D views, Google Maps/Sat/Terrain integration, OSM, plugins etc. Preferences are retained across sessions, and the integration with your physical computer is seamless.

Automated build on Docker Hub for maximum reliability.

Build your own

If you instead feel like customizing something, you can build the image locally:

git clone https://github.com/jancelin/qgis_desktop_docker.git
cd qgis_desktop_docker

#(Edit the Dockerfile or what you need)
. ./build

sh qgis_run.sh 

Notes

There are three exposed directories:

1. /mnt/ext_home/ is mapped to your home directory (i.e. "~")
2. /root/qgis34-files is the working files directory and is mapped to your computer's ~/qgis34-files
3. /root/.local (the profile/preferences directory) maps to your computer's ~/.qgis34-docker. This allows to retain preferences, histroy, etc across different sessions.

Troubleshooting

Since the X11-unix is mapped directly (by the qgis_run.sh script), there should be no need to run the insecure xhost + command. However, should you get errors accessing the display, consider running:

xhost +
