ARGoS in Docker

Portable robot simulation environment, using ARGoS. Built within docker containers & displayed via browser-based VNC (noVNC), ARGoS should now be accessable on all platforms.

Visit http://localhost:6080 on your browser of choice, to display the GUI.

[ Optional ] Customization

$ docker run \
    -e USER=doro \                  # Create a new user
    -e PASSWORD=password \          # Password for new user
    -e RESOLUTION=1920x1080 \       # Resolution of VNC
    -e HTTP_PASSWORD=mypassword \   # Password for VNC
    -p 6080:80 -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm tjferrara/argos3:latest

These options are given by the base image dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc. For more customization information, visit https://hub.docker.com/r/dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc.

Build it yourself

To build and run the container:

$ git clone https://github.com/tylerferrara/argos3-docker.git argos3-docker
$ cd argos3-docker
$ docker-compose up --build

NOTE: This can take up to 15min to compile as it builds ARGoS from source.
