A basic Docker image of a REDHAWK development environment.
The image can be pulled from the Docker Hub Registry
The default command for this image runs a bash shell as the 'redhawk' user. This is a privileged user and is not required to authenticate when running 'sudo' so that the container may be customized.
docker run -it axios/redhawk
The image comes with the omniNames and omniEvents servers installed and configured. Start them with:
sudo service omniNames start
sudo service omniEvents start
#REDHAWK IDE support The REDHAWK IDE has been left out of this docker image by default. To enable IDE support in your docker container perform the following steps:
-
On your localhost, disable xhost access control:
xhost + -
Run the image and bind mount the X11 socket to the container. Additionally, set the display environment variable:
docker run -it --volume=/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -e DISPLAY=unix$DISPLAY axios/redhawk -
Install the redhawk-ide yum package:
sudo yum install redhawk-ide -
Verify that the REDHAWK IDE can be launched from the container and displays correctly on the host system:
rhide&
NOTE: If you are on an SELinux enabled CentOS 7 host, you will need to first assign the appropriate context to the /tmp/.X11-unix directory as described here:
chcon -Rt svirt_sandbox_file_t /tmp/.X11-unix
