Julia Docker Images

April 3, 2017 ยท View on GitHub

Docker images for base Julia and Julia packages.

The Julia base image packages provide just Julia and IJulia but do not include any packages. These are much smaller downloads, but require you to install any packages you need. To persist installed packages across docker sessions, mount a local volume as the user home folder.

The Julia package distributions build on the base image and bundle a set of packages by default.

Select the appropriate base Julia or a package distribution that matches your requirement and follow the steps below to install and run.

Installation

Running

  • Run to get a shell prompt: docker run -it <image>:<version>
  • Run Julia: docker run -it --entrypoint="/opt/julia/bin/julia" <image>:<version>
  • Run IJulia: docker run -it --net="host" --entrypoint="/usr/local/bin/ipython" <image>:<version> notebook --profile julia

The default user in the image is root with home directory /root. The default working directory is /.
