How to use this

If you want to run the codes for yourself, install Docker Desktop and run:

mkdir -p /tmp/out
docker run -it --volume /tmp/out:/tmp/out dstndstn/eht-demo
# Look in /tmp/out for results, specifically /tmp/out/*/*.png

This will run for several minutes (on my 'puter: 4 minutes for difmap, 2.5 minutes for eht-imaging, and 1 minute for smili).

Note that one of the methods (difmap) does not handle quitting with control-C, so if you want to stop it, you may have to hold down ctrl-C, or kill the process.

Once it finishes running, it just exits back to the command line. So how do you get the results? The outputs are copied to /tmp/out, so have a look there! You should see a directory for each of the three methods (difmap, eht-imaging, and smili), each with a log file and a bunch of FITS image files.

Alternatively, you can run the docker container interactively, eg,

docker run -it dstndstn/eht-demo bash

and you'll find the code in /src; the command to run all the methods is /src/2019-D01-02/runx.sh

If you ran it non-interactively, as above, then after it finishes you can get back into the container by doing:

# Get the container ID of the most recently run container:
CON=$(docker ps -alq)
# Commit that to a new image
OUT=$(docker commit $CON eht-out)
# Run the new image
docker run -it $OUT bash
