rebcabin/mathics-dockerized

Dockerized environment for Mathics

Mathics Dockerized

About

This is a dockerized environment for rebcabin's fork of mathics:

A free, light-weight alternative to Mathematica.

How it works

This environment runs through an entrypoint that supports two modes:

• command-line - mathics
• web-ui - mathicsserver

PROJECT_ROOT/app/data folder will be mapped to /usr/src/app/data inside docker container. All files in that folder are shared between host and container.

web-ui mode and command-line mode can run simultaneously in two separate docker containers. Simply run container in one mode first and another container in the other mode.

docker-compose

docker-compose will pull all necessary images and build the target image automatically before the first run.

command-line

$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker-compose run --rm mathics --mode cli

web-ui

$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker-compose run --service-ports --rm mathics --mode ui

Mathics server will be available at http://localhost:8000

docker

Target image has to be built manually with bare docker.

building

$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker build -t rebcabin/mathics app

running command-line

$ docker run --rm -it --name rebcabin-mathics -v PROJECT_ROOT/app/data:/usr/src/app/data rebcabin/mathics --mode cli

running web-ui

$ docker run --rm -it --name rebcabin-mathics -p 8000:8000 -v PROJECT_ROOT/app/data:/usr/src/app/data rebcabin/mathics --mode ui
