Installing the JumpScale Docker Container

The JumpScale Docker container is available on Docker Hub: jumpscale/ubuntu1604_js_development.

First make sure you have a Docker machine (host) available, see the Docker documentation for help: https://docs.docker.com/machine/get-started/

In order to list all available machines:

docker-machine ls

Connect your shell to one of the available Docker machines, for instance in order to connect to default (hosted locally on VirtualBox):

eval "$(docker-machine env default)"

Download the JumpScale Docker image:

docker pull jumpscale/ubuntu1604_js_development

Run a Docker container using the image, and start an interactive session:

docker run --rm -t -i --name=js jumpscale/ubuntu1604_js_development

In the Docker container let's test the JumpScale interactive shell:

export HOME=/root
js

An SSH server is installed in the Docker container, but you will have to remap port 22 to some other port on localhost, e.g. 2022.

Create a new one specifying the port mapping:

docker run --rm -i -t -p 2022:22 --name="js" jumpscale/ubuntu1604_js_development /sbin/my_init -- bash -l
