We provide Dockerfile for docker users.

In this document, we use Dockerfile and the application LogisticRegression as the example. You can find how to use LogisticRegression in wiki.

Install docker according to docs of docker. After you install docker, you can use the command 'docker' or 'docker --help' to look over the commands of docker.

This document present two ways to get docker image.

docker build -t repo[:tag] - <dockerfile>

repo is the name of docker image. You also can add tag name to it. is the path of Dockerfile which you want to build. You can use this command to build docker image from local Dockerfile.

Example: docker build -t multiverso/deploy/docker:ubuntu - Dockerfile

We have built images in the public repository. So, you can pull the docker image by the below command.

docker pull lyysdy/dmtk:multiverso-v2

docker run -t -i repo[:tag] <program> <args>

is the path of program which we want to run. is the arguments of . repo[:tag] is the name of docker image(dmtk:v2 or lyysdy/dmtk:multiverso-v2).

Example:

docker run -t -i lyysdy/dmtk:multiverso-v2 /dmtk/build/applications/LogisticRegression config_file_path

If we want to use files which are not in docker, we can use the option '-v' to map local path to the path inside docker.

docker run -t -i -v /local/path:/path/inside/docker repo[:tag] <program> <args>

Docker is ran as a process. So we can use mpi to run the docker process which runs LogisticRegression. We can use the option '-p' to map local port to port inside docker.

mpirun -m $machine_file docker run -t -i -p /local/port:/port/inside/docker repo[:tag] <program> <args>
