Docker for SPIRAL

Docker is easiest way to get the SPIRAL agent up and running on your machine. There is no need to build anything or install any packages (besides Docker itself).

Quickstart

1. Install Docker on your local host machine.

2. Run the following command in the terminal:

   docker run -it -p 8888:8888 ddtm/spiral:latest
   

   This will start an instance of Jupyter Notebook server.

   Note that you can replace 8888:8888 with <HOST_PORT>:8888 where <HOST_PORT> is a port on your local host machine.

3. Follow the instructions and open the URL in your host web browser: http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=...

4. You should see a file browser. Select spiral-demo.ipynb.

5. Voilà!

Now you should be able to go through the demo notebook. Use Shift + Enter to execute a cell and go to the next one. For more information on how to use Jupyter notebooks see, for example, this tutorial.
