This guide will show you how to create a Fedora docker container for GR or share the contributed GR container from Docker Hub.
Instead of manually installing GR and required modules it is highly recommended to use the existing container:
To create your “own” full-featured Fedora environment with GR support for Python and Julia, you have to install some prerequisites first:
% docker run -it fedora bash
$ yum install git make gcc gcc-c++ gcc-gfortran matplotlib ipython \
texlive-collection-latex PyQt4-devel wxGTK-devel ghostscript-devel \
glfw-devel zeromq3-devel mupdf-devel jbig2dec-devel openjpeg2-devel \
libjpeg-turbo-devel julia
Once you have installed the required components, you can install the GR framework in your newly created container:
git clone https://github.com/jheinen/gr
cd gr
make install; make clean
export PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:/usr/local/gr/lib/python
You are now ready to use GR from Python.
For the Julia programming language an official GR.jl package has been
registered. You can add the GR framework to your Julia installation with
the Pkg.add() function:
julia> Pkg.init()
julia> Pkg.add(“GR”)
At this point, you should be able to use GR:
