How to try Sardana using Docker
People who do not know Tango Control System may find it difficult to start exploring the Sardana project. This guide will let them start the Sardana system, run in a Docker container, and start playing with it in less then 15 min!
- A host with an internet connection and Docker environment set up
This guide uses the sardana-test docker container. Read carefully the containers documentation cause it will be used during the rest of the steps.
From the above documentation it is recommended to choose the following configuration:
- Run the container with the GUI mode enabled.
- Install Sardana using pip from the develop branch (Sardana's develop branch is usually very stable).
It is recommended to start the servers in separate docker exec sessions
without the supervisor. Actually it would be even convenient to run them
with --log-level=debug option, just in case you hit some problem then
simple copy&paste the output and report an
issue.
Start another bash session inside of the container and start spock inside.
Simply continue reading the documentation (from the spock chapter forward) at the same time exploring the Sardana project within this docker environment. Enjoy!
