About This Repo

This is the Git repo of the official Docker image for DeGirum AI Server.

The image contains DeGirum PySDK installation with the following AI runtimes installed:

  • DeGirum N2X runtime for DeGirum Orca devices
  • Intel® OpenVINO™ runtime for CPU, GPU, and NPU devices
  • Google TensorFlow Lite runtime for CPU and Coral Edge TPU devices
  • ONNX runtime for CPU
  • Rockchip RKNN Runtime for RKNPU devices

Once the docker container is started, DeGirum AI server is launched and accepts client connections on port 8778 using DeGirum proprietary protocol, and on port 8779 using HTTP/WebSockets protocol.

The image does not contain any AI models. The model zoo directory must be supplied as the bind mount to /zoo container-local directory.

How to Build and Use Official AI Server Docker Image

Pre-requisites: Docker Desktop or Docker Engine is installed on the docker host: the computer where you want to build or run the docker container.

DeGirum provides pre-built Docker container image on DockerHub, so you can run it right away.

To run the Docker container (either the one you built yourself (see below) or the one from DockerHub), execute the following command:

docker run -d -p 8778-8779:8778-8779 -v /my/model/zoo/dir:/zoo --privileged degirum/aiserver:latest

Here /my/model/zoo/dir is the local path on the docker host computer to the model zoo directory to be served by AI server. This parameter can be omitted. In this case, no models will be served from the local zoo, but models from cloud zoos can still be served.

The --privileged parameter is required so the PySDK server can have write access to /sys/bus/pci directories.

You connect to the AI server by providing the IP address or the host name of the docker host computer when connecting the the model zoo:

import degirum as dg
zoo = dg.connect(<docker host or IP> [, <cloud zoo URL>, <cloud access token>])

If you want to build the Docker container image yourself, execute the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/DeGirum/docker-degirum
cd docker-degirum/aiserver
docker build . -t degirum/aiserver:latest

How to Build and Use AI Server Docker Image with Embedded Zoo

If you want to include the model zoo directory directly into the docker image, create the following Dockerfile in some empty directory on your docker host computer:

FROM degirum/aiserver:latest
COPY /my/model/zoo/dir /zoo/

Here /my/model/zoo/dir is the local path on the docker host computer to the model zoo directory you want to embed into the Docker image.

Then build the docker image the by executing the following command having that directory which contains the Dockerfile as the current working directory:

docker build . -t your-custom-tag

Here your-custom-tag is the tag to assign to the image to be created.

To start the docker container built this way, execute the following command (you omit bind mount parameter):

docker run -d -p 8778-8779:8778-8779 --privileged your-custom-tag
