This is a dockerized environment for rebcabin's fork of mathics:
A free, light-weight alternative to Mathematica.
This environment runs through an entrypoint that supports two modes:
- command-line - mathics
- web-ui - mathicsserver
PROJECT_ROOT/app/data folder will be mapped to /usr/src/app/data inside docker container. All files in that folder are shared between host and container.
web-ui mode and command-line mode can run simultaneously in two separate docker containers. Simply run container in one mode first and another container in the other mode.
See docker-compose and docker sections below, which explain how to run a mathics container. Mathics container runs through the entrypoint. Run the a container with --help at the end to see a complete list of options supported by the container.
docker-compose will pull all necessary images and build the target image automatically before the first run.
$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker-compose run --rm mathics --mode cli
$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker-compose run --service-ports --rm mathics --mode ui
Mathics server will be available at http://localhost:8000
Target image has to be built manually with bare docker.
$ cd PROJECT_ROOT
$ docker build -t rebcabin/mathics app
$ docker run --rm -it --name rebcabin-mathics -v PROJECT_ROOT/app/data:/usr/src/app/data rebcabin/mathics --mode cli
$ docker run --rm -it --name rebcabin-mathics -p 8000:8000 -v PROJECT_ROOT/app/data:/usr/src/app/data rebcabin/mathics --mode ui
To access documentation, start in web-ui mode, open http://localhost:8000 in a browser and start searching.
