With Docker installed, this container can be setup using the following command.
docker pull scimulate/code_aster:XX.Xy
Where XX.X(y) is the version number. Currently supported version numbers include:
- 14.6
- 14.6p (in progress)
- 15.2
- 15.2p (in progress)
Navigate to the host directory which contains code_aster files (mesh, setup, etc.).
cd /your_project_path
Run the following commands to enable GUI applications and start the container. Be sure to replace the sample tag "XX.X(y)" with any supported version number (14.6, 15.2, etc.).
xhost +local:docker
docker run --rm -it --env="DISPLAY" --net=host -v "$(pwd)":/analysis:Z scimulate/code_aster:XX.X(y)
The flag -v "$(pwd)":/analysis will mount the present working directory (pwd) to a dedicated folder in the container /analysis. This allows for seamless file read/write between the host and container. Next, start ASTK.
/opt/aster/bin/astk
Navigate to /analysis through ASTK and add files to the project. Results computed and saved to /analysis may be post-processed on the host after computing the solution. When done using the container, simply exit.
exit
