qiskit-docker

• This repo 'dockerizes' the development version of qiskit-terra, aqua and aqua-chemistry

Pre-requisites

• docker: To build a docker image, you need to have docker installed and start the docker service. Also make sure to set appropriate user permission to run docker. Visit the docker website for OS specific instructions. If you are running Windows 7, you will need to install docker toolbox

• This has been tested on Linux.

Docker image

• The docker image can be pulled directly from dockerhub: docker pull nsathaye/qiskit-dev. See https://hub.docker.com/r/nsathaye/qiskit-dev/ for more information.
• If you choose to build the docker image, read the next section.

Building the docker image using Dockerfile

• Make sure that pre-requisites are in place.
• Download (and extract the zip file) or git clone this repository.
• cd to the directory and then execute:
  docker build -t qiskit-dev .

Starting a Jupyter notebook container

• You can then start the jupyter notebook within the docker container as:
  docker run -it -p 8888:8888 docker.io/nsathaye/qiskit-dev
  OR if you have built the image yourself, then:
  * docker run -it -p 8888:8888 qiskit-dev
• The earlier step should print a URL. Just copy-paste the in the browser of your host machine. For example:
  

docker run -it -p 8888:8888 docker.io/nsathaye/qiskit-dev
[I 10:59:27.315 NotebookApp] Writing notebook server cookie secret to /home/qiskitter/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/notebook_cookie_secret
[I 10:59:27.675 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: /home/qiskitter
[I 10:59:27.675 NotebookApp] The Jupyter Notebook is running at:
[I 10:59:27.675 NotebookApp] http://(d14415a6c8af or 127.0.0.1):8888/?token=92b26e1a09ef2968cc5cc39c36bec1b1eba081ce9f4f15f5
[I 10:59:27.675 NotebookApp] Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation).
[C 10:59:27.677 NotebookApp] 

 Copy/paste this URL into your browser when you connect for the first time,
 to login with a token:
     http://localhost:8888/?token=92b26e1a09ef2968cc5cc39c36bec1b1eba081ce9f4f15f5

On windows 7, when you start the docker toolbox, it should print the ip in the command prompt with a message such as: "docker is configured to use the default machine with IP 192.x.x.x.x .. . Just use that 192.x ip it prints , instead of "localhost"
