Docker Android Emulator Setup

This repository contains scripts to set up and optimize an Android emulator on a fresh Ubuntu server using Docker. The setup includes options for different Android versions and optimizes the host machine for better performance.

Prerequisites

• A fresh Ubuntu server
• sudo privileges

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Lucky7897/Docker-android-ubuntu.git
   cd Docker-android-ubuntu

2. Run the installation scripts:

   sudo ./scripts/install_docker.sh
   sudo ./scripts/optimize_system.sh

3. Run the Android emulator:

   sudo ./scripts/run_emulator.sh [android-version]

   Replace [android-version] with the desired Android version (e.g., android-x86-9.0). If no version is specified, it defaults to Android 9.0.

4. Using Docker Compose:

   Alternatively, you can use Docker Compose to manage the emulator:

   sudo docker-compose up -d

Accessing the Emulator

The Android emulator can be accessed via VNC at http://<server-ip>:6080.

Available Android Versions

• android-x86-8.1
• android-x86-9.0
• android-x86-10.0
• android-x86-11.0

System Optimization

The optimize_system.sh script sets the following optimizations:

• Sets vm.swappiness to 10 to reduce swap usage.
• Sets vm.overcommit_memory to 1 to allow memory overcommitment.
• Disables transparent hugepages to improve performance with certain workloads.
