docker-contiki

Contiki Docker image for a university course on networked embedded systems. Supports msp430 (only) and simulations via Cooja.

How to use this

Install docker and docker-compose. Afterwards, download docker-compose.yml (or, if you are using Linux, docker-compose.linux.yml, renaming it to docker-compose.yml) from this repo and create a src directory next to it (it will be mounted in the container at /home/user/src). Then run docker-compose up -d to start the contiki container.

On Linux

When you run docker-compose exec contiki cooja, the Cooja GUI should open up.

To run a shell in the container, issue docker-compose exec contiki bash.

On anything that doesn't natively support X11

You may be able to use SSH with X Forwarding to access the Cooja GUI:

• From your host machine, ssh into the contiki container via ssh -X user@localhost -p 2222 (the password is user)
• Via ssh, run cooja in the container to start the Cooja simulator
