Requirements

🐳 Docker and Git

Quick start

1. Pull or build the docker image.

You can pull and run the image directly:

docker pull epwalsh/docker-shiny

Or build from scratch: 💪

git clone https://github.com/epwalsh/docker-shiny.git && cd docker-shiny
docker build -t epwalsh/shiny-server .

2. Run the docker image locally.

docker run --rm --env-file=access.txt -p 80:80 epwalsh/shiny-server

NOTE: If you pulled the image directly and didn't clone the repository, you'll need to create the access.txt file which just has two lines:

HT_USER=shiny
HT_PSWD=password

3. Test it out!

Open your web browser and go to local host. You should see a prompt asking for a username and password. The username and password are defined in the access.txt file and by default are shiny and password, respectively. Once you enter those you'll see the home page of your shiny new Shiny server :ok_hand: :ok_hand: :ok_hand: :ok_hand: :+1: :+1: :+1:
