LabVIEW Docker Containers

This dockerfile will build a Windows image with LabVIEW 2019.

Usage

Building the Image

  1. Clone the repo
  2. CD into this directory
  3. Run docker build --pull --rm -f "Dockerfile" -t nidocker:latest "."
    • Depending on your docker setup you may need to pass a --network flag
    • Run docker network ls to see all your available networks, pick one that can reach the outside world
  4. The install should take a while and complete

Running a Container

  1. Ensure the docker image you just built is available
    • docker image ls
  2. Run docker run -it --name=labview-test nidocker
    • This will run a container from the image you just made, and you should be able to call labview via command line

Licensing the container

  1. Big thanks to Chris Stryker for this writeup on how to license a container-based LabVIEW instance. I, too, spent a long time trying a better way, but I have nothing, yet.
