Option 2: Uploading the container image¶

Another way to get your Algorithm running on Grand Challenge is to export the container image to a compressed file, and upload it directly to Grand Challenge. To create the container image, run docker save IMAGE | gzip -c > IMAGE.tar.gz and wait for a few minutes until the image gets created and zipped into a single file. Alternatively, run ./do_save.sh if your algorithm template comes with it.

On your Algorithm page, you can upload the .tar.gz file by clicking Containers ⟶ Upload a Container.

Wait for your Algorithm container to be active (usually about 20 minutes). If your new container is not active after an hour, please reach out to us.

💡 You do not have to create a new algorithm page for every update to your algorithm. You can simply upload your new container by going to Containers ⟶ Upload a Container.
