How to create a docker image?

  1. Download the docker_submission/ folder from the GitHub link: SurgT_challenge
  2. Create an environment requirements file docker_submission/surg_t_requirements.txt, to specify the libraries you used For conda: conda env export > surg_t_requirements.txt For virtualenv: pip freeze > surg_t_requirements.txt
  3. Edit line 60 in the Dockerfile to upload your code to the docker image Option 1: copy SurgT_benchmarking folder (containing your code) from your local computer to the docker image using: COPY [path/to/your/SurgT_benchmarking] /home/newuser/surg_t/ Option 2: upload the SurgT_benchmarking folder (containing your code) on GitHub and use: RUN git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GIT_USERNAME/SurgT_benchmarking.git /home/newuser/surg_t/
  4. Run the following commands to build Docker and test it is working: sh build.sh , sh start.sh
  5. Compress docker image for uploading : docker save -o surgt.tar surgt:latest
