snap-docker

This is a project for the creation of Docker images containing the latest published SNAP version (currently SNAP 12).

The project is based on an earlier setup for SNAP 8, see https://github.com/snap-contrib/docker-snap.

The main goals are to run Docker containers with SNAP from cloud environments and to access the corresponding esa_snappy from Jupyter notebooks.

Accessing and using the docker images

A docker image containing an Ubuntu environment, a Python environment (Python version 3.10), and a SNAP 12 installation with esa_snappy configured and ready to use can be pulled from

docker pull quay.io/bcdev/snap12_python

A docker image with reduced size containing an Ubuntu environment and a SNAP 12 installation (but no Python environment) can be pulled from

docker pull quay.io/bcdev/snap12

This image can be used for running the SNAP Desktop GUI inside a Docker container.
