Official Olympe docker image

[mgr098]

I have been trying to use a docker image from user dpulpeiro, but its running on an outdated Olympe version which causes a lot of errors. I have seen multiple developers have been trying to containerize Olympe, and I am therefore requesting an official Olympe docker image from the Parrot developers, or from anyone who has an updated version.

Hi

There is currently no “official docker” image and I don’t think it would be really simpler to use such an image than just installing Olympe with pip.

Since Olympe 7.0+ we are publishing Python wheels for Linux x86_64 on pypi.org.
Installing Olympe from there is relatively simple, you just need Python3 a recent version of pip and libgl1 installed (libgl1 is always installed on a desktop distrib).

Here is a Dockerfile example that shows how simple it really is :

FROM ubuntu:focal
SHELL ["/bin/bash", "-c"]

RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" \
  apt-get update && \
  apt-get install -y python3 python3-distutils curl libgl1 && \
  rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN python3 <(curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py)
RUN python3 -m pip install parrot-olympe
