MeshView Docker Container

This Dockerfile builds a containerized version of the MeshView application. It uses a lightweight Python environment and sets up the required virtual environment as expected by the application.

Image Details

Base Image: python:3.12-slim
Working Directory: /app
Python Virtual Environment: /app/env
Exposed Port: 8081

Build Instructions

Build the Docker image:

docker build -t meshview-docker .

Run Instructions

Run the container:

docker run -d --name meshview-docker -p 8081:8081 meshview-docker

This maps container port 8081 to your host. The application runs via:

/app/env/bin/python /app/mvrun.py

Web Interface

Once the container is running, you can access the MeshView web interface by visiting:

http://localhost:8081

If running on a remote server, replace localhost with the host's IP or domain name:

http://:8081

Ensure that port 8081 is open and not blocked by a firewall or security group.
