A tool to run docker images with customized local support injected for things like nvidia support. And user id specific files for cleaner mounting file permissions.

Integrated Extensions

There are a number of integrated extensions here's some of the highlights. You can get full details on the extensions from the main rocker --help command.

• x11 -- Enable the use of X11 inside the container via the host X instance.

• nvidia -- Enable NVIDIA graphics cards for rendering

• cuda -- Enable NVIDIA CUDA in the container

• user -- Create a user inside the container with the same settings as the host and run commands inside the container as that user.

• home -- Mount the user's home directory into the container

• pulse -- Mount pulse audio into the container

• ssh -- Pass through ssh access to the container.

As well as access to many of the docker arguments as well such as device, env, volume, name, network, and privileged
