# docker-stellarium
Browse the cosmos and control your telescope with [Stellarium](http://www.stellarium.org/en_CA/) running under Docker.
## Building the image
Clone this repository, change into the source directory and run:
```
docker build .
```
## Running Stellarium
To start Stellarium do:
```
docker run -it \
-e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
-v /dev/shm:/dev/shm \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-v $HOME/.stellarium:/root/.stellarium \
--device /dev/dri/card0 \
--name stellarium \
jamesnetherton/stellarium
```
To use the [telescope control plugin](http://www.stellarium.org/wiki/index.php/Telescope_Control_plug-in), you'll need to add a `--device` flag pointing at your RS232 port (usually `/dev/ttyS0`) or your USB->RS232 adapter (usually `/dev/ttyUSB0`).
When the application has launched, you'll be able to configure the telescope control plugin as per usual and point it at `/dev/ttyS0` or `/dev/ttyUSB0`.
```
docker run -it \
-e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
-v /dev/shm:/dev/shm \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-v $HOME/.stellarium:/root/.stellarium \
--device /dev/dri/card0 \
--device /dev/ttyUSB0 \
--name stellarium \
jamesnetherton/stellarium
```
### Command line options
You can pass any of the usual [command line options](http://www.stellarium.org/wiki/index.php/Advanced_Use#Command_Line_Options) to stellarium by adding them onto the end of `docker run`. E.g to disable full screen mode on startup:
```
docker run -it \
-e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
-v /dev/shm:/dev/shm \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
-v $HOME/.stellarium:/root/.stellarium \
--device /dev/dri/card0 \
--device /dev/ttyUSB0 \
--name stellarium \
jamesnetherton/stellarium --full-screen no
```
