Sandpit

This is a containerized sandpit application that contains the necessary basic services for AI and data dev.

• Docker. Make sure this is installed on whatever platform you are running on.
• Go to root directory of this project in terminal, and execute the following. This should bring up all containers.
• If any changes were made to config files, this will also trigger a rebuild of containers.

docker compose -f sandpit.yaml up -d

• Verify all containers are running with docker ps

How to?

Force image rebuilds

docker compose -f sandpit.yaml build

Execute a command on the specific container

1. Example, check the base OS on a docker image, get the container id, by running docker ps. Suppose the ID is 0d307873619c, you can execute the following:

docker container exec 0d bash -c "cat /etc/os-release"

This tells docker to exec the command pwd on container id starting with 0d (no need to enter the full id). To get an interactive terninal:

docker container exec -it 0d bash -c "cat /etc/os-release"
