ModelSim Docker Container

Instructions on how to build and run a Docker container for ModelSim using the provided Dockerfile and scripts.

Building the Docker Image

Clone the repository containing the Dockerfile and scripts.

Make the scripts executable:

chmod +x build.sh run.sh

Run the build.sh script to build the Docker image:

./build.sh

Running the Docker Container

Use the run.sh script to run the Docker container. You need to provide the path to your project as an argument.

./run.sh <project_path>

Replace <project_path> with the absolute path to your ModelSim project directory. For example:

./run.sh /home/user/Projects/fpga

Notes

  • Ensure the provided project path is an absolute path.
  • The container will be run with the same UID and GID as the current user to ensure proper permissions for accessing files in the mounted project directory.
  • X11 forwarding is set up to allow ModelSim's GUI to run on the host's display.

Feel free to modify the Dockerfile or scripts to suit your specific requirements.
