Minimal Docker container that can be used for developing Python code using CARLA 0.9.13 Python API.
Developed as a part of Adversarial Cases for Autonomous Vehicles (ARCANE) project.
Run it like this (includes CARLA server):
COMMIT=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD) USER_ID=$(id -u) GROUP_ID=$(id -g) \
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --build.env file contains server config variables.
In your code you can then use server when specifying the CARLA server hostname in carla.Client.
It is assumed that the code you are developing will live in the /app directory.
Preferably, it would also be an installable package (hence the PACKAGE variable),
e.g. generated with PyScaffold. If that is not the case,
please remove the PACKAGE env altogether.
In general, you should have your own package repo and add this one as a submodule
(or leave it out altogether). The recommended way is to use the carla-common image
as a base image in your FROM line (see Writing your own Dockerfile).
Git, basic compliers and common video (ffmpeg) and image libraries are installed by default.
However, git credentials are not stored in the container, so you will need to provide them
when you run git commands. In the future, a more lightweight image may be created,
however, those tools were needed so often that we decided to keep them for now.
Also, we have thrown-in some enhancements to simplify working with VS Code (e.g. volumes that store the remote VS Code or some additional Python packages). It should be pretty obvious which parts are that.
