Open3D Docker

Dependencies

Docker dependencies

• Install Docker.
• Post-installation steps for linux. Make sure that docker can be executed without root privileges.

To verify that Docker is working, run:

# You should be able to run this without sudo.
docker run --rm hello-world

Nvidia Docker

You don't need to install Nvidia Docker to build CUDA container. You will need to install Nvidia Docker to run the CUDA container.

• Install Nvidia Docker. This is required for testing CUDA builds.

To verify that the Nvidia Docker is working, run:

docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:12.1-base nvidia-smi

ARM64 Docker

You can build and run ARM64 docker. This works on an ARM64 host including Apple Silicon. However, if your host is x86-64, you will need to install QEMU:

sudo apt-get --yes install qemu binfmt-support qemu-user-static

# Run the registering scripts
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes

To verify that the ARM64 environment is working, run:

# This shall print "aarch64".
# The following warning message is expected: "WARNING: The requested image's
# platform (linux/arm64/v8) does not match the detected host platform
# (linux/amd64) and no specific platform was requested aarch64."
docker run --rm arm64v8/ubuntu:24.04 uname -p

Build and test Docker

For example:

cd docker

# Build Docker.
./docker_build.sh openblas-amd64-py38-dev

# Test Docker.
./docker_test.sh openblas-amd64-py38-dev

See ./docker_build.sh and ./docker_test.sh for all available options.
