Pull the Alpine Linux based image (only SNAP Sentinel-1 toolbox):
docker pull mundialis/esa-snap:latest
We recommend the following tutorial:
http://step.esa.int/docs/tutorials/SNAP_CommandLine_Tutorial.pdf
Using the GUI, among other functionality the GraphBuilder is available.
Start of GUI, with volume mapping of current directory (pwd; may be set to a
different directory) to /data/ within docker:
docker run -it --rm --volume="$(pwd)/:/data" \
--volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \
--env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY --device="/dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card0" \
mundialis/esa-snap:latest \
/usr/local/snap/bin/snap
Using the SNAP Graph Processing Tool (GPT):
# show help of gpt tool
docker run -it --rm mundialis/esa-snap:latest /usr/local/snap/bin/gpt -h
One can pass the required processing settings in an XML-encoded graph file which is passing this graph as parameter to the gpt tool:
docker run -it --rm mundialis/esa-snap:latest /usr/local/snap/bin/gpt <GraphFile.xml> [options] [<source-file-1> <source-file-2> ...]
For further gpt usage please refer to the official documentation.
This docker image is based on Alpine Linux and only contains the s1tbx toolbox. Furthermore,
- the original installer provided by ESA ships its own oracle java
- Alpine is based on musl libc and busybox. As Oracle JAVA depends on glibc, it doesn't work smoothly. With https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc this can be workarounded to a certain way but in our case not sufficient (conflicting dependencies).
- From SNAP Version 8, oracle java > 8 and openjdk in general will be supported officially (https://forum.step.esa.int/t/problems-running-tests-in-intellij/9350/8)
Find the Ubuntu based docker image related files in branch ubuntu (see here).
See there for related instructions.
Alternatively, a build approach was tried out. Kept here if needed further. As the stable SNAP version 7.0.2 needs maven 3.6.0 (while alpine offers 3.6.3), so SNAP 8 was built for testing.
