Setting up with Docker (without docker-compose usage)

You can build a Docker image of the JanusGraph visualizer with the included Dockerfile. This will use the current version of the main branch of the source GitHub repository. The Docker image can be built by calling the docker build -f full.Dockerfile command, for example:

docker build --tag=janusgraph-visualizer:latest -f full.Dockerfile .

If you had already built node project on your host then you can create a Docker image faster by using Dockerfile instead of full.Dockerfile:

docker build --tag=janusgraph-visualizer:latest .

The image can also be downloaded from Docker hub: janusgraph/janusgraph-visualizer:latest.

docker pull janusgraph/janusgraph-visualizer:latest

The Docker image can then be run by calling docker run and exposing the necessary ports for communication. See Docker's documentation for more options on how to run the image.

# if you built the image yourself
docker run --rm -d -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 --name=janusgraph-visualizer --network=host janusgraph-visualizer:latest
# if you downloaded from Docker Hub
docker run --rm -d -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 --name=janusgraph-visualizer --network=host janusgraph/janusgraph-visualizer:latest

Note that --network=host is not needed if you don't run your gremlin server in the host machine.

• Open the browser and navigate to

http://localhost:3001

The Docker container can be stopped by calling docker stop janusgraph-visualizer.
