In a new directory create a file called 'Dockerfile' and populate as follows:
FROM centos
MAINTAINER Stephen Shorrock
# Install sbcl
RUN rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
RUN yum install -y sbcl
Then in that same directory build the docker image/container:
docker build -t="sbcl" ./
Once built run the container as a new bash shell:
docker run -i -t sbcl /bin/bash
start lisp:
sbcl
or run the sbcl interpreter striaght away:
docker run -i -t sbcl sbcl
You could even run a lisp script on the local drive by mounting a path, eg if your script was /tmp/myscripts/script1.lisp
eg (content of /tmp/myscripts/script1.lisp)
(write-line "Hello, World!")
docker run -i -v /tmp/myscripts:lisp_scripts -t sbcl sbcl --script lisp_scripts/script1.lisp
#: Hello, World!
...
once finished exit lisp
(quit)
and quit the docker container:
Ctrl-P Ctrl-Q
To attach back into the container, find the id of the running container
sudo docker ps
Then attach back:
sudo docker attach
