FermiBottle Documentation

Welcome to the FermiBottle Wiki, home for documentation in support of the Fermi containerized analysis environment.

Getting Started

FermiBottle is a Docker container pre-loaded with the Fermitools, the HEASARC FTOOLS, Python 3 (and associated libraries) and a host of other programs.

Please read the System Recommendations and Requirements to make sure you have the necessary hardware to run the container and included software.

Installation

To get set up and running, you will need to first install Docker and then install the FermiBottle container. Docker supports Linux, macOS, and Microsoft Windows. We recommend Unix based systems (macOS or Linux), if possible, as they are likely to have the fewest problems. We have instructions to walk you through installing Docker and the FermiBottle for each of these operating systems:

Usage

Once you have successfully installed Docker and FermiBottle, follow the Usage Instructions to start the container and use it.

Troubleshooting

If you run into problems, please check the Troubleshooting guide.

Developer and Instructor Notes

The Developer Notes describe how the FermiBottle container was built and how to make changes to it intelligently.
