# Folding@Home Docker Image Builds for Nvidia GPUs [](https://jenkins.home.keganmyers.com/job/folding-at-home-docker-gpu/) |

Folding@home is a project focused on disease research. |
|
|
|
Right now, to the best of my knowledge, they are the |
|
|
|
only GPU-based distributed computing project who |
|
|
|
are running calculations against Coronavirus. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is a combination of [Nikolay Yurin's Folding@home Dockerfile](https://github.com/yurinnick/folding-at-home-docker) |
|
|
|
and the [BOINC Nvidia Dockerfile](https://github.com/BOINC/boinc-client-docker), |
|
|
|
so that you have an additional layer of sandboxing around |
|
|
|
GPU computations of Folding@home. In case you are allowed |
|
|
|
to use other people's computers, or your employer's, |
|
|
|
using Docker containers might even be a requirement. |
|
|
|
This is a fork of [this](https://github.com/wandhydrant/folding-at-home-docker-gpu) |
|
|
|
repo with minor modifications to make pre-built images. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Build the image locally |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I did not set up anything pre-built on the Docker hub. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please inspect the Dockerfile and build the image yourself: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
cd <git-checkout> |
|
|
|
docker build -t my-fah-nvidia-image . |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### and run it: |

|
GPU access by containers went through several stages: |
|
|
|
first direct export of /dev/dri and other devices; then |

### (optional) Build the image yourself |

cd <git-checkout> |
