Passing additional parameters to docker run command in clickable

[arubislander]

I am trying my hand at getting one of the GoCV examples to run on my Ubuntu Touch device. For the first step I thought I would just see if I could get it to run in an app built with clickable on the desktop. The next step would then be to figure out how to get the OpenCV and GoCV bits into the click package to be able to run everything on the device itself.

For convenience I created a custom docker image with all the OpenCV and GoCV bits already installed.

Now for where I need help: The example needs access to the video device (probably /dev/video0) from within the container. Normally this could be achieved by passing --device=/dev/video0:/dev/video0 to docker run. Is there any way to do this with clickable?

Not sure but I don't think there is a way to do this with clickable directly. So you may either adapt https://github.com/bhdouglass/clickable/blob/master/clickable/commands/desktop.py to your needs, or adapt the docker commands clickable would execute and run them manually.(?)

Thanks @hummlbach, will try that.

@arubislander talking about parameters, you need to update your signature :grin:

@arubislander you see best/easiest what clickable does when it fails for some reason. ^^ So try to let it fail :)

@advocatux: Done! Thanks for the reminder.

@hummlbach: That should not be too difficult... Hehehe. I have to get back to it. Have been distracted by life... 😅
