> A Virtualised Raspberry Pi inside a Docker image
Gives you access to a virtualised ARM based Raspberry Pi machine running the Raspian operating system.
This is not just a Raspian Docker image, it's a full ARM based Raspberry Pi virtual machine environment.
## Usage
```
docker run -it lukechilds/dockerpi
```
By default all filesystem changes will lost on shutdown. You can persist filesystem changes between reboots by mounting the `/sdcard` volume on your host:
```
docker -v $HOME/.dockerpi:/sdcard run -it lukechilds/dockerpi
```
If you have a specific image you want to mount you can mount it at `/sdcard/filesystem.img` :
```
docker -v /2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-lite.img:/sdcard/filesystem.img run -it lukechilds/dockerpi
```
If you only want to mount your own image, you can download a much slimmer VM only Docker container that doesn't contain the Raspbian filesystem image:
[](https://hub.docker.com/r/lukechilds/dockerpi/tags?name=latest)
[](https://hub.docker.com/r/lukechilds/dockerpi/tags?name=vm)
```
docker -v /2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-lite.img:/sdcard/filesystem.img run -it lukechilds/dockerpi:vm
```
## Build
Build this image yourself by checking out this repo, `cd` ing into it and running:
```
docker build -t lukechilds/dockerpi .
```
