Hi,
thanks for your feedback.
I am running CentOS7, my IDE is Pycharm2016 and I am running the Fenics project docker image on quay (quay.io/fenicsproject/stable:latest).
I was following the instructions on the pyCharm website. I was also trying to use this screencast on youtube. The auther there specifically mentions that you don’t need the VM on linux, but no more than that. I was trying to find more on this, but without success.
I did however manage to expose a port of my container using:
docker run -ti -p 127.0.0.1:2376:2376 quay.io/fenicsproject/stable:latest
Then I added the http;//127.0.0.1:2376 as the API url in Pycharm. Since running on Linux the path to certificate folder is not necessary if http is used instead of https. In this cae I get an exception: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset. Perhaps I should install docker-compose and create the certificate folder and then try again.
