- Required libraries VTK, CGAL, pybind11, opencascade
- Optional libraries ROOT, USD
- Install from pypi (pip install pyg4ometry)
- Install from source (git clone https://[email protected]/jairhul/pyg4ometry.git; cd pyg4ometry; make install or make develop)
- Mac ports deps (cgal5, opencascade, boost, cmake, python3X)
- Mac brew deps (cgal, opencascade, cmake, python3X)

Build the docker container
- cd pyg4ometry/docker/
- docker build --build-arg PYG4OMETRY_VER=0 -t centos-pyg4ometry -f Dockerfile-centos-pyg4ometry .
If the pyg4ometry git repository has changed change the value of PYG4OMETRY_VER variable
as this will for a clone and install
Run an image (here is my script for Mac and Docker Desktop)
- export ip=
(ifconfig en0 | grep inet | awk '$1 == "inet" {print $2}') - xhost +$ip
- docker run -ti -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -v /Users/sboogert/Physics:/tmp/Physics -e DISPLAY=$ip:0 centos-bdsim
