This repository is a collection of definitions (Dockerfile + helper files) to build Docker images for rpy2.

There are 2 types of Docker images defined:

1. An image to build binary wheels
2. Images to run rpy2

cibuildwheel: An image to build binary wheels with cibuildwheel.

Documentation for each image is in its corresponding directory:

• base : the base image for rpy2
• jupyter : jupyter added to the base image
• jupyter_ds : a jupyter with added extension for data science use

Image builds are pushed to dockerhub:

• https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/rpy2/base-ubuntu
• https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/rpy2/jupyter-ubuntu
• https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/rpy2/jupyter_ds-ubuntu

The jupyter(*)-ubuntu images are intended to work my mybinder. This is demoed in rpy2-mybinder.
