What is Asciio

App::Asciio - Plain ASCII diagram.

The app is free for you drawing diagram to discribe your logics of your codes or classes. But it is can't work on MacOS, so I made this docker image to make it working on MacOS. Hope you enjoying it.

installing xquartz on MAC:

brew install xquartz

Configing XQuartz

XQuartz is the basis for supporting x11 to run Asciio with GUI.

  1. open XQuartz,
  2. open menu "application" -> "terminal"
  3. input command : xhost +

Pulling docker image

docker pull brucexx1/asciio_docker_test

The latest command you should run:

docker container run  -it -e DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0 brucexx1/asciio_docker_test

Despite running xhost +, I get an error when I run the Docker command:

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: host.docker.internal:0 at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22/Gtk2.pm line 126

Any ideas?

Sorry about that.

I have no idea. last month I encoutered the same error on new mac os.

I created the docker image in last year. It worked very well in last year.

If you want to fix, you can clone that repo to modify DockerFile.

Might be that this is brittle and only works with specific macOS versions. I'm currently on Big Sur.
