Runs the Protégé ontology tool in a Docker container.
Your host system needs Docker and an X11 windowing system.
Configure your host to allow X11 forwarding to localhost by adding the following to ~/.ssh/config:
Host localhost
ForwardX11Trusted yes
ForwardX11 yes
Copy the dot_env_example file to .env. Then, fill in a root password of your
choice.
If you're on a Mac, just double-click on the run_protege.command script. If
you're on Linux, just run the run_protege.command script from the
command-line. If you're on Windows, you'll have to start the Docker container,
then SSH with X11 forwarding.
When prompted, enter the root password that you chose earlier.
To load an ontology, first copy your ontology into the docker_resources
folder, which is mapped into the container. Then, within Protégé, navigate to
the /root/protege/docker_resources folder.
I created this Docker configuration because the Protégé installation on my Mac somehow got corrupted, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it!
