You can enable proxy inside container by passing following environment variables:
- HTTP_PROXY="<docker_bridge_ip_address>"
- HTTPS_PROXY="<docker_bridge_ip_address>"
- NO_PROXY="localhost"
You can change the language setting of Android Emulator on the fly by passing following environment variable:
- LANGUAGE="<language>"
- COUNTRY="<country>"
Passing following environment variable to be able to connect laptop / pc camera to Android emulator:
- EMULATOR_ARGS="-camera-back webcam0"
If you want to add more arguments for running emulator, you can pass an environment variable EMULATOR_ARGS while running docker command.
docker run --privileged -d -p 6080:6080 -p 4723:4723 -p 5554:5554 -p 5555:5555 -e DEVICE="Samsung Galaxy S6" -e EMULATOR_ARGS="-no-snapshot-load -partition-size 512" --name android-container budtmo/docker-android-x86-8.1
If you want to backup/reuse the avds created with furture upgrades or for replication, run the container with two extra mounts
- -v local_backup/.android:/root/.android
- -v local_backup/android_emulator:/root/android_emulator
docker run --privileged -d -p 6080:6080 -p 4723:4723 -p 5554:5554 -p 5555:5555 -v local_backup/.android:/root/.android -v local_backup/android_emulator:local_backup/android_emulator -e DEVICE="Nexus 5" --name android-container budtmo/docker-android-x86-8.1
For the first run, this will create a new avd and all the changes will be accessible in the local_backup
directory. Now for all future runs, it will reuse the avds. Even this should work with new releases of docker-android
