Run from Docker

We have gained support for running our images from Docker thanks to @sickcodes and his Dock-Droid project. 

Our stable Android 9 based images are default, but you can load up a specific image as well (helpful for testing in a development environment)

Initial setup
Before you do anything else, you will need to turn on hardware virtualization in your BIOS. Precisely how will depend on your particular machine (and BIOS), but it should be straightforward.
Then, you'll need QEMU and some other dependencies on your host:
1
# ARCH
2
sudo pacman -S qemu libvirt dnsmasq virt-manager bridge-utils flex bison iptables-nft edk2-ovmf
3
​
4
# UBUNTU DEBIAN
5
sudo apt install qemu qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils virt-manager
6
​
7
# CENTOS RHEL FEDORA
8
sudo yum install libvirt qemu-kvm
Copied!
Then, enable libvirt and load the KVM kernel module:
1
sudo systemctl enable --now libvirtd
2
sudo systemctl enable --now virtlogd
3
​
4
echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/module/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs
5
​
6
sudo modprobe kvm
Copied!

Use any generic ISO or use your own Android AOSP raw image or qcow2
Where, "${PWD}/disk.qcow2" is your image in the host system.

Then from the host, you can can connect using either: adb connect localhost:5555
adb connect 172.17.0.2:5555
