JDemetra+ Docker Setup

JDemetra+ is an open-source software application developed by the National Bank of Belgium in collaboration with the Deutsche Bundesbank and Eurostat for seasonal adjustment and time series analysis. It implements TRAMO/SEATS+ and X-12ARIMA/X-13ARIMA-SEATS methods and is officially recommended by the European Statistical System. The tool is designed for extensibility and reusability in Java, running on multiple platforms with Java SE 8 or later. For more details, visit the [JDemetra+ GitHub page](https://github.com/jdemetra/jdplus-main.

This repository contains the Docker setup for JDemetra+, including a noVNC setup for easy web access.

Getting Started

Follow these instructions to set up JDemetra+ in a Docker container using noVNC for web access, now configured without a password for ease of access.

Installation

1. Clone the Repository: Begin by cloning this repository to your local machine.

   git clone https://github.com/statisticsnorway/dapla-jdemetra-desktop.git
   cd dapla-jdemetra-desktop

Usage

After the image is built and pushed to the registry, initiate a container using the following command:

docker run --tmpfs /tmp/.X11-unix:rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=65536k -d -p 5900:5900 -p 6080:6080 $DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME

Alternatively, use this command for operation without VNC access:

docker run --tmpfs /tmp/.X11-unix:rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=65536k -d -p 6080:6080 $DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME

These commands, particularly the first one, map the container's VNC port 5900 and noVNC port 6080 to the same ports on your host machine. This modification allows access to JDemetra+ without the need for a password:

• VNC Access: Connect via a VNC client to localhost:5900. No password is required.
• noVNC Access: Navigate to http://localhost:6080 in a web browser for direct access without a password.

The image also adds a few example-documents for testing-purposes that lives in the Documents folder.
