backplane/mate repository overview

⁠mate

debian:stable-slim⁠-based dockerization of TigerVNC⁠ running the MATE Desktop Environment⁠

The source code for this image is hosted on GitHub in the backplane/conex repo⁠.

⁠Usage

Use the command below. A session-specific VNC password will be generated and written to the standard output. Then VNC to localhost and enter the password.

sudo is available but you need to set a password for the non-priv user first.

I'm more interested in deploying this in a pod with noVNC⁠ behind TLS.

⁠Interactive

mate() {
  docker run \
    --rm \
    --interactive \
    --tty \
    --publish "5900:5900" \
    --volume "matehome:/work/" \
    "backplane/mate" \
    "$@"
}
