Research direction

Start by reviewing the project's existing installation documentation and verify the listed Arch Linux, KVM, and Docker commands, including the emulator status check. Done means the Arch-specific installation path is added clearly enough for users to follow and reach the running emulator at http://localhost:6080.

Description

Idea

Arch Install

  1. If you use Arch Linux on your host machine, you can run this natively. Unlike OSX or Windows, you do not need a Virtual Machine because Arch supports KVM and Docker directly.
  2. Your machine should support virtualization. To check if virtualization is enabled and the modules are loaded, run:

LC_ALL=C lscpu | grep Virtualization
lsmod | grep kvm

  1. Run Docker-Android container

docker run -d -p 6080:6080 -e EMULATOR_DEVICE="Samsung Galaxy S10" -e WEB_VNC=true --device /dev/kvm --name android-container budtmo/docker-android:emulator_11.0

  1. Open http://localhost:6080 to see inside running container.
  2. To check the status of the emulator

docker exec -it android-container cat device_status
