This is a super basic noVNC build using supervisor to serve Prusaslicer in your favorite web browser. This was primarily built for users using the popular unraid NAS software, to allow them to quickly hop in a browser, slice, and upload their favorite 3D prints.

A lot of this was branched off of dmagyar's awesome prusaslicer-vnc-docker project, but I found it to be a bit complex for my needs and thought this approach would simplify things a lot.

In unraid

If you're using unraid, open your Docker page and under Template repositories, add https://github.com/helfrichmichael/unraid-templates and save it. You should then be able to Add Container for prusaslicer-novnc. For unraid, the template will default to 6080 for the noVNC web instance.

Outside of unraid

To run this image, you can run the following command: docker run --detach --volume=prusaslicer-novnc-data:/configs/ --volume=prusaslicer-novnc-prints:/prints/ -p 8080:8080 -e SSL_CERT_FILE="/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt" --name=prusaslicer-novnc prusaslicer-novnc

This will bind /configs/ in the container to a local volume on my machine named prusaslicer-novnc-data. Additionally it will bind /prints/ in the container to superslicer-novnc-prints locally on my machine, it will bind port 8080 to 8080, and finally, it will provide an environment variable to keep Prusaslicer happy by providing an SSL_CERT_FILE.

Using a VNC Viewer

To use a VNC viewer with the container, the default port for X TigerVNC is 5900. You can add this port by adding -p 5900:5900 to your command to start the container to open this port for access.
