ise-docker

AMD/Xilinx ISE installed into a docker image for CI purposes.

Build instructions

1. This docker file assumes the ISE multiplatform archive file is available on a webserver somewhere. This can easily be the build machine using the webserver in Python.

   cd /path/to/ISE/download
   python -m http.server

2. Copy your Xilinx.lic file into the directory.
3. Potentialy modify the install_config.txt to change the install options.
4. Build the image (will take about 10 minutes) passing in a build arg

   docker build --build-arg ISE_HOST=192.168.1.196:8000 -t ise .

Running

The Dockerfile sets up a xilinx user to avoid running as root. I have only considered running ISE in batch mode for running CI simulations and building bit files. For development work with the GUI you may have to fiddle with X11 settings.
