Docker

To ensure reproducibility and sandboxed execution of SWE-agent actions across systems, we adopt practices established in prior work and use 🐋 Docker containers to carry out SWE-agent inference.

• The swe.Dockerfile file is the customized image written for the environment of SWE-agent.
• The ./setup.sh script automatically builds this image.
• When run.py is invoked, containers are automatically created from the built image.
  • There is no need to manually build a container from the image.

Here, we explain what each line in swe.Dockerfile does:

1. Base Image: Start from the latest version of the Ubuntu image.

   FROM ubuntu:latest
   

   1. Build Argument: Define a build argument MINICONDA_URL that will be used to specify the Miniconda installer URL during the build process. bash ARG MINICONDA_URL

2. Install Third-Party Tools: Update the package lists for the Ubuntu package manager and install several essential development tools. Clean up after the installation.

   RUN apt-get update && \
   apt-get install -y bash gcc git jq wget g++ make && \
   apt-get clean && \
   rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
   

   1. Initialize Git: Configure global Git settings with a user email and name. bash RUN git config --global user.email "sweagent@pnlp.org" RUN git config --global user.name "sweagent"

3. Environment Variables: Set the ROOT environment variable and customize the shell prompt.

   ENV ROOT='/dev/'
   RUN prompt() { echo " > "; };
   ENV PS1="> "
   

   1. Create Assets for Inference: Create two files that are used to track metadata during an episode. bash RUN touch /root/files_to_edit.txt RUN touch /root/test.patch

4. Enhance ls Command: Modify the .bashrc file to alias the ls command.

   RUN echo "alias ls='ls -F'" >> /root/.bashrc
   

   1. Install Miniconda: Download and install Miniconda, then initialize conda with Bash support and add conda-forge to the channels list. bash ENV PATH="/root/miniconda3/bin:${PATH}" ARG PATH="/root/miniconda3/bin:${PATH}" RUN wget ${MINICONDA_URL} -O miniconda.sh \ && mkdir /root/.conda \ && bash miniconda.sh -b \ && rm -f miniconda.sh RUN conda --version \ && conda init bash \ && conda config --append channels conda-forge

5. Install Python Packages: Copy the requirements.txt file into the image and install the specified Python packages.

   COPY docker/requirements.txt /root/requirements.txt
   RUN pip install -r /root/requirements.txt
   

   1. Set Working Directory: Set the working directory to the root directory. bash WORKDIR /

6. Default Command: Set the default command to open a Bash shell when the container starts.

   CMD ["/bin/bash"]
