Claude Code Environment

This repository offers a docker container with a claude code installation and a minimalistic development environment. The idea is to give claude code an isolated environment to work in, which does not risk compromising other information on the machine. Therefore, only one chosen path is mounted into the container. Additionally, the repository offers an installation shell script to build the docker image and set up an alias 'claude_code_shell' to start a docker container and mount the current path. This repository mainly serves as an example and therefore integrates a java-maven setup for now. If another development setup is needed, it is recommended to exchange the docker base image given in the Dockerfile.

Installation

This will build the docker image and set up an alias (for zsh & bash). The image will be reused on each run.

Clone the git-repository and run the installation

git clone [email protected]:thanhart/claude-code-environment.git
cd claude-code-environment
./scripts/install.sh

Usage

In a directory in which you want to work with claude code, trigger

claude_code_shell

Uninstall

Uninstall removes:

• alias to launch docker container
• built docker image
• docker volume that persists authorization

./scripts/uninstall.sh

Without using alias

Build the Docker Image

docker build -t claude_code .

Run the Container

Run this command from the directory you want to mount into the container:

docker run -it --rm \
  -v "$(pwd)":/workspace \
  -v claude-credentials:/claude-credentials \
  -e HOST_UID=$(id -u) \
  -e HOST_GID=$(id -g) \
  -e "CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/claude-credentials" \
  claude_code
