具有BRIDGE网络的Docker。 Ubuntu 16.04使用显示管理器lightdm:

cd /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d
sudo nano user.conf

[Seat:*]
xserver-allow-tcp=true
xserver-command=X -listen tcp

您可以使用更多的私有权限

xhost +

docker run --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority:rw" --env="DISPLAY=$HOST_IP_IN_BRIDGE_NETWORK:0" --net=bridge $container_name

如果你想无头运行GUI应用程序，请阅读这里。您需要做的是使用xvfb或其他类似软件创建一个虚拟监视器。如果您想在浏览器上运行Selenium测试，这是非常有用的。

任何地方都没有提到的是，一些软件实际上本身就在Linux容器中使用沙盒。例如，如果你在运行容器时没有使用适当的特权标志，Chrome将永远不会正常运行。

共享主机显示:0，正如在其他一些回答中所述，有两个缺点:

由于某些X安全漏洞，它打破了容器隔离。例如，可以使用xev或xinput进行键盘记录，使用xdotool远程控制主机应用程序。 由于X扩展MIT-SHM缺少共享内存，应用程序可能会出现呈现故障和糟糕的RAM访问错误。(也可以通过隔离降级选项——ipc=host进行修复)。

下面是一个在Xephyr中运行docker映像的示例脚本，可以解决这个问题。

当docker应用程序运行在嵌套的X服务器上时，它避免了X安全泄漏。 MIT-SHM关闭，避免RAM访问失败。 容器安全性通过——cap-drop ALL——security-opt no-new-privileges得到改进。容器用户也不是root用户。 创建一个X cookie来限制对Xephyr显示的访问。

脚本需要一些参数，第一个是在Xephyr中运行的主机窗口管理器，第二个是docker映像，第三个是可选的 要执行的映像命令。 要在docker中运行桌面环境，请使用“:”而不是主机窗口管理器。

关闭Xephyr窗口将终止docker容器应用程序。终止停靠的应用程序关闭Xephyr窗口。

这个脚本在x11docker wiki上维护。 更高级的脚本是x11docker，它还支持GPU加速、网络摄像头和打印机共享等功能。

Xauthority becomes an issue with newer systems. I can either discard any protection with xhost + before running my docker containers, or I can pass in a well prepared Xauthority file. Typical Xauthority files are hostname specific. With docker, each container can have a different host name (set with docker run -h), but even setting the hostname of the container identical to the host system did not help in my case. xeyes (I like this example) simply would ignore the magic cookie and pass no credentials to the server. Hence we get an error message 'No protocol specified Cannot open display'

Xauthority文件的编写方式可以使主机名无关紧要。 我们需要将认证家族设置为“FamilyWild”。我不确定xauth是否有合适的命令行，所以这里有一个结合xauth和sed的示例。我们需要改变nlist输出的前16位。FamilyWild的值为65535或0xffff。

docker build -t xeyes - << __EOF__
FROM debian
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -qqy x11-apps
ENV DISPLAY :0
CMD xeyes
__EOF__
XSOCK=/tmp/.X11-unix
XAUTH=/tmp/.docker.xauth
xauth nlist :0 | sed -e 's/^..../ffff/' | xauth -f $XAUTH nmerge -
docker run -ti -v $XSOCK:$XSOCK -v $XAUTH:$XAUTH -e XAUTHORITY=$XAUTH xeyes

您也可以使用subuser: https://github.com/timthelion/subuser

这允许你在docker中打包许多gui应用程序。到目前为止，Firefox和emacs已经进行了测试。然而，在firefox中，webGL却不能正常工作。铬根本不起作用。

编辑:声音工作!

EDIT2:自从我第一次发布这篇文章以来，subbuser已经取得了很大的进步。我现在有了一个subuser.org网站，以及一个通过XPRA桥接连接到X11的新安全模型。

OSX (10.13.6, high sierra)

类似于@Nick的答案，但他的解决方案对我不起作用。

首先通过brew install socat安装socat，然后安装XQuartz (https://www.xquartz.org/)

请在评论区(http://fabiorehm.com/blog/2014/09/11/running-gui-apps-with-docker/)按照以下步骤进行:

1. in one mac terminal i started:

socat TCP-LISTEN:6000,reuseaddr,fork UNIX-CLIENT:\"$DISPLAY\"

2. and in another mac terminal I ran:

docker run -ti --rm \
-e DISPLAY=$(ipconfig getifaddr en0):0 \
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
firefox

我也可以从我的debian docker容器中启动CLion。
