Open a x-terminal / xfce4-terminal from container

Is boring to work in Docker when you need many terminals for line command, bash command and text editor. The best way is to open X terminal for open many tabs without exit a Docker instance.

run container from image and set variables to export display and share data
$ sudo docker run --name=ubuntu-xterminal -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -v $HOME:$HOME --hostname dev -i -t ubuntu
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install xfce4-terminal
$ crtl + p + q  (quit container)

--name=ubuntu-xterminal (container name)
ubuntu (image name)
-v volume export
-e variable export

localhost, run xterminal from container
$ xhost +
$ sudo docker exec -ti -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY ubuntu-xterminal xfce4-terminal

Remove all unused volumes

To remove all unused volumes use the docker image prune command:
$ sudo docker volume prune
You’ll be prompted to continue, use the -f or --force flag to bypass the prompt.

Inspect gestorpsi_docker

$ sudo docker inspect gestorpsi_docker
