A MATLAB docker image with all toolboxes installed.

Currently mathowrks only provides 2 container images for matlab.

1- Only MATLAB.

2- MATLAB + Deep Learning Toolbox.

Is there a container image that has all toolboxes pre-installed?

I need this for Ubuntu. So only the toolboxes that work on Linux are needed.

No, and that is not going to happen.

Mathworks only provides docker images based upon Ubuntu.

• Data Acquisition Toolbox only runs on Windows -- and what data acquisition hardware are you going to have connected to a Docker image anyhow?
• The most important Datafeed Toolbox streams are only available on Windows
• Model -Based Calibration Toolbox is Windows only
• OPC Toolbox is Windows only
• Simulink Desktop Real-Time is Windows and MacOS only
• Simulink PLC Coder is Windows only
• Simulink Real-Time is Windows only
• Spreadsheet Link is Windows only

In theory, Docker images for Windows can be created. However, there are some products that are not supported on Windows,

MATLAB does not allow installing toolboxes in bulk, So every insatlles needs a restrt of the matlab. and for containers a commit to save the container state. This is a headache.

Why can't we have an image with all the toolboxes supported in linux?

[Walter Roberson]

MATLAB Silent Installation certainly allows installation in bulk.

I really have to wonder how often anyone uses Polyspace Link for ADA, inside a Docker image.

Can you show me how can I spepcify the toolboxes while doing silent installatio inside a docker container?

First you download the software, such as by using the ISO option https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/259632-how-can-i-get-matlab-installation-files-for-use-on-an-offline-machine

Prepare a File Installation Key; https://www.mathworks.com/help/install/ug/install-using-a-file-installation-key.html

Edit the installer_input.txt file to uncomment the products you want to install;
