Containerizing Basilisk

[Jmiceli17]

Hey everyone, I am trying to containerize basilisk for another project I'm working on and running into import errors. When I try to run my image, I see errors like
ImportError: cannot import name 'pyswice' from 'Basilisk.topLevelModules' (/opt/basilisk/dist3/Basilisk/topLevelModules/__init__.py)

I assume this is due to differences between using the virtual env and a docker container. I'm trying to avoid using the venv within the container because it seems like I shouldn't need to but I'm open to any potential solution.

Has anyone ever done this with Basilisk and is willing to share some of their Dockerfile? Or have any tips for containerizing an app that is typically managed by a virtual env?

Update:
I'm still looking for a solution but I've noticed that conan appears to be configured differently between the venv and the docker image.
When I run python3 conanfile.py from the the virtual env, the conan configuration looks like

Configuring: use libstdc++11 by default
Checking conan configuration: Done
Auto-Generating Draft Modules...  Done
Running this conan command:
python -m conans.conan install . --build=missing -s build_type=Release -if dist3/conan -o opNav=False -o vizInterface=True -o buildProject=True -o clean=True
Configuration:
[settings]
arch=x86_64
build_type=Release
compiler=gcc
compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11
compiler.version=9
os=Linux
[options]
buildProject=True
clean=True
opNav=False
vizInterface=True
[build_requires]
[env]
CC=gcc
CONAN_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE=ONLY
CONAN_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_LIBRARY=ONLY
CONAN_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PACKAGE=BOTH
CONAN_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM=NEVER
CXX=g++

When the docker build process hits RUN python3 ./conanfile.py --vizInterface True --allOptPkg (defined in my dockerfile)
The conan configuration looks like output looks like

#11 3.382 Configuration:

Solution:
There was an incompatibility in conanfile.py that did not allow conan build to execute properly in the docker build process. Issue opened and workaround posted here: #131
