Hello,
I would like to list possible necessary steps for those who want to run the notebooks on Windows 11.
You need to install Docker Desktop and follow the instructions.
Everything should run well up until downloading the data, here we must do something.
In my case, my additional steps were:
1- on the cloned repo directory run in terminal: "wsl -l"
You need it to choose Ubuntu as default, so that it shows:
Ubuntu (Default)
docker-desktop
docker-desktop-data
1.a - If you do not have ubuntu, run "wsl --install"
1.b after Ubuntu has installed, run "wsl -s Ubuntu" to make it default
2 - Go to Docker Desktop' settings and turn on this option -> Add the *.docker.internal names to the host's etc/hosts file (Requires password)
3 - Before downloading the data, understand that some scripts have different DOS/UNIX linebreaks, which means you will have to fix such scripts' linebreaks.
One way of doing this is by installing and running dos2unix on the scripts (as explained here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11616835/r-command-not-found-bashrc-bash-profile ).
So, first, "apt install dos2unix"
And then run, for instance, "dos2unix scripts\downloaders\download_bach_cello_data.sh"
4 - you can now download the data by running:
bash scripts/download.sh faces
bash scripts/download.sh bricks
bash scripts/download.sh recipes
bash scripts/download.sh flowers
bash scripts/download.sh wines
bash scripts/download.sh cellosuites
bash scripts/download.sh chorales
I hope this can help anyone running on Windows, I have written this from memory, so there might typo/ missing detail.
Thank you
