This repository is a historical mirror of the original Dockette Factorio desktop image. It is not actively maintained as a current Dockette image, and no dockette/factorio Docker Hub image is published for new deployments.

The maintained image for this lineage lives at dockergames/factorio. The old scripts in this repository still reference that namespace for archive purposes.

• Docker >= 1.7.0
• Graphic card
