LEGAL NOTICES: You must provide your own licenses, this only provides a way to host them for your workstation/render environment. The build script will also automatically accept the SideFX EULA, so please make sure you have read that and agree to it. By running the script you are effectively accepting it.
Clone repo to a local directory and execute docker build --build-arg HOUDINI_VERSION=<HOUDINI VERSION, I.e. 18.0> --build-arg SIDEFX_API_CLIENT_ID=<API KEY FROM SIDEFX WEBSITE FOR BINARY DOWNLOAD> --build-arg SIDEFX_API_CLIENT_SECRET_KEY=<CORRISPONDING SECRET API KEY> -t sidefx-hkey-docker:latest . to build your docker image. I don't have licensing to upload this image, hence the instructions to build your own.

The service runs on port the default 1715.
A mount volume is needed for /usr/lib/sesi-docker. In my following example laucnh command I'm mapping/binding to a local directory, ~/sesi. This is important so that your licenses remain if your docker instance restart/shuts down.
Launch command: docker run -d -p 1715:1715 --name=<DockerInstanceName> --hostname=<server.fqdn.com> -v ~/sesi/licenses:/usr/lib/sesi/licenses sidefx-hkey-docker:latest
Use at your own risk, there are no guarantees on this!
