Run Container Locally

The main animation graph container can also be run locally on your workstation. In this section, we provide a short overview of the most important steps to set up the container.

Download the scene at https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/teams/ucs-ms/resources/default-avatar-scene.

Run the animation graph container:

docker run -it --rm --gpus all --network=host --name anim-graph-ms -v /path/to/your/asset/folder/:/home/ace/asset nvcr.io/eevaigoeixww/animation/ia-animation-graph-microservice:<latest-version>

Where /path/to/your/asset/folder/ is the directory that contains the USD scene. The scene name is defined with the environment variable IAAGMS_SCENE_FILENAME (e.g. Avatar_Scene.usda).

The animation graph container exposes a REST API documented here: Ingress
