Add fontconfig and ttf-dejavu packages to allow running GUI-mode/x11 forwarding

[er1c]

I'm interested in getting this added to the underlying jmeter docker image, so that https://github.com/egaillardon/jmeter-plugins can get updated to use it.

This allows supporting X11-forwarding/GUI mode:

Running JMeter from Docker

JMeter Docker Image

From: https://github.com/egaillardon/jmeter-plugins

Install Quartz:

• Install the latest XQuartz X11 server (https://www.xquartz.org/) and run it
• Activate the option ‘Allow connections from network clients’ in XQuartz settings
• Quit & restart XQuartz (to activate the setting)

Run Interactive UI:

# allow access from localhost
xhost + 127.0.0.1


docker pull egaillardon/jmeter-plugins
docker run -e DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0 --interactive --tty --rm egaillardon/jmeter-plugins jmeter.sh

I also just added the alpn-boot jar/JVM_ARGS environment variable to get the HTTP2 plugin to work.

Thank you Eric. This will be included in the next image version :)

Thanks @egaillardon

It might be worth adding instructions for getting the X11 Forwarding in the README.md, I guess I was just being too lazy and wasn't quite sure how you were organizing it. I added some comments in the PR that might prove to be a good foundation for the README.md

Small note, in the change log, I would update these:

Add fontconfig and ttf-dejavu packages to allow running GUI-mode/x11. => * Add fontconfig and ttf-dejavu packages to allow running GUI-mode via x11 forwarding.

Add alpn-boot support for HTTP2 plugin forwarding. => * Add alpn-boot support for HTTP2 plugin.

The ALPN-boot is needed to support the HTTP2 protocol, it doesn't really have anything to do with forwarding. The GUI-support works through "X11 Forwarding"

Thanks @er1c
An unlucky copy paste :(
I'm going to correct and to add instructions.

Thanks @er1c @egaillardon

I found that you can use the following command to run on Linux

Run Interactive UI on Linux :

# allow access from localhost
xhost + 127.0.0.1
docker pull egaillardon/jmeter

docker run --rm -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -e DISPLAY=unix$DISPLAY egaillardon/jmeter jmeter.sh
