Hi Peter, I don't know the answer to your question about Docker and X11. But just in case it's useful, I'll point out that the easiest way to run graph-tool on Mac is probably to use conda or homebrew. Both of those options provide pre-compiled binaries, so installation should (hopefully) be fairly quick and painless.

I'm on OSX 10.12 using XQuartz 2.7.11 I followed the instructions running: xhost +local: docker run -ti -u user -w /home/user --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix tiagopeixoto/graph-tool ipython Would you be able to share how you configured your xhost to accept connections from the docker container? Thanks for your help.
