Packages planned to install: timm, einops

2025.10.22:

1. Change the base image from bitnami/python to official python.
2. Use USTC pypi mirror due to rate-limiting of tsinghua mirror.
3. Add packages timm, einops.

Startup command example:

# If shm-size is not specified, it may easily get out of shared memory when loading data batch for training, docker only allocates 64 MiB by default.  
docker run --gpus all -d --restart=unless-stopped --shm-size=16g --env JUPYTER_PASSWORD='<Password used on WebUI>' \
       --env JUPYTER_TOKEN='<Token for remote connections>' \
       -v <Your notebook workdir>:/app  \
       -p 9527:9527 -p 9528:6006 --name=somebottle-jupyter somebottle/jupyter-torch:0.0.7

• Tensorboard default port inside container: 6006, here I map it to host port 9528.
• Tensorboard won't start by default, please use screen -dmS tb tensorboard --host=0.0.0.0 --logdir=<Log dir> to run it in the background.

Planned new package:

• pyNVML - used to retrieve detailed GPU status info.
