In this blog post, I’ll show you guys how to make your own shiny container for your tool! Zero fuss(*) and in FOUR simple steps.
As an example, I will show how to make a singularity container for one of our public tools, ANARCI, the antibody numbering tool everyone in OPIG and external users are familiar with – If not, check the web app and the GitHub repo here and here.
(*) Provided you have your own Linux machine with sudo permissions, otherwise, you can’t do it – sorry. Same if you have a Mac or Windows – sorry again.
BUT, there are workarounds for these cases such as using the remote singularity builder here, for which you only need to sign up and create an account, and the use of Virtual Machines (VMs), as described here.
