A toolbox for building everware containers

Tools for constructing containers that work with everware.

This repository contains example containers, documentation and tools for designing a docker container for your repository.

Tools

run_local.sh

To help with testing your setup and running your repository on your local machine there is the run_local.sh script.

Containers

Basic docker containers for use with everware. These serve as documentation/specification for what a container has to do to be everware-ready.

They are as basic as possible, so probably not so useful for actually running your repository.

base

This is the most barebones container that will work with everware. If you want to create your own use this one as a starting point. The important thing is to configure your container to RUN the singleuser.sh script in the same way that this one does.

The single user jupyter notebook is based on python 3 and needs things like tornado installed.

We use anaconda as python distribution, it is just easier that way.

In addition to the basics this container also includes a python2 kernel.

Build the image with:

cd base
docker build -t everware/base .

science-python

This is a container based on everware/base that includes a few more science-y libraries. Use it as an example of how to extend everware/base for your repository.

Build the image with:

cd science-python
docker build -t everware/science-python .
