Feature request: add to Biocontainers

[wsjung]

Hi all,

It would be nice if the Dockerfile containing all the STAAR-related packages were added to biocontainers. Any interest?

Hi @wsjung,

Thanks for your comment. Sure, we plan to contact the BioContainers project and make STAAR-related packages available in BioContainers.

Hi @CristianRiccio,

The STAARpipeline Dockerfile is here.

Thanks,

Thanks @xihaoli.
I am looking for something like https://github.com/sheilagaynor/STAAR_workflow/blob/main/Dockerfile
I think that Docker Hub contains the images but not the Dockerfile.
Thanks, and best wishes,
Cristian.

Hi @CristianRiccio,

We have developed a Docker image specifically tailored to run the STAARpipeline. This image includes all necessary STAAR-related packages that have been pre-installed. We will also maintain the Docker image when the STAAR-related packages are updated. The corresponding Dockerfile starts with a base image and installs these packages. Compared with the STAARpipeline Docker image, using the Dockerfile will take additional time to install the STAAR-related packages. Therefore, we do not provide a Dockerfile at this time.

Best,
Xihao

Best,
