+ | ====== Henning's Notes ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | A while back Henning gave a tutorial on using singularity. The PDF document is {{:computing:docksing.pdf| here}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Using PRESTO ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The following is based on a docker container built with the Dockerfile contained in the PRESTO package. | ||
+ | |||
+ | git clone https://github.com/scottransom/presto.git | ||
+ | cd presto | ||
+ | docker build . --tag presto:r4.0 | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | The above image was pushed to bhcpsr's Dockerhub and this can be readily accessed within Singularity: | ||
+ | |||
+ | paf0:~> setenv SINGULARITY_TMPDIR /media/titan0/sing | ||
+ | paf0:~> singularity shell -e -B /media/titan0/ docker://bhcpsr/presto:r4.0 | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you have trouble getting your display to work, try setting the DISPLAY environment variable (as set before firing up the container) and copy $HOME/.Xauthority file to the home directory within the Singularity container. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Docker on Mac ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The recent Macs with the Apple M1/M2/M3 chips might have issues when the installed docker version is not updated. Check for new release here: https://docs.docker.com/desktop/release-notes/. On 08 May 2024, version 4.30.0 worked fine on Sonoma 14.4.1. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Remove the old docker by navigating to Applications folder, and drag-n-drop docker app to the recycle bin.If there are issues in removing the docker app, stop any docker processes using the activity monitor tool (found in the Utilities folder which is listed in Applications). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now when invoking docker from command line, make sure to use ''--platform linux/amd64'', as in the example below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | docker run -ti --rm --platform linux/amd64 -v /Users/rameshkaruppusamy/DOCK:/data --name="dspsr" --hostname="dspsr" bhcpsr/dspsr:202111.1 bash | ||
+ | root@dspsr:~# export DISPLAY=134.104.30.131:0 | ||
+ | root@dspsr:~# pav -DFTp /data/2020-03-20-20\:18\:35.0024.p.calibP | ||
+ | To get X11-forwarding to work properly, install xQuartz. Make sure that you enable "Allow connections from network clients" found under Security tab in xQuartz's settings. Make sure that you allow other clients to connect to xQuartz X11 server with ''xhost +'' on a terminal before invoking your container. The DISPLAY variable is set to the current IP of the Mac. Check this with ''ifconfig | grep inet'' on a terminal and choose the right IP address. | ||
