Interactive Build

1) Open an issue to get access to the interactive container build system

https://github.com/NeuroDesk/neurocontainers/issues/new

• describe which container you would like to add
• wait for a reply on your issue that your account has been setup

2) Access the container build system

https://labtokyo.neurodesk.org/

• authenticate with your github account
• select a CPU session or a GPU session (if your container requires a GPU)
• open a Neurodesktop session

3) Run the interactive build process

• open a Terminal session
• run:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/NeuroDesk/neurocontainers.git
cd neurocontainers/interactive_builder/
git pull
./run_interactive_builder.sh

• Follow the instructions of the interactive build tool. After a couple of seconds where the base image gets updated you should see a “root@neurodesk-builder:~$>” shell. Now run the commands to get your tool to work.
• Once the tool works, hit CTRL-D or type “exit”
• Then answer more questions in the build tool

4) Submit the generated build.sh and Readme.md file as attachments to your issue

• once completed, download the build.sh and README.md file and submit them as attachments to your github issue
