It seems like it would be interesting and mutually beneficial to look into integration between HPCCM & EasyBuild, and I think this can be done in two main ways:
HPCCM can be enhanced to provide an easybuild function, which can be used in recipe files to generate EasyBuild commands to install software, sort of similar to the openmpi function that is already supported
EasyBuild can be enhanced to leverage HPCCM rather than implementing it's own functionality to create Docker/Singularity definition files
It's unclear to me whether HPCCM is currently ready to be used as a library rather than a command line tool, but if it's not we can probably contribute to making that work.
Maybe we should set up a conf call to discuss this further?

I was referred to this (seemingly quite new) project by @gppezzi, which is quite interesting to us EasyBuilders since we have recently added support in EasyBuild (http://easybuilders.github.io/easybuild/) to generate Singularity definition files, and (optionally) also call out to Singularity to build the container image as well, see http://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Containers.html .
