Neuro-Ansible

This Ansible project is to develop and deploy the Neuroimaging tools for Neuro-Pypes and Nipype.

Installation

You need a Python environment and install the dependencies:

pipenv install

Running

To configure and deploy in a remote machine, do:

./playbook.yml -l neuro --extra-vars="ansible_host=<ip_address> ansible_user=<user_name> n_cpus=4" -K

Have a look at the ansible-playbook instructions for more details on how to use the command line.

Testing

This project includes a Vagrantfile. With vagrant you can launch a Debian VM and provision it with this project.

For that, do:

vagrant up

Docker image

It is possible to create a Docker image with Ubuntu provisioned with the neuroimaging tools through this project. For that to work you need to install Packer and run:

make docker-image

This command will export a file name neuro_docker.tar.lz4 which is a compressed docker image that can be imported.

Docker run

Another option is to use the command:

make docker-run

which will provision a new local running container.
