docker-intro

A short introduction to using Docker for Bioinformatics

Prerequisites

The following sessions assumes that you have Docker running on your computer (we tested with Docker version 18.09.7, build 2d0083d).

If you're running on a Linux host it further assumes that you have it set up in such a way that you don't have to prepend sudo to the docker command each time. There is a number of ways you can do that, e.g. by creating a docker group and adding your user to it or by running the Docker daemon as a non-root user (find some more info/instructions here). If for some reason you don't want to or can do any of these things, all of the below should also work if you simply prepend sudo to the docker command.
