The REPET package in a container.
The REPET package has many dependencies, including a MySQL database and the a scheduler such as the Sun Grid Engine (SGE). If you want to identify repetitive elements in a single genome, installing all of these prerequisites is quite onerous.
One of the important prerequisites are the RepBase libraries from
girinst.org. Licencing prevents
redistribution of these data, so you have to pull these in yourself
when you build the image. The Dockerfile includes a step to download
the libraries, but you need to supply your username and password to
the wget command by changing the lines:
ENV GIRINST_USERNAME AzureDiamond
ENV GIRINST_PASSWORD hunter2
to your own username and password.
After than, you can build the image by running docker build -t repet .
from the same folder as the Dockerfile.
