The goal of this practical is to learn how to *wrap* tools in [Docker](https://www.docker.com/what-docker) or [Environment Module](http://www.ens-lyon.fr/PSMN/doku.php?id=documentation:tools:modules) to make them available to nextflow on a personal computer or at the [PSMN](http://www.ens-lyon.fr/PSMN/doku.php).
Here we assume that you followed the [TP for experimental biologists](./TP_experimental_biologists.md), and that you know the basics on [Docker containers](https://www.docker.com/what-container) and [Environment Module](http://www.ens-lyon.fr/PSMN/doku.php?id=documentation:tools:modules) usage. We are also going to assume that you know how to build and use a nextflow pipeline from the template [pipelines/nextflow](https://gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr/pipelines/nextflow).

# Docker
To run a tool within a [Docker container](https://www.docker.com/what-container) you need to write a `Dockerfile`.
[`Dockerfile`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/Dockerfile) are found in the [pipelines/nextflow](https://gitlab.biologie.ens-lyon.fr/pipelines/nextflow) project under `src/docker_modules/`. Each [`Dockerfile`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/Dockerfile) are paired with a [`docker_init.sh`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/docker_init.sh) file like following the example for `Kallisto` version `0.43.1`:

## [`docker_init.sh`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/docker_init.sh)
The [`docker_init.sh`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/docker_init.sh) is a simple sh script with the executable right (`chmod +x`).By executing this script, the user creates the [Docker container](https://www.docker.com/what-container) for the tools in a specific version. You can check the [`docker_init.sh`](./src/docker_modules/Kallisto/0.44.0/docker_init.sh) file of any implemented tools as a template. Remember that the name of the [container](https://www.docker.com/what-container) must be in lower case.

For tools without a version number you can use a commit hash instead.
