phizaz/bioconda repository overview

⁠Bioconda Ubuntu 16.04 base image

⁠Rationale

I used to use the original Miniconda docker image that is based on debian. But after many experiments I found that it has problems with R, like in the following:

/opt/conda/lib/R/bin/exec/R: symbol lookup error: /opt/conda/lib/R/bin/exec/../../lib/../../libreadline.so.6: undefined symbol: PC

I have yet to find the remedy for this, but it seems building my own Miniconda image from Ubuntu 16.04 has led to a better results.

⁠What's in the Dockerfile

• latest miniconda (https://conda.io/miniconda.html⁠)
  • python 2 :python2
  • python 3 :python3
• r-base
• git
• zlib1g-dev
• build-essential
• apt-fast (https://github.com/ilikenwf/apt-fast⁠)
• fixuid (https://github.com/boxboat/fixuid⁠)

⁠Build

# build the base image
docker build -t phizaz/bioconda:base -f Dockerfile.base .
# build the python 2 image
docker build -t phizaz/bioconda:python2 -f Dockerfile.python2 .
# build the python 3 image
docker build -t phizaz/bioconda:python3 -f Dockerfile.python3 .
