How to build a basic Singularity container
Steps:
-
create a writable container (called a sandbox)
-
shell into the container with the --writable option and tinker with it interactively
-
record changes that we like in our definition file
-
rebuild the container from the definition file if we break it
-
rinse and repeat until we are happy with the result
-
rebuild the container from the final definition file as a read-only singularity image format (SIF) image for use in production
