orthogene is now available via DockerHub as a containerised environment with Rstudio and all necessary dependencies pre-installed.
First, install Docker if you have not already.
Create an image of the Docker container in command line:
docker pull neurogenomicslab/orthogene
Once the image has been created, you can launch it with:
docker run \
-d \
-e ROOT=true \
-e PASSWORD="<your_password>" \
-v ~/Desktop:/Desktop \
-v /Volumes:/Volumes \
-p 8787:8787 \
neurogenomicslab/orthogene
<your_password>
above with whatever you want your password to be.-v
flags for your particular use case.-d
ensures the container will run in “detached” mode,
which means it will persist even after you’ve closed your command line session.If you are using a system that does not allow Docker (as is the case for many institutional computing clusters), you can instead install Docker images via Singularity.
singularity pull docker://neurogenomicslab/orthogene
Finally, launch the containerised Rstudio by entering the following URL in any web browser: http://localhost:8787/
Login using the credentials set during the Installation steps.
