       deb2apptainer - Build a Singularity/Apptainer image with given Debian packages

ÜBERSICHT

       deb2apptainer [-hB][-c CMD] [-f FROM][-n NAME] [-o DIR][-p PRE_SCRIPT] [-s POST_SCRIPT] packages
       deb2singularity [-hB][-c CMD] [-f FROM][-n NAME] [-o DIR][-p PRE_SCRIPT] [-s POST_SCRIPT] packages

BESCHREIBUNG

       deb2apptainer  is  a simple script which takes as input a list of Debian packages and generates automati‐
       cally a Singularity/Apptainer container including these packages. A set of freedesktop.org desktop  laun‐
       chers are also generated based on the .desktop and icon files found in the packages. In addition, a desk‐
       top launcher is created to start the container in a Terminal.

       This tool is suited for deploying applications as containers, as well as for testing Debian packages in a
       sandbox.

OPTIONEN

       -B     do NOT build the image (default is to build). A build script is generated in the DIR target direc‐
              tory.

       -c EXEC
              Command to run in the container (default to /bin/bash).

       -f FROM
              Distribution is to be used (default to debian:stable).

       -h     Show this help

       -n NAME
              Name of the image (default is built from the package list).

       -o DIR Use given directory DIR for the build (default is in /tmp).

       -p PRE_SCRIPT
              Execute the given script PRE_SCRIPT before packages install.

       -s POST_SCRIPT
              Execute the given script POST_SCRIPT after packages install.

       packages
              The package list can be any Debian package, as well as local .deb files.

ANMERKUNGEN

       You obviously require to have apptainer installed.

       Get   the  Debian  package  at:  -  https://apptainer.org/docs/admin/main/installation.html#install-debi‐
       an-packages

       Usual commands typically used to handle Apptainer/Singularity containers are:

       build  apptainer build image.sif

       run    apptainer run image.sif apptainer run –nv image.sif # with NVIDIA GPU pass-through

       info   apptainer inspect image.sif

       header apptainer sif header image.sif

       data   apptainer sif list image.sif

BEISPIELE

       Create a Singularity/Apptainer container with package x11-apps in directory /tmp/xeyes, and launch xeyes:

       • deb2apptainer -o /tmp/xeyes x11-apps

       • /tmp/xeyes/start xeyes

         A Desktop launcher is created as /tmp/xeyes/launchers/x11-apps-terminal.desktop

       Create a Singularity/Apptainer container with x11-apps and meshlab
         deb2apptainer x11-apps meshlab

       Create a Singularity/Apptainer container making sure software channels are active:

       • echo “sed -i `s/main/main contrib non-free/g' /etc/apt/sources.list” > pre.sh

       • deb2apptainer -p pre.sh x11-apps

       Create a Singularity/Apptainer container based on specific Debian version, and make use of the GPU:

       • echo “echo `deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main contrib non-free' >>  /etc/apt/sources.list”
         > pre-script.sh

       • deb2apptainer   -n   pyhst2   -f   debian:bullseye   -p  pre-script.sh  -o  /tmp/apptainer-pyhst2/  py‐
         thon3-pyhst2-cuda nvidia-smi nvidia-cuda-toolkit

       • apptainer run –nv /tmp/apptainer-pyhst2/pyhst2.sif nvidia-smi ```
