Description:

prepullsingularity 0.2.0

Application to populate the singularity cache. Useful for HPC clusters where
multiple nodes may pull to the same cache at the same time if images are not
yet present.

Installation
prepull-singularity is tested on python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8. It can be
installed with:
pip install prepull-singularity

How to run

Make a YAML file listing the images to be pulled.

alpine: "alpine:latest"
debian: "debian:stretch-slim"

Run the program prepull-singularity images.yml

Usage
usage: prepull-singularity [-h] [-a MAX_ATTEMPTS] [-p PREFIX]
[--stop-on-failure] [--show-output-on-failure]
[--show-output-on-success]
[--singularity-exe SINGULARITY_EXE] [--use-digest]
input

Pull images from listed in a YAML file, so they get cached and can be run
without pulling later.

positional arguments:

a map or list.

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a MAX_ATTEMPTS, --max-attempts MAX_ATTEMPTS
Maximum number of times to attempt pulling each image;
defaults to 3.
-p PREFIX, --prefix PREFIX
Prefix for the image url; defaults to 'docker://'.
--stop-on-failure Stop when pulling an image fails; by default all
images will be attempted to be pull even if one fails.

Print the stderr and stdout when pulling an image
succeeds.
--singularity-exe SINGULARITY_EXE
