How to run biser

aravindpad opened this issue · comments

Hi,
Thank you for fixing my previous issue. I was able to build the container and run it to a sh.
As I'm an admin setting up this on the cluster for a user, could you please update how to run the 'biser' as I could not find an executable for the application.
Thank you

Hi Any help

Hi @aravindpad

The best way to do this is to issue pip install biser (in a Linux container environment, if you prefer) and then just run biser [args] or python -m biser [args].

Hi,
I was following instructions on the docker build. Looks like the docker has only windows binary right. Ok thank you for the info. I'll just do pip install.
I was under the impression that biser was already per-installed in the docker.
Thanks

No, Windows is not supported by BISER. Only Linux binaries are available.

Instead of using the provided Dockerfile which is intended for from-scratch compilation, I'd suggest just using pip install--- much easier to build and deploy.

Hi,
Thank you. I just found an exe for biser so i thought it's supported.
sh-4.2# cd /github/biser/build/lib/biser/exe
sh-4.2# ls
biser.exe libcodonrt.so libomp.so
sh-4.2#

My users were facing issues with pip install, that's why I thought about trying out the docker. I was able to get the docker running but it was missing the binary.
Thanks for your help. I'll pip install biser in the docker.

biser.exe is a Linux executable; the extension is bit misleading, though :)

Oh That's good to know, in that case I can try to run it :-)
