    And I'll take a look at the widget, but I'm not too familiar with such stuff...

    I have found a bug where the CLI does not work on OSX - bioboxes/rfc#186

    Hi, Anything here?

    Hi Jonathan, what can I do for you?

    hi, i try to replicate a pipeline, i port multiple tools to biobox, but i don't understand, how to make the structure of a DAG
    Michael Barton
    @michaelbarton
    The DAG?
    Creating the biobox?
    Jonathan Narvaez
    @jnarvaezp
    yes, i have a pipeline Directed acyclic graph (DAG), how implement this pipeline with biobox.

    @michaelbarton
    I think you’ll have have to ensure you can build your pipeline inside a Docker container first. Have you gotten to this point already?

    i have planned to use bioboxes to run a pipeline in different nodes, i was develop a strategy using distributed systems for processing pipelines, but i try to integrate bioboxes in my tool.

    @michaelbarton
    I see. I think I understand.
    At the moment we have biobox for a couple of applications: assembly, binning and profiling.
    To a run a biobox you will need to create a biobox.yaml for each type and pass this to biobox Docker image when you start it.
    In general, if you can run Docker on your nodes, you should be able to run bioboxes as they are a specific type of Docker image

    @pbelmann @michaelbarton Hi, I went to pull some bioboxes from the website, and the links take me to my home page on dockerhub
    For example, this link: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/bioboxes/velvet
    Seems like it should be: https://hub.docker.com/r/bioboxes/velvet/

    Also, I've seen some posts by the Galaxy community about BioContainers: https://github.com/BioContainers
    Are you familiar with this effort, and if so what are your thoughts?

    @pdblood thanks for telling us that, we are currently working on a website update. see here: bioboxes/rfc#203 . We will fix the links as soon as possible.

    Regarding BioContainers I would say that it is a great effort for integrating bioinformatic tools in docker images. In my opinion it has not the same goal as bioboxes. Bioboxes aim is to make bioinformatic software interchangeable and by doing that making it easier using multiple containers or images of one type (assemblers/profilers and so on).

    @michaelbarton
    @pdblood Thanks for all your help this weekend Phil. With regard to your comment above, I believe these links are all fixed now.

    Hi there! Is there any overview/documentation of all the possible options for the biobox.yaml files? E.g. is it possible to list more than one input file. Or how would I tell velvet (for example) that I have paired end reads? Thanks!

    @pbelmann
    @KoGro See here for all possible values for a biobox.yaml https://github.com/bioboxes/rfc/blob/master/container/short-read-assembler/rfc.mkd
