Refactor Singularity image links to use Singularity apps
Description
Currently, singularity/create_links.sh
along with singularity/libexec/kqclib.sh
is used for creating commands like kqclib and ElmerSolver to be runnable on host OS. I think the inner implementation should be changed from manual bash files runnning singularity exec
to Singularity Apps. See also Reproducible SCI-F Apps.
This would change the implementation to something standardised.
Use case
Using Singularity apps, one exposes an interface given in the Singularity definition file
singularity run --app ElmerSolver /some/path [args...]
Though the current exec solution is also possible with apps.
singularity exec --app ElmerSolver container.sif command_inside_container
The functionality overlaps with the exposed kqc
command (kqc simulate
and kqc mask
). So maybe that should kept as a main runscript instead of something like
singularity run --app kqc-simulate /some/path.py
