Mia’s developer installation - Using virtualization

The general installation process is to first, thanks to virtualization, make running BrainVisa on your system (see Pre-requirements). Then, the installation will be almost identical to the one done directly on the host (see Installation).

You can perform the installation by following the detailed instruction provided by BrainVisa team (Developer environment installation section). In this case, skip the Pre-requirements below and proceed directly to the Installation. Depending on the solution you have chosen, go to the Singularity container or the VirtualBox virtual machine and then follow the Installation section below. For developer, it is recommended to use the Brainvisa developer image (casa_dev) in order to get the last version available of each project used in populse.

You can also follow the full procedure below which uses Singularity virtualization technology.

Pre-requirements

Installation

  • If you followed BrainVisa installation you should be in the container. Make sure to type the command bv bash if not.

  • Inside the container, get the sources code by following the instructions detailed in the installation part on host. As capsul, populse_db, soma-base and soma-workflow are already in the Brainvisa developer image, it is not necessary to clone these projects.
