ICDC model-tool-d

This is a wrapper around a Dockerized version of model-tool. It's intended to work exactly as if model-tool, will all its Perl and Graphviz dependencies, were installed on your system.

Note the script is called

 model-tool-d

with -d.

Install

You need Docker installed on your machine. Recommend Docker Desktop (Community Version) for Win or MacOSX.

• Get a Docker Hub ID if you don't have one already. Just follow the sign-in/create account steps in the desktop app, or go to https://hub.docker.com/.

• Clone this repo

    git clone https://github.com/CBIIT/icdc-model-tool-docker.git 
  

• Move to distribution directory

    cd icdc-model-tool-docker
  

• Easy build:

  • Get the "cpanminus" tool:

    curl -L https://cpanmin.us | perl - App::cpanminus     # or
    wget -O - https://cpanmin.us | perl - App::cpanminus
    

  • Run the following on cmd line; don't skip the tests

    perl Build.PL
    ./Build
    sudo ./Build installdeps --cpan_client cpanm
    ./Build test
    sudo ./Build install
    

  • Try it!

    $ model-tool-d # should output..
