How to run toolkit without internet access #91

I'm trying to use this tool in a high-performance computing environment without internet access. I keep getting this error: "Error: Cannot connect to GitHub to get app inventory." How can I avoid this?

Unfortunately the StaPH-B Toolkit is dependent on internet access. Both the docker applications and the workflows are retrieved from docker hub and github respectively when requested and are not packaged with the Toolkit, this ensures that the user always has access to the latest versions of everything.

That said I can see how having offline access could be important in certain environments so I will add this to the planning for the next release but it may be sometime before I can add something like this.
