Singularity simg vs sif #12

Closed davidecarlson closed 1 week ago

davidecarlson commented 1 week ago

Thank you for making this available and for including instructions on building a singularity container!

I noticed that the singularity instructions reference the .simg singularity format. However, I believe this format is outdated and comes from singularity 2.x and earlier. As far as I know, modern versions of singularity and apptainer primarily use .sif instead of .simg.

Would it be useful to replace references to .simg with .sif in the docs? If so, I can make a PR.

Thanks, Dave

Hi @davidecarlson - thanks for the comment! I'm not an expert user of singularity, though I know many users of AlphaFold have historically requested support. I'd be really happy to see a PR and I can hopefully verify it quite easily on our end.

Thanks again! Max
