Hi it seems that xHLA requires Docker, which requires root access to use their daemon socket. Unfortunately I dont have root sudo access at my institution, is there another way I can install and use xHLA?

@cjieming Check out the steps in the docker file: https://github.com/humanlongevity/HLA/blob/master/docker/dev.dockerfile for the dependencies, and then formatting the database: https://github.com/humanlongevity/HLA/blob/master/docker/deploy.dockerfile

While installing some of these dependencies may still be easier with sudo access, but in many cases you may be able to get away with a local install.

@tanghaibao got it. I am trying to install them one by one. Will then run run.py in bin folder to see if things are working. Thanks!
