Check for WSL support (Linux inside Windows) #127

Closed RaverJay closed 2 years ago

RaverJay commented 3 years ago

Have a user for this, and there might be some specific errors.

Maybe someone can find time to test.

Alright. I used wsl before. I know that wsl2 and docker with nextflow works fine if you are working inside the linux pathsystem (/mnt/wsl/). (E.g. dont open e.g. win10 desktop and try to start from there).

Install docker desktop and activate wsl2 Kernel for it. Most of the issues are docker not beeing able to mount paths. But if 3verytging including input files are within/wsl/ its fine and works (tried it with what the phage)

Just a FYI, using docker inside WSL2 worked for the user I talked about, and poreCov was successfully used in field with this setup =)

@RaverJay do we have s super short "TLDR" on how to set this up? we can add this to the readme for windows users.

I can ask her, but I think it was basically just install docker in WSL2 and done, but there might be some pitfalls
