SUMMARY:RollingGantryCrane: Automation for Unpacking Containers into HPC E
 nvironments
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nRollingGantryCrane: Automation for Unpacking Conta
 iners into HPC Environments\n\nZynda, Gopaulakrishnan, Fonner\n\nSoftware 
 containers are an important common currency for portability and reproducib
 ility in the modern world of computing. While they are easy to share throu
 gh public registries, usage documentation is often lacking, effectively le
 aving users with black boxes. RollingGantryCrane (RGC) is an open-source t
 ool that takes generic software containers and automatically exposes the i
 nternal software through LMOD environment modules. Users provide the conta
 iner URLs they wish to use, and RGC pulls the containers, collects descrip
 tive metadata from public repositories, scans for non-standard executables
  on each container’s search path, and generates LMOD modulefiles with help
  text and shell functions that transparently expose applications directly 
 to the command line interface. RGC has been used in production since early
  2019 on five production systems at The Texas Advanced Computing Center (T
 ACC), allowing users to create bespoke modules and serving over 3000 uniqu
 e tools from the BioContainers project.\n\nTag: Applications, Emerging Tec
