Overview

 The docker system allows the distribution of pre-built computational units called images, which can be run on any system with the docker software installed. The scptools/tpp image is built 

on the biocontainer ubuntu image, and uses many of the bioC conventions. On some systems you may have to run these commands using sudo, a mechanism for elevating user privileges for specific tasks. The initial download described below will be relatively slow the first time it is run, since most if not all the 'layers' will have to be downloaded. Subsequent invocations will generally be much faster.

Downloading spctools/tpp docker image

 As mentioned above, this may be slow the first time it is run. Subsequent runs should be considerably faster.  The example below shows a pull of the latest (default) version, you can also specify a specific version if desired.
[sudo] docker pull spctools/tpp
Using default tag: latest
Trying to pull repository docker.io/spctools/tpp ...
