## Singularity set-up
Load Singularity from the module system and, if you have access to `/exports/igmm/eddie/BioinformaticsResources`, set the Singularity cache directory to the BioinformaticsResources path below. If some containers for your pipeline run are not present, please contact the [IGC Data Manager](data.manager@igc.ed.ac.uk) to have them added. You can add these lines to the file `$HOME/.bashrc`, or you can run these commands before you run an nf-core pipeline.
If you do not have access to `/exports/igmm/eddie/BioinformaticsResources`, set the Singularity cache directory to somewhere sensible that is not in your `$HOME` area (which has limited space). It will take time to download all the Singularity containers, but you can use this again.
Load Singularity from the module system.
```bash
module load singularity
export NXF_SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR="/exports/igmm/eddie/BioinformaticsResources/nf-core/singularity-images"
```
Singularity will create a directory `.singularity` in your `$HOME` directory on eddie. Space on `$HOME` is very limited, so it is a good idea to create a directory somewhere else with more room and link the locations.
The eddie profile is set to use `/exports/igmm/eddie/BioinformaticsResources/nf-core/singularity-images` as the Singularity cache directory. If some containers for your pipeline run are not present, please contact the [IGC Data Manager](data.manager@igc.ed.ac.uk) to have them added. You can add these lines to the file `$HOME/.bashrc`, or you can run these commands before you run an nf-core pipeline.
If you do not have access to `/exports/igmm/eddie/BioinformaticsResources`, set the Singularity cache directory to somewhere sensible that is not in your `$HOME` area (which has limited space). It will take time to download all the Singularity containers, but you can use this again.
Singularity will by default create a directory `.singularity` in your `$HOME` directory on eddie. Space on `$HOME` is very limited, so it is a good idea to create a directory somewhere else with more room and link the locations.
```bash
cd $HOME
