nf-core/configs: MPCDF Configuration

All nf-core pipelines have been successfully configured for use on the HPCs at Max Planck Computing and Data Facility.

⚠️ these profiles are not officially supported by the MPCDF.

To run Nextflow, the jdk module must be loaded. To use the nf-core profile(s), run the pipeline with -profile mpcdf,<cluster>.

Currently profiles for the following clusters are supported: cobra, raven

All profiles use singularity as the corresponding containerEngine. To prevent repeatedly downloading the same singularity image for every pipeline run, for all profiles we recommend specifying a cache location in your ~/.bash_profile with the $NXF_SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR bash variable.

NB: Nextflow will need to submit the jobs via SLURM to the clusters and as such the commands above will have to be executed on one of the head nodes. Check the MPCDF documentation.
