Talk proposal. Present new features of EasyUpdate How to support site-specific configurations for R and Python easyconfigs using bundles. And present the new features of EasyUpdate that help facilitate the bundle approach.
The bundle approach uses the EasyBuild default R and Python easyconfigs as a dependency for customized versions. This method of building custom site-packages encourages reuse of existing easyconfigs and helps reduce duplication of effort. I think sites should adapt this method of using R and Python. It encourages wider use of the EasyBuild EasyConfigs and makes local customization easier to support. A new feature of EasyConifg allows complex dependency resolution by inspection of the dependency list. EasyUpdate code has been refactored. Functions that I would expect the Easybuild framework to handle have been moved to separate Python Class. If I could get some help to map the EasyUpdate framework calls to the EasyBuild framework the integration would be quick. Have you considered adding any time for a hackathon? Having access to the core developers would be a huge help.
