Setup for the workshop¶
There are four ways how you can follow this workshop:
Via
Docker
(recommended): Full workshop experience, interactive, with all software dependencies.Via
Conda
(Python): Almost full workshop experience, interactive, with onlyPython
based software dependencies.Via
Mybinder
: Full workshop experience, interactive and online, with restricted computational power.Via
Jupyter NBViewer
: Only visual exploration of the workshop content, no interactive aspect.
While option 3. is nice and easy to follow in an interactive manner and option 4. might work for a quick overview, we don’t recommended either of them as getting Docker
and Python
to work
reliably on your machine is going to be very beneficial. This holds true for the workshop and especially beyond. Via installing these tools, you will be equipped to basically continue right
away and start using them and thus ML/DL on your everyday research workflow. Having that in mind and integrating other tools/resources focusing open and reproducible (neuro-/data) science, we
generated a rather comprehensive set of install instructions below. While not all of them might be totally necessary for the workshop, they all will help you a great deal going further and
are especially useful/needed if we have to hold the workshop virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Don’t worry, you got this!

General things¶
There are a few computing requirements for the course that are absolutely necessary (beyond the few software packages we would like you to install, described below):
You must have administrator access to your computer (i.e., you must be able to install things yourself without requesting IT approval).
You must have at least 20 GB of free disk space on your computer (but we would recommend more, to be safe).
If you are using Windows you must be using Windows 10; Windows 7 and 8 will not be sufficient for this course.
If you foresee any of these being a problem please reach out to one of the instructors for what steps you can take to ensure you are ready for the course start.
Required software¶
To get the most out of our course, we ask that you arrive with the following software already installed:
A command-line shell: Bash
A version control system: Git
A remote-capable text editor: VSCode
Python 3 via Miniconda
A virtualization system: Docker
A GitHub account
Discord
A modern browser
If you already have all of the above software tools/packages installed, or are confident you’ll be able to install them by the time the course starts, you can jump straight to checking your install. The rest of this page provides more detail on installation procedures for each of the above elements, with separate instructions for each of the three major operating systems (Windows, Mac OS, and Linux).
Some quick general notes on instructions¶
There is no difference between
Enter
andReturn
in these instructions, so just press whatever the equivalent on your keyboard is whenever one is statedIf you already have some of these things installed on your computer already that should (theoretically) be okay. However, you need to make sure that you are able to complete the steps described in checking your install without issue.
For example, having multiple different Python installations on your computer can lead to incredibly frustrating issues that are very difficult to debug. As such, if you have already installed Python via some other application (not Miniconda/Anaconda), we strongly encourage you to uninstall it before following the instructions below. You must have Python installed via Miniconda for this course.
OS-specific installation instructions¶
Select the tab that corresponds to your operating system and follow the instructions therein.
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)
Search for
Windows Powershell
in your applications; right click and selectRun as administrator
. SelectYes
on the prompt that appears asking if you want to allow the app to make changes to your device.Type the following into the Powershell and then press
Enter
:Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux
Press
Enter
again when prompted to reboot your computer.Once your computer has rebooted, open the Microsoft Store and search for “Ubuntu.” Install the program labelled “Ubuntu 18.04” (not “Ubuntu 16.04” or “Ubuntu”) by clicking the tile, pressing
Get
, and thenInstall
.Search for and open Ubuntu from your applications. There will be a slight delay (of a few minutes) while it finishes installing.
You will be prompted to
Enter new UNIX username
. You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters here for your username, but a good choice is<first_initial><last_name>
(e.g.,jsmith
for John Smith). You will then be prompted to enter a new password. (Choose something easy to remember as you will find yourself using it frequently.)Right click on the top bar of the Ubuntu application and select “Properties”. Under the “Options” tab, under the “Edit Options” heading, make sure the box reading “Use Ctrl+Shift+C/V as Copy/Paste” is checked. Under the “Terminal” tab, under the “Cursor Shape” heading, make sure the box reading “Vertical Bar” is checked. Press “Okay” to save these settings and then exit the application.
(The above step-by-step WSL instructions are distilled from here and here. If you have questions during the installation procedure those resources may have answers!)
From this point on whenever the instructions specify to “open a terminal” please assume you are supposed to open the Ubuntu application.
Bash shell
You already have it, now that you’ve installed the WSL!
Git
You already have it, now that you’ve installed the WSL!
VSCode
Go to https://code.visualstudio.com/ and click the download button, then run the
.exe
file.Leave all the defaults during the installation with the following exception:
Please make sure the box labelled “Register Code as an editor for supported file types” is selected
VSCode extensions
Open the Ubuntu application.
Type
code .
into the terminal and pressEnter
. You should see a message reading “Installing VS Code Server” and then a new windows will open up.Press
Ctrl+Shift+P
in the new window that opens and type “Extensions: Install extensions” into the search bar that appears at the top of the screen. Select the appropriate entry from the dropdown menu that appears (there should be four entries; simply select the one that reads “Extensions: Install extensions”).A new panel should appear on the left-hand side of the screen with a search bar. Search for each of the following extensions and press
Install
for the first entry that appears. (The author listed for all of these extensions should be “Microsoft”.)Python (n.b., you will need to reload VSCode after installing this)
Live Share (n.b., you may need to press “Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+P” and type “install extensions” again after installing this)

Docker
Remote - WSL
Python
Open a new terminal and type the following lines (separately) into the terminal, pressing
Enter
after each one:wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
A license agreement will be displayed and the bottom of the terminal will read
--More--
. PressEnter
or the space bar until you are prompted with “Do you accept the license terms? [yes|no].” Typeyes
and then pressEnter
The installation script will inform you that it is going to install into a default directory (e.g.,
/home/$USER/miniconda3
). Leave this default and pressEnter
.When you are asked “Do you wish the installer to initialize Miniconda3 by running conda init? [yes|no],” type
yes
and pressEnter
. Exit the terminal once the installation has finished.Re-open the Ubuntu application. Type
which python
into the terminal and it should return a path (e.g.,/home/$USER/miniconda3/bin/python
).If you do not see a path like this then please try typing
conda init
, closing your terminal, and repeating this step. If your issue is still not resolved skip the following step and contact an instructor on the #help-installation channel on the BHS Slack.
Type the following to remove the installation script that was downloaded:
rm ./Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
Python packages
Open a terminal and type the following commands:
conda config --append channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority strict
conda install -y flake8 ipython jupyter jupyterlab matplotlib nibabel nilearn numpy pandas scipy seaborn
Docker
Unfortunately, Docker for Windows is a bit of a mess. The recommended version of Docker to install varies dramatically depending not only on which version of Windows you have installed (e.g., Windows 10 Home versus Professional/Enterprise/Education), but also which build of Windows you have. As such, developing a comprehensive set of instructions for installing Docker is rather difficult.
For this course, you will need to install either Docker Toolbox for Windows or Docker for Windows Desktop. Which you install will depend on your OS. PLEASE NOTE that installing Docker for Windows Desktop will disable VirtualBox on your computer. If you actively use VirtualBox we recommend you install Docker Toolbox.
(Note: the below instructions assume you are installing Docker Toolbox. Because there are fewer requirements for Docker Toolbox, it is likely that you will be able to install this more easily.)
Download the latest Docker Toolbox installer (note: that link will automatically download the file)
Run the downloaded
.exe
file and leave all the defaults during the installation procedure. ClickYes
on the prompt that appears asking if the application can make changes to your computer.Search for and open the newly-installed “Docker Quickstart” application. Again, click
Yes
on the prompt that appears asking if the application can make changes to your computer. The application will do a number of things to finish installing and setting up Docker.Once you see a
$
prompt typedocker run hello-world
. A brief introductory message should be printed to the screen.Close the “Docker Quickstart” application and open a terminal (i.e., the Ubuntu application).
Copy-paste the following commands. You will be prompted to enter your password once.
# Update the apt package list. sudo apt-get update -y # Install Docker's package dependencies. sudo apt-get install -y \ apt-transport-https \ ca-certificates \ curl \ software-properties-common # Download and add Docker's official public PGP key. curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add - # Verify the fingerprint. sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88 # Add the `stable` channel's Docker upstream repository. sudo add-apt-repository \ "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \ $(lsb_release -cs) \ stable" # Update the apt package list (for the new apt repo). sudo apt-get update -y # Install the latest version of Docker CE. sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce # Allow your user to access the Docker CLI without needing root access. sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
Close and re-open the terminal.
Type
pip install docker-compose
.Type
powershell.exe "docker-machine config"
. You should get output similar to the following:--tlsverify --tlscacert="C:\\Users\\<YOUR_USERNAME>\\.docker\\machine\\machines\\default\\ca.pem" --tlscert="C:\\Users\\<YOUR_USERNAME>\\.docker\\machine\\machines\\default\\cert.pem" --tlskey="C:\\Users\\<YOUR_USERNAME>\\.docker\\machine\\machines\\default\\key.pem" -H=tcp://xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxxx
where
<YOUR_USERNAME>
will have an actual value (likely your Windows username), andtcp=xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxx
will be a series of numbers. If you don’t get this output then something has gone wrong. Please make sure you were able to run thedocker run hello-world
command, above. If you were and you still don’t receive this output, please contact one of the instructors on the #help-installation channel on Discord.You will use the the outputs of the above command to modify the commands below before running them in the terminal. First, take the numbers printed in place of the
x
s on the output of the line-H=tcp://xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxxx
from above and replace the placeholderxxx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxxx
on the first command below (export DOCKER_HOST
). Second, take whatever value is printed in place of<YOUR_USERNAME>
above and replace the<YOUR_USERNAME>
placeholder on the second command below (export DOCKER_CERT_PATH
). Once you have updated the commands appropriately, copy and paste them into the terminal:echo "export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxxx" >> $HOME/.bashrc echo "export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/mnt/c/Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>/.docker/machine/certs" >> $HOME/.bashrc echo "export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1" >> $HOME/.bashrc
Close and re-open a terminal (i.e., the Ubuntu application). Type
docker run hello-world
. The same brief introductory message you saw before should be printed to the screen.
Note: If you restart your computer (or somehow otherwise shut down the Docker VM) you will need to re-open the “Docker Quickstart” application and wait until you see the $
prompt again before your docker
commands will work again!
If you are having problems running docker
commands in the terminal, try re-opening the “Docker Quickstart” application.
(The above step-by-step instructions are distilled from here and here. If you have questions during the installation procedure please check those links for potential answers!)

Note: If the instructions aren’t working and you have spent more than 15-20 minutes troubleshooting on your own, reach out on the #help-installation channel on the Discord channel with the exact problems you’re having. One of the instructors will try and get back to you quickly to help resolve the situation. If they’re unable to help via Discord, you may be directed to attend one of the installation office hours.
GitHub account¶
Go to https://github.com/join/ and follow the on-screen instructions to create an account. It is a good idea to associate this with your university e-mail (if you have one) as this will entitle you to sign up for the GitHub Student Developer Pack which comes with some nice free bonuses.
Discord¶
Go to https://discord.com/ and download and install Discord. Please note, that you can also use Discord through your browser if you don’t want to download it. You will be invited to the course channel via e-mail.
Modern web browser¶
Install Firefox or Chrome. (Safari will also work.) Microsoft Edge is not modern, despite what Microsoft might try and otherwise tell you.
Checking your install¶
Now that you’ve installed everything it’s time to check that everything works as expected! Type the following into your terminal:
bash <( curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PeerHerholz/workshop_weizmann/main/check_install.sh)
If you installed everything correctly you should see a message informing you as such. If any problems were detected you should receive some brief instructions on what is wrong with potential suggestions on how to remedy it. If you followed these instructions step-by-step and cannot resolve the issue please contact one of the course instructors for more help.
Yeah, you did! Great job!

Getting the workshop content¶
Now that you have installed the required software (or not) to follow the workshop, it’s time to gather the respective
materials. Please use the tab
matching your setup.
https://www.docker.com/sites/default/files/d8/2019-07/horizontal-logo-monochromatic-white.png
Once Docker Desktop is set up, open a (docker) terminal and run the following command to verify if everything is good to go:
docker run hello-world
Download workshop content
Now, the only thing that’s still missing is the actual workshop content. Do get this, use again a (docker) terminal and run the following command
docker pull peerherholz/workshop_weizmann
Given that the whole workshop content is a bit heavy, the download of this container image might take a while.
Access workshop content via Jupyter Notebooks
Once the container is pulled and on your system, you’re all good to go. To access the workshop and open the Jupyter Notebook environment, please follow these steps:
Open a (docker) terminal and run the following command:
docker run -p 8888:8888 -it --rm peerherholz/workshop_weizmann
Open http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=workshop_weizmann or http://localhost:8888/?token=workshop_weizmann in your web browser to access the workshop content.
Once Jupyter Notebook is open, double click on the
Jupyter Notebook
calledworkshop_weizmann_overview.ipynb
- et voilà.
Note: Should you by any chance encounter the following “Password or token” needed message, use the token workshop_weizmann
to login.
Important notes
Don’t loose your progress/notes
Everything you do within this docker container will be reset the moment you terminate the docker run ...
command in step one (or you close this terminal). This means, any output file created within the docker container will be deleted. Similarly, any notes and changes within the notebooks will be lost. To prevent this from happening, either (1) manually download the changed notebooks (i.e. File > Download As > Notebook (.ipynb)) or (2) create a common folder within the container and on your system and allow a direct transition of data by adding the -v
flag to the docker run ...
command.
For example, something like docker run -p 8888:8888 -it --rm -v /path/to/your/output_folder:/output peerherholz/workshop_weizmann
, where /path/to/your/output_folder
should be an empty folder on your system, such as /User/neuro/Desktop/output
.
Here’s a more detailed explanation of this full command:
docker run \ # start up a container already built or pulled
-p 8888:8888 \ # port used, <local port>:<container port>
-it \ # run Docker interactively
--rm \ # remove the container when it exits
-v ~/local_folder:/output # use local files <local path>:<container path>
peerherholz/workshop_weizmann # use specified user/project:version container
Note: The path to the folder /path/to/your/output_folder
needs to be an absolut path (i.e. it cannot be relate). So if you’re corrently in the folder /User/neuro/Desktop/workshop/
and want to give access to a subfolder called results
. You cannot use -v results:/output
or -v ./results:/output
. You either need to use -v /User/neuro/Desktop/workshop/results:/output
or -v ~/Desktop/workshop/results:/output
.
Memory issues during workshop
It is possible that you might run into some MemoryError
messages during the workshop, or that you don’t have enough CPUs for parallel process. This has most likely nothing to do with your system, and probably is due to Docker Desktop and it’s resource management. By default, Docker Desktop only uses 2 CPUs and 2 GB of RAM. You can change this default setting by opening Docker Desktop, go to Settings/Preferences > Resources. For a more detailed description see here for Mac and for Windows.
Docker is messy, clean up space afterwards
Docker is a great tool to quickly provide a out-of-the-box running computer environment. However, if you’re not carefully, it can quickly create a lot of unwanted files on your machine. To better understand these footprints and to clean out unwanted files after the workshop, please concider the following commands (run from within a (docker) terminal).
# Show all installed Docker images
docker images
# Remove a docker image
docker rmi -f $IMAGE_ID
# Remove all unused docker objects
docker system prune
# Remove everything (including images you might still need)
docker system prune -a
And should you chose to remove the --rm
string in the docker run ...
command, you can use the following commands to explore which containers are still open and potentially can be accessed once more (with their changes and additional outputs still present). Our advice is against such an approach as it can clutter your machine even quicker.
# Show running containers
docker ps
# Show all (also stopped) containers
docker ps -a
# Start a stopped container & attach to it
docker start -ia $CONTAINER_ID
# Remove a container
docker rm $CONTAINER_ID

By installing Python
on your system (i.e. specifically Conda
) and setting up the appropriate environment, you will be able to open all the Jupyter Notebooks
and go through the whole content of the course locally.
Please note that you also have to install all the necessary third-party dependencies by following the nipype
installation instructions here & here.
To get things up and running, please follow these steps:
Download the
environment.yml
file (e.g. with right mouse click -> Save As). Make sure that the file ends with.yml
and not.txt
.Open up a conda terminal (or any other terminal), and create a new conda environment with the following command:
conda env create -f /path/to/file/environment.yml
- For example ``conda env create -f ~/Downloads/environment.yml`Download the notebooks in this repository via this link) and unzip them to your preferred location, e.g.
Desktop/workshop_weizmann
.Download the three datasets ds000114, ds000228 and dataset_ML.nii.gz and put them into the workshop folder as well, e.g. at
Desktop/workshop_weizmann/ds000114
andDesktop/workshop_weizmann/ds000228
. Please do the same for this example file we are going to use in the machine learning preparation part.Next, open up a
conda terminal
(or any otherterminal
), activate theconda environment
withconda activate workshop_weizmann
(or on olderconda environment
withsource activate workshop_weizmann
formac
andlinux
andactivate workshop_weizmann
forwindows
).Finally, via the
terminal
, move to the folder where you’ve put all the unzipped content of this workshop, e.g. with the commandcd ~/Desktop/workshop_weizmann
and run the commandjupyter notebook
from the folder that contains theworkshop_weizmann_overview.ipynb
notebook.
MyBinder.org is a great service that allows you to run Jupyter notebooks in a Docker or Python environment, directly online and for free. However, this service comes of course with a restricted computational environment (1-2GB of RAM). This means, many notebooks might be very slow and some might even crash, due to not enough memory.
You can use this approach to run and test most of the notebooks and to explore the slides. To access the MyBinder instance, use this link.
https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/static/img/nav_logo.svg
If you want to go through the content of this workshop without installing anything on your machine, you should chose this approach. To see all the notebooks and slides from this workshop, please use this Jupyter NBviewer link.
Enter the matrix¶
Once you reached this point, you should be ready the enter the matrix and follow the workshop in your preferred way. Congrats, fantastic work!
