Custom Parsers in Nomad OASIS

Hi, we are getting started with our own NOMAD OASIS instance. Unfortunately I didn’t find any information on how to add custom parsers to the OASIS. From the manual, it appears as if the parser would need to be added to the container and registered in parsers.py. This however doesn’t seem to be easy to retain when updating the containers/images. Is there a straightforward way to do so in a persistent manner, that I’m missing?

The respective plugin-mechanism that would allow you to easily add parsers (and other extensions) during start-up in your Oasis is still in the making. I has high priority, but is still a matter of a few weeks. I can keep you posted.

Currently, the best option is to fork the project, integrate the parser the hard way and build you custom image.
