Mindboggle as node of nipype pipeline

[satra]

@9Alex6 - mindboggle and mindboggle123 are both nipype workflows. so you should be able to connect them into any external workflow. by importing them. look at how mindboggle is itself imported into mindboggle123

Hello again,
Thank you for the support, but seems like that wrapping up mindboggle commandline from inside a nipype pipeline works well already.
Apparently, the real error that stops the entire process at Freesurfer level, is due to a missing reconbatchjobs, that would orchestrate the whole Freesurfer recon-all -all process.
As an example, here is part of the log file from freesurfer run inside Mindboggle-docker container

In fact all subjects stop precisely at the beginning of autorecon2 with mris_smooth as first command due to a "reconbatchjobs" being missing.

As an update on this:
I managed to find the error. Apparently it is a problem related to Freesurfer installation, deep into nipy/nipype docker image.
In both nipype and Mindboggle docker images it seems like "reconbacthjobs" is missing. This command is necessary when running recon-all with different parameters and let it work straight to the end.

If you agree, we can close this issue, since it is a problem related to Freesurfer installation.
Please let me know what you think and if it is something repairable in other ways.

Thank you very much for the clarification and follow-up, @9Alex6 ! I will close this issue, but welcome any further comments!
