git clone https://github.com/jkimlab/mySyntenyPortal.git
cd mySyntenyPortal
perl ./install.pl build
sudo perl ./install.pl install
perl ./mySyntenyPortal build -conf ./configurations/sample.conf
- Linux x64
- Apache >= 2.2.15
- zlib >= 1.2.8
- ImageMagick >= 6.7.x
- Perl >= 5.8.x or new
- Perl modules
To list all required perl modules, use the command below.
perl ./src/check_modules.pl
git clone https://github.com/jkimlab/mySyntenyPortal.git
To install mySyntenyPortal, use the 'install.pl' perl script.
Usage: ./install.pl [build|install|clean] <parameters>
** It requires a 'sudo' privilege for the 'install' command. **
Simple examples:
./install.pl build
./install.pl install
./install.pl clean
Commands:
build => complile third party tools and set path information
install => make a symbolic link in the web root directory
clean => clean up third party tools and remove the symbolic link in the web root directory
Parameters:
[ install ]
-webroot_path|w => Apache web root path (default: /var/www/html)
-manager_name|m => Website manager name (default: mySyntenyPortal)
[ clean ]
-manager_name|m => Website manager name (default: mySyntenyPortal)
-
Examples
You can compile mySyntenyPortal and set your own path information by one command below.
./install.pl buildTo access web interfaces, mySyntenyPortal makes a symbolic link in the web root directory.
sudo ./install.pl install sudo ./install.pl install -webroot_path [Webroot directory path] sudo ./install.pl install -manager_name [Website manager name]To clean up mySyntenyPortal, use a command below.
sudo ./install.pl clean -manager_name [Website manager name]
When mySyntenyPortal is successfully installed, you can access the website manager
-
Default
http://your.host/mySyntenyPortal -
In case of setting the custom website manager name
http://your.host/[Website manager name]
To build or remove a website, you need to write a configuration file. Then, you can use the 'mySyntenyPortal' perl script.
Usage: ./mySyntenyPortal [build|remove] <parameters>
** It may require a 'sudo' privilege. **
Simple examples:
./mySyntenyPortal build -p 10 -conf ./configurations/sample.conf
./mySyntenyPortal remove -website_name Sample_website
Commands:
build => build a website
remove => remove a website
Parameters:
[ build ]
-conf|c => Configuration file
-core|p => Number of threads (default: 10)
[ remove ]
-website_name|w => Website name
-conf|c => Configuration file
-
Examples
To build a website
./mySyntenyPortal build -conf [configuration file]To remove a website
./mySyntenyPortal remove -website_name [Website name] -
Configuration file
You can build a website by using two types of input data which are assembly sequences or synteny block definitions.
-
