GWASbot

Setup

Create a python virtual environment and install the dependencies:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Running

export CONSUMER_KEY=... CONSUMER_SECRET=... ACCESS_TOKEN=... ACCESS_SECRET=...  # credentials from Twitter
export DATA_PATH=...  # path to the data directory containing the input files
source venv/bin/activate
python src/main.py

For long-running scenario, one could do the previous commands in a tmux session:

tmux

# previous commands
# ...

# exit with Ctrl-b d

Then one can logout of the server running the GWASbot without it stopping. To reconnect to the session: tmux attach.
