mySyntenyPortal

A stand-alone application for constructing websites for visualizing and browsing synteny blocks

Quick start

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

System requirements

  • 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

Download source

git clone https://github.com/jkimlab/mySyntenyPortal.git

Installing mySyntenyPortal

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 build
    

    To 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]
    

Building or removing a website

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.

  • With assembly sequences

          # Website name (REQUIRED)
          >Website_name
          Example
    
          # Input Assemblies (REQUIRED)

          Human,Mouse medium
          Human,Cow   medium
          Mouse,Cow   medium
