Sources of Information

All data is fetched from various servers, mostly RGD’s FTP site. The data can be downloaded by running the download script in the scripts directory.

$ ./download_data.sh all

Once the data has been downloaded, RatMine can be rebuilt using the build script provided by InterMine. First take down the webapp if it is running. Then run project_build from the ratmine directory. Finally release the webapp.

# in ratmine/webapp
$ ant remove-webapp

# from ratmine
$ ../bio/scripts/project_build -b -v localhost ~/ratmine-dump

#back in ratmine/webapp
$ ant default remove-webapp release-webapp

Users may be prompted to update any lists or templates that they have saved, depending on changes to the data. But it is no longer required to manually backup and update the userprofile-database between builds.
