Check out or update a copy of IGB QuickLoad source code (src) directory.

As before, open a terminal and change into the directory where you want your checked-out copy of the genomes src code to reside. A good place for checked-out code is a directory named src in your home directory.

To set up a src directory for checked-out code:

Code Block

cd 
mkdir src
cd src

Then, use svn to get a copy of the QuickLoad source code from the repo and save it to a directory named quickload_src:

Code Block

$ svn co https://svn.transvar.org/repos/genomes/trunk/pub/src quickload_src

To ensure that you'll be able to run the code, add the new directory to your PATH and your PYTHONPATH environmental variables by editing your .bash_profile startup script:

Code Block

export PATH=$HOME/src/quickload_src:$PATH
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/src/quickload_src:$PYTHONPATH

Test that it worked by opening a new terminal and typing sample.py at the prompt. If your path is correctly configured, the script will run without error.
