<h1>Welcome to IGB Quickload Main</h1> |
| 5 |
<p> |
| 6 |
Data available here are configured for visualization |
| 7 |
in the <a href="https://bioviz.org">Integrated Genome Browser</a>. |
| 8 |
These data include gene annotation files and genome information for |
| 9 |
many plant, animal, and microbial species.</p> |
| 10 |
<p>When IGB launches, it contacts a deployed copy of Quickload Main and retrieves |
| 11 |
a file "<a href="./contents.txt">contents.txt</a>" that lists all genome assemblies available for |
| 12 |
display in IGB. |
| 13 |
</p> |
| 14 |
<p> |
| 15 |
The data here are version-controlled using subversion, a centralized version-control system that |
| 16 |
attaches versions to individual files and supports checking out parts of the repository. To browse |
| 17 |
the subversion repository hosting these data, visit |
| 18 |
<a href="https://svn.bioviz.org/viewvc/genomes/quickload">https://svn.bioviz.org/viewvc/genomes/quickload/</a>.</p> |

<h2>About Quickload</h2> |
| 20 |
<p> |
| 21 |
A Quickload site is a simple system of directories, sequence files, and |
| 22 |
annotation files formatted for visualization in Integrated Genome Browser. It's a convenient |
| 23 |
way to share data sets with other labs and with the public. IGB can display the contents of |
| 24 |
many Quickload sites at the same time. This makes it easy to compare data across experiments. |
| 25 |
This makes IGB an "integrated" genome browser. |
| 26 |

<h2>About this site</h2> |
| 28 |
<p> |
| 29 |
This site is a checked-out copy of Quickload Main subversion repository, deployed in the "htdocs" directory |
| 30 |
of the apache2 Web server. |
| 31 |
</p> |
| 32 |
<p> |
| 33 |
To make the Quickload data contents easy to browse, the repository also includes styling configurations using |
| 34 |
javascript and CSS. |
| 35 |

| 37 |
<h2>How to get a copy</h2> |
| 38 |
<p>Install svn and check out the repository with a read-only user:</p> |
| 39 |
<p>`svn co --username=guest https://svn.bioviz.org/repos/genomes/quickload`</p> |
| 40 |
<p>When prompted, enter username "guest" and password "guest".</p> |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
<h2>Test a checked-out copy in Integrated Genome Browser</h2> |
| 43 |
<p>Open Integrated Genome Browser and select <B>Preferences</B> from the <B>File</B> menu. Select the <B>Data Sources</B> tab. Add the checked-out root directory as a new Quickload Data Source. The folder containing the file "contents.txt" is the Quickload root directory.</p> |
| 44 |
<h2>Add too big 2bit files</h2> |
| 45 |
<p>Some genome sequence files are so large that they are not version-controlled. One such file |
| 46 |
is `T_aestivum_Aug_2018.2bit`, a wheat genome assembly sequence file. To enable IGB users to view |
| 47 |
sequence data from this genome, add the file to directory `quickload/T_aestivum_Aug_2018`.</p> |
