Section: Technical Information [1/2].

In order to avoid OS-specific issues concerning computation or software installation, we prepared a Docker image (a container) including all the software you will need in this tutorial.

We set you up a list of login. Just select the ssh/apache links corresponding to your name, and you'll be ready to go!

Use:

• the ssh session (ending in :90xx/) for computation
• the apache session (ending in :80xx/)to browse/export data

Note: downloading this image will take about 3Gb space on your machine.

You need to download, install and access such Docker image, through simple steps:

• install Docker

• download the Docker image:

  • cd </user/local/dir/>
    • for example: cd /Users/aechchik/Downloads/lr_zh18/;
  • docker pull wgharib/long-reads

• follow the instructions:

  • in a terminal:

    • docker run -v </user/local/dir/>:/home/training -p 8000:80 -p 9000:443 -d wgharib/long-reads
      • for example: docker run -v /Users/aechchik/Downloads/lr_zh18/:/home/training -p 8000:80 -p 9000:443 -d wgharib/long-reads

  • in a browser (this will be the place you will use for computation):

    • connect to localhost:9000
    • click "Gate one"
    • click "terminal ssh"
    • hit twice
    • type in user credentials:
      • user: training
      • password: training

  • in a separate browser tab (this will be the place you will use to visually explore files):

    • connect to localhost:8000

Note: you have sudo privileges on this machine!
