How to install systemPipe Workflows

Starting with pre-configured stable workflow templates

To test workflows quickly or design new ones from existing templates, users can generate with a single command workflow instances fully populated with sample data and parameter files required for running a chosen workflow.

Load one of the available workflows into your current working directory. The following does this for the varseq workflow template. The name of the resulting workflow directory can be specified under the mydirname argument. The default NULL uses the name of the chosen workflow. An error is issued if a directory of the same name and path exists already.

library("systemPipeRdata") 
genWorkenvir(workflow="systemPipeR/SPvarseq", mydirname=NULL)
setwd("varseq")

On Linux and OS X systems the same can be achieved from the command-line of a terminal with the following commands.

$ Rscript -e "systemPipeRdata::genWorkenvir(workflow='systemPipeR/SPvarseq', mydirname=NULL)"

Check availability of workflow templates

A collection of workflow templates are available, and it is possible to browse the current availability, as follows:

availableWF()

## Available Workflow Templates in systemPipeRdata:
## Name         Description
## ------------------------------------
## chipseq      ChIP-seq
## new          New Empty Workflow
## riboseq      Ribosome Profiling
## rnaseq       RNA-seq
## SPblast      BLAST
## SPcheminfo   Chemical Informatics
## SPscrna      Single-cell RNA-seq
## varseq       Variant Calling

In addition, one can check experimental workflows available in the Github Organization systemPipeR as follows:

availableWF(github = TRUE)

## To install a workflow template from GitHub, use:
## git clone <URL>
## e.g. git clone https://github.com/systemPipeR/SPatacseq.git

Installation of experimental workflows can done by git clone the repository.

git clone <URL FROM THE TABLE ABOVE>
cd <REPO_NAME>

After the installation, start the SPR project as others.

library(systemPipeR)
sal <- SPRproject()
sal <- importWF(sal, file_path = "workflow_name.Rmd")
