MSKCC maintains a repositorty of FACETS data for IMPACT samples containing over 80,000 samples.
This repository is curated to have the most up to date data and incorporates algorithms for QC and identification of best fits.
This data currently is stored on terra, and you will need an account with access to the data to set up the link between the data repository and Facets Preview.
In the initial installation step outlined in the installation instructions, you should have prepared a directory structure for Facets Preview as follows:
This document will address setting up your impact/ folder.
- Setup macFUSE for running SSHFS mounts if you have not already done so.
- Add a mount command to your ~/.bash_profile on your local computer to mount IMPACT.
alias mountimpact='sudo umount -f /your/fp/directory/impact || sshfs [email protected]:/juno/work/ccs/shared/resources/impact/facets /your/fp/directory/impact -o auto_cache -o defer_permissions -o local -o IdentityFile=/Users/YOUR-USER-ID/.ssh/id_rsa -o reconnect -o transform_symlinks -o follow_symlinks' - Update your bash_profile.
source ~/.bash_profile - Mount the remote location.
mountimpact. This will create a remote mount of the drive to your local drive, in this example at/your/fp/directory/impact. Note that you may need to execute this command twice, as the first execution attempt will sometimes ask for your local adminstrator password, and the second attempt will ask for your remote login credentials. - You can confirm your mount is functioning properly by examining /your/fp/directory/impact/ or by using the
mountcommand on the command line. - When you next launch Facets Preview, on the session tab, you can setup your local IMPACT repository path using your mount directory path.
-
- You should now be able to load samples from the IMPACT repository on the Load Samples tab by DMP ID or by path.
