BrowseVCF 2.5
Welcome to BrowseVCF version 2.5
This release contains many optimisations to reduce disk space usage and speed up pre-processing slightly. If a VCF cannot be pre-processed for some reason, you will now get a rudimentary error message.
Windows-specific notes
For Windows, please download the attached zip file (browseVCF_win7_vX.X.zip
), unzip it somewhere, and double-click on launcher-windows.bat
in the web
directory. This version is shipped with a stripped-down WinPython v2.7.10, and the pre-compiled wormtable
module. Tested ONLY on Windows 7.
Ships with 32-bit msvcp120.dll
and msvcr120.dll
(MS Visual Studio Redistributable DLLs). Also (perhaps obviously) depends on kernel32.dll
but this is a system library and should not need packaging.
GNU-specific notes
You should have a Python 2.7 install along with the latest wormtable package (>= 0.1.5a2), psutil, cherrypy, and cherrypy-cgiserver. Simply navigate to the web
directory on the command line and run python ./launcher-cherrypy.py
.
In general, the packages should all be available via the pip tool, so it is worth installing that for the Python installation you want to use with BrowseVCF. A complete list of packages will be included in the documentation soon.
