LoadBatch

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

LoadBatch provides the ability to conveinently load a set of genomes or experiments in a single operation. To load a set of genomes or experiments using LoadGenome and LoadExperiment would require running the tool for each genome/experiment individually and could be very time consuming.

Inputs

Metadata File

A single metadata file that describes the data files contained is required for the load. See the metadata section: Metadata

Data File(s)

Data files can be given individually or together as a compressed tar archive file (ending in .tar.gz, also known as a "tarball").

Valid combinations of input files include:

• tarball of metadata file and data file(s)
• metadata file and tarball of data file(s)
• separate metadata file and data files

You can select and retrieve data files located at:

• The iPlant Data Store
• An FTP server
• Your computer (Upload)

Data Formats

For supported genome data file formats, see LoadGenome.

For supported experiment data file formats, see LoadExperiment.
