Running Tutorials on Your Computer
Starting Fall 2019 we adopt docker to run our course material . We have created various docker repositories with source material freely available from github for users to readily setup and reproduce our tutorials on their own computers. These docker images can also be used as production tool to run relevant software on your computer (Mac, Linux or Windows) or even a high performance computing cluster (if properly configured) for your own data analysis.
- Instructions to setup course tutorial environment on your computer
- Instructions to run course tutorial through JupyterLab
- Instructions to run course tutorial through command line terminal
Tutorial specific instructions
Material and instructions for specific exercise are listed in each section below (only those using statgen-setup command are relevant to our docker based tutorials). They provide links to materials and a minimal set of commands to use for launching and running an exercise.
We use a script "statgen-setup" to start the docker based environments for these tutorials. Please refer to the previous section for instructions on the installation of this script.
Alohomora
Annotation
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial annovar
Annovar MEndelian
Cochran Armitage Trend Test
Epistasis (PLINK and CASSI)
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial epistasis
FastLMM
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial fastlmm-gcta
GCTA
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial fastlmm-gcta
Gemini
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial gemini
Genehunter
To install from packages, follow the configuration steps above and run the following command.
sudo apt-get install genehunter-tutorial
The exercise's files will then be installed in the folder /home/shared/genehunter. You can run from there or copy the files into your user's home directory and proceed with the exercise.
GWAS: Data Quality Control
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial plink
GWAS: Association Analysis Controlling for Population Substructure
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial plink
Homozygosity Mapper
IGV
Linkage/FastLinkage
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial mlink
Pleiotropy
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial pleiotropy
Polygenic risk prediction (NPS method)
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial nps
Polygenic risk prediction (LDpred2 method)
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup launch --tutorial ldpred2
Then follow prompts on the terminal output to open up the JupyterLab server in your web browser. If it is the first time you start this server, please open a command terminal inside JupyterLab, and type
get-data
to load the data-set to the JupyterLab workspace.
Population Genetics
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial popgen
PSEQ
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial pseq
REGENIE
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup launch --tutorial regenie
Then follow prompts on the terminal output to open up the JupyterLab server in your web browser. If it is the first time you start this server, please open a command terminal inside JupyterLab, and type
get-data
to load the data-set to the JupyterLab workspace.
Regression
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial regression
RV-TDT
Installing Packages
To install from packages, follow the configuration steps above and run the following command.
sudo apt-get install rvtdt-tutorial
The exercise's files will then be installed in the folder /home/shared/rvtdt. You can run from there or copy the files into your user's home directory and proceed with the exercise.
SEQLinkage
To install from packages, follow the configuration steps above and run the following command.
sudo apt-get install seqlinkage-tutorial
The exercise's files will then be installed in the folder /home/shared/seqlinkage. You can run from there or copy the files into your user's home directory and proceed with the exercise.
SEQSpark
Installing Packages
To install from packages, follow the configuration steps above and run the following command.
sudo apt-get install seqspark-tutorial
The exercise's files will then be installed in the folder /home/shared/seqspark. You can run from there or copy the files into your user's home directory and proceed with the exercise.In order for the commands to work correctly, you don't need to reboot, but you should log out and log back in to make sure that the computer's environment is correctly configured.
SLINK
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup login --tutorial slink
SUPERLINK
Variant Association Tools
To run the exercise from docker image provided,
statgen-setup launch --tutorial vat
Then follow the prompts on the terminal output to open up the JupyterLab server in your web browser. You should find the exercise notebook in the side panel, and you can click to open it.
