Additional tools

Proteomics analysis tools can be installed and accessed as separate modules using EasyBuild, a build and installation framework for the deployment and management of scientific applications/tools on HPC systems. A brief introduction to EasyBuild is available here.

New software modules should be installed in a directory accessible from the default working tree, e.g. /work/sandbox. As a result, the sandbox software stack will be available in the UCloud workspace once the job is completed. The user should mount this folder as a data volume inside the app and make the new modules available from the command-line interface:

$ module use /work/sandbox/modules/all/

To check all available modules, use the command:

$ module avail

More commands are listed here.

Note

Environment modules are loaded automatically when the sandbox folder is mounted using the optional Modules path parameter.
