gpas 0.2.0

A standalone command line and Python API client for interacting with the Global Pathogen Analysis Service. Supports Linux, MacOS, and soon Windows. The client uses parallelisation and asynchronous requests to improve performance, and automates client-side sample name linkage. Requires Python 3.10+.

Install

With conda

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GlobalPathogenAnalysisService/gpas-cli/main/environment.yml --output environment.yml
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate gpas-cli

With pip

Requires separate installation of Samtools and read-it-and-keep

pip install gpas

# If samtools and read-it-and-keep are not in $PATH, tell gpas-cli where to find them:
export GPAS_SAMTOOLS_PATH=path/to/samtools
export GPAS_READITANDKEEP_PATH=path/to/readItAndKeep

Authentication

Most gpas-cli actions require a valid API token (token.json). This can be saved using the 'Get API token' button on the 'Upload Client' page of the GPAS portal. If you can't see this button, please ask the team to enable it for you. If you'd like to try GPAS, please get in touch!

Development and testing

Use pre-commit to apply black style at commit time (should happen automatically)

git clone https://github.com/GlobalPathogenAnalysisService/gpas-cli
conda env create -f environment-dev.yml
conda activate gpas-cli-dev
cd gpas-cli
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --editable ./

# Offline unit tests
pytest tests/test_gpas.py

# Online and upload tests require a valid token insides tests/test-data
pytest --cov=gpas

Binary distribution

The functionality of gpas upload is also distributed as a binary packaged with PyInstaller. This is a portable, standalone executable. These binaries can be downloaded from the 'Artifacts' section of each workflow run listed here: https://github.com/GlobalPathogenAnalysisService/gpas-cli/actions/workflows/distribute.yml

Usage

cli-upload --environment dev --token token.json large-nanopore-bam.csv --json-messages --processes 1

If you encounter exceptions related to running samtools and readItAndKeep, set the environment variables GPAS_READITANDKEEP_PATH and GPAS_SAMTOOLS_PATH to the respective binary paths. Note that unlike the Python distribution, the PyInstaller binary currently only supports serial decontamination and bam conversion (--processes 1).

Creation

conda env create -f environment-dev.yml
conda activate gpas-cli-dev
pyinstaller --onefile --name cli-upload --add-data src/gpas/data:data --noconfirm src/gpas/cli-upload.py
