Recipe
- Set up a repository file
- Set up configuration file
- Make launch URL
Repository file format
The repository file is a tab-delimited file where each column has a special meaning. These should be one row per session, i.e. per data set.
- repository identifier
- display name for session, should be reasonably short and informative people
- display image for session, this should be a URL
- description text for individual session, this can be html code.
- url to the session file.
An example row could be:
| fusobac | Fusobacterium nucleatum animalis ATCC51191 | http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/genomeview/supplemental/fusobacterium/broadlogo.png | Fusobacterium nucleatum animalis ATCC51191 is from a colon sample. This strain was sequenced at Baylor College of Medicine. | http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/genomeview/supplemental/fusobacterium/Fuso_animalis_ATCC51191.session |
