Website:JBrowse set-up on dev.wormbase.org

These are the directions for setting up a new instance of JBrowse on dev.wormbase.org, which is where the current production version of JBrowse is hosted.

Get the current JBrowse release (jbrowse.org), put it somewhere with a fair amount of disk space (current build is about 45GB)

Get a fresh checkout of website-admin (build scripts and track configs are in there)

Edit the build configuration file--only the top part should have to be changed unless there are new data types

Create a "multi-species" build shell script and run (best done in a screen process, and/or grab stdout and stderr to a file); it'll take about a day)

Update apache config to point at new build.
