2. Establish a development environment for Dockerizing services (curation OA, other web forms, postgres DB)

3. Establish a local file server for storage and download access (PDFs, dump files)
 
 
 
4. Run dockerized services from AWS
 
 
 
  5. Continuous development and integration locally -> AWS

Proposal for updating gene and variation information from WS releases

Genes

  • Have two tables:
    • One continues as is - contains only ids for the core nematode species (all have WBGene ids)
    • Second, new table - contains non-WGene ids for comparator nematode genomes
      • Include other elegans and remanei strains?
    • Would not include ids for non-WB (and WBParaSite) genomes, e.g. Drosophila or budding yeast

Variations

  • Include all variations that have a value for:
    • Method - current filters applied (filter SNP, Million_mutation, WGS's)
    • Species - all
    • Status - include all three status values (Live, Dead, Suppressed)
  • Whether a variation has a gene association doesn't matter (not a filter criteria for postgres)
  • From Paul D. - a number of variations in geneace were not making their way as individual objects to WS during the build and so were only created in WS via xref (hence the lack of other information). He's updated geneace with Species and other information wherever possible for the next build.
  • Variation merges are infrequent; previous ones may have been due to nameserver issues
  • New Methods arise infrequently, but we could check our parsing script against the list of Methods in each release to make sure we're up-to-date. Would need an inclusion and exclusion list.
