Installing Gossamer bioinformatics suite in your $HOME

# add the needed environmental modules to your $HOME/.bashrc (if using csh/tcsh shell you will need to add similar commands to your $HOME/.cshrc or $HOME/.tcshrc files):

echo "module load gcc/4.9.3 > /dev/null 2>&1" >> $HOME/.bashrc
echo "module load zlib/1.2.11 > /dev/null 2>&1" >> $HOME/.bashrc
echo "module load cmake/3.7.2 > /dev/null 2>&1" >> $HOME/.bashrc
echo "module load intel/18.0.3 > /dev/null 2>&1" >> $HOME/.bashrc

# request an interactive session:
qrsh   ### wait for the interactive session to start

#cd $SCRATCH     ### un-comment this instruction to build in $SCRATCH

cd gossamer/
mkdir build

cd build

make install


The make step will take sometime, at the end of "make install" the executable will be in:

to add them permanently  to your $PATH you can issue:


echo "PATH=$HOME/gossamer/bin:$PATH" >> $HOME/.bashrc
. $HOME/.bashrc
