This steps you can do at the beginning of the tutorial.
For the tutorial we will use GitHub codespaces as a server. If you have access to the cluster of your institution, with the conda-package manager installed might want to try to do the tutorial there.
- You need a GitHub username.
- Go to github.com/codespaces and log in
- Create a new codespaces
- Type
metagenome-atlas/Tryitout
as the name for the repo and select it - Use 4 processor machine
- Create the instance
You have 15 GB storage and 120 core-hours free. (If you are already using codespaces intensely, we might look for another solution.)
This opens a visual studio code environment.
Make sure that the terminal
is selected in the bottom plane.
➤ Make it bigger.
➤ Run ./setup_codespaces.sh
in the terminal
This script installs mamba and sets some conda channels. If you do it on your cluster have a look at the documentation
- Create a free Rstudio cloud account here.
- Open this Rstudio online environment in a new tab.
- Click on Git then Pull Branches at the center top of the screen.
