Installation¶

Default¶

curl -sSL https://download.molgeniscloud.org/downloads/vip/install.sh | bash

VIP feat/installer_improvements installation running...
VIP feat/installer_improvements installation completed, execute vip/v8.3.1/vip.sh to get started

EasyBuild¶

HPC systems running EasyBuild can install VIP by adapting the /apps paths in these easyconfig files to your local environment.

Customized¶

Alternatively the VIP installer can be called providing command line parameters to change the behaviour of the installer:

bash install.sh [-v <vip_version>] [-i <vip_install_dir>] [-d <data_dir>] [-u <url>] [-p]
-u, --url       base url to download VIP resources from
-d, --data_dir  directory where VIP resources should be installed
-i, --vip_dir   directory where the VIP software should be installed
-v, --version   VIP version to be installed*
-p, --prune     remove resources from previous VIP installs that are not required for this version.
-h, --help

*: Please note that the installer might change between releases and not every install.sh will be suitable for every release. This option is intended for development purposes, e.g. to install feature branches.
