guix genomics packages

This repo contains guix package definitions (aka guile build scripts) for bioinformatics tools that I author and deploy.

usage

To install packages from these definitions, specify the path of this repository as your GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH. For instance, to install wfmash from within this repository directory:

GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=. guix package -i wfmash

If the guix-genomics repository directory were in your home directory, you might do this:

GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=~/guix-genomics guix package -i wfmash

You do this to tell where guix to look for additional package specifications. These specifications live in the scheme definitions in this repository.

updating

To build and update a package, first change the commit id and/or version in its .scm file and then run:

tool=tool_name; GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=. guix build $tool && GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=. guix package -i $tool && git commit -a -m 'update '$tool && git push origin master
