Run the following command from your home directory:

cd $HOME/workshop/2024-2/session3
mkdir smrnaseq_cl
cd smrnaseq_cl
export NXF_OPTS='-Xms1g -Xmx4g'
nextflow pull file:///work/training/smrnaseq
nextflow run nf-corefile:///work/training/smrnaseq -profile test,singularity --outdir results -r 2.3.1

• Line 1: Move to your home directorythe directory created for this workshop.

• Line 2: Make a temporary folder called smrnaseq_cl for Nextflow to test the smrnaseq pipeline.

• Line 3: Change directory to the newly created folder smrnaseq_cl.

• Line 4: In some cases, the Nextflow Java virtual machines can start to request a large amount of memory. We recommend adding the following line to your environment to limit this.

• Line 5: Download and run the test code.

This will download the smrnaseq pipeline and then run the test code. It should take ~20-30 minutes to run to completion.

Move back into your home directory and create a separate rnaseq_pbsfolder:

mkdir ~-p $HOME/workshop/2024-2/session3/rnaseq_pbs
cd ~$HOME/workshop/2024-2/session3/rnaseq_pbs

Create the script file rnaseq_test.sh by running the following command:

cat <<EOF > rnaseq_test.sh
#!/bin/bash -l
#PBS -N nfrnaseq_test
#PBS -l select=1:ncpus=2:mem=4gb
#PBS -l walltime=6:00:00

cd \$PBS_O_WORKDIR
module load java
NXF_OPTS='-Xms1g -Xmx4g'

nextflow run nf-corefile:///work/training/nextflow_intro/rnaseq -r 3.14.0 -profile test,singularity --outdir results
