All nf-core pipelines have been successfully configured for use on UCL's myriad cluster University College London.
To use, run the pipeline with -profile ucl_myriad. This will download and launch the ucl_myriad.config which has been pre-configured with a setup suitable for the myriad cluster.
Before running the pipeline you will need to configure Apptainer and install+configure Nextflow.
This can be done with the following commands:
Set the correct configuration of the cache directories, where <YOUR_ID> is replaced with you credentials which you can find by entering whoami into the terminal once you are logged into Myriad. Once you have added your credentials save these lines into your .bash_profile file in your home directory (e.g. /home/<YOUR_ID>/.bash_profile):
# Set all the Apptainer environment variables
export APPTAINER_CACHEDIR=/home/<YOUR_ID>/Scratch/.apptainer/
export APPTAINER_TMPDIR=/home/<YOUR_ID>/Scratch/.apptainer/tmp
export APPTAINER_LOCALCACHEDIR=/home/<YOUR_ID>/Scratch/.apptainer/localcache
export APPTAINER_PULLFOLDER=/home/<YOUR_ID>/Scratch/.apptainer/pullDownload the latest release of nextflow. Warning: the self-update line should update to the latest version, but sometimes not, so please check which is the latest release (https://github.com/nextflow-io/nextflow/releases), you can then manually set this by entering (NXF_VER=XX.XX.X).
## Download Nextflow-all
