bsclient v0.3.3a

Last updated 2015-05-24

DESCRIPTION

bsclient is a simple FTP-like command-line client for accessing and downloading data from an Illumina BASESPACE account.

LATEST UPDATE

  • Added command-line option to turn off SSL certificate verification, based on issues reporter by users on some systems (an alternative is to install Mozilla::CA
  • Added command-line option to specify network connection timeout

PLATFORM

bsclient is written in Perl. It is developed and tested in a Linux environment and should work with most Linux distributions with the proper modules installed. It has been tested briefly on Windows 8.1 with ActiveState Perl and appears fully functional. It has not been tested on Max OSX, BSD, or other systems - feedback from these users is appreciated.

INSTALLATION

The program is a monolithic script. On Linux, installation should be as simple as installing the necessary dependencies, copying the script to an appropriate location and making it executable. Further details are left as an exercise for the reader.

Dependencies

bsclient makes use of the following non-core modules. Some are fairly common and likely to be installed on most common Linux distros, others may need to be installed prior to using this software.

  • Crypt::Blowfish
  • Crypt::CBC
  • File::HomeDir
  • HTTP::Tiny
  • JSON
  • List::MoreUtils
  • Term::ReadKey

USAGE

See the accompanying documentation or bsclient --help.
