bsclient v0.4a
Last updated 2015-07-21
DESCRIPTION
bsclient is a simple FTP-like command-line client for accessing and downloading data from an Illumina BASESPACE account.
LATEST UPDATE
- Added supported for downloading AppResults files (BAM, etc) associated with a project (previously supported only FASTQ)
- Improved handling of ambiguous names when navigating (force use of numeric IDs for cd/get if names are not unique)
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.
