- Register a Webin account at ENA for submitting files
- Register a study at ENA and get a study ID
- Register your samples to acquire the sample sheet from ENA
- The sample sheet will act as a key-file linking the sample names to the corresponding ENA sample IDs. Example below:
TYPE | ACCESSION | ALIAS |
---|---|---|
SAMPLE | ERS00000001 | S1 |
SAMPLE | ERS00000002 | S2 |
SAMPLE | ERS00000003 | S3 |
SAMPLE | ERS00000004 | S4 |
SAMPLE | ERS00000005 | S5 |
SAMPLE | ERS00000006 | S6 |
- Given the typical size of a usual Fast5 dataset, ENAdumper processes and uploads one sample at a time
- The main input is a path to a directory containing Fast5 files that the user wants to upload
- Example command for uploading Fast5 data with ENAdumper:
ENAdumper --fast5_dir /path/to/fast5 --key sample_sheet.tsv --sample S1 --study PRJEB00001 -user Webin-0001 -pass Banana1
- ENAdumper will split and compress the Fast5 files into multiple batches, which can be set using the
--processes
option - After upload is complete, a template spreadsheet will be generated that can be submitted to include the files in the permanent archive
- It is highly recommended to double-check the template spreadsheet before submitting it to ENA
