Getting Started

Requirements

  • Python
  • Python modules:
    • numpy
    • pandas
    • biopython
    • cython
  • C, C++ compilers (Mac users need Xcode Command Line Tools)
  • zlib (needed for Sickle)
  • PURC

Installation

git clone https://github.com/pblischak/fluidigm2puc.git
cd fluidigm2purc
make
sudo make install

The Makefile will clone Sickle and FLASH2 from GitHub and will compile them from source into a folder called deps/. You’ll need to have C and C++ compilers to do this. Typing sudo make install will copy the fluidigm2purc scripts and all of the dependencies to /usr/local/bin so that you can run everything from anywhere on your computer.
