Once your file has no empty lines at the bottom, save the file and move onto the next instructions below.

Step By Step Instructions

  1. Add your .tsv file into the pages folder of your Andersenlab github directory.

  2. Open terminal and use the cdcommand to change directories into the pages folder in your Andersenlab github directory. If you did everything correctly, when you type ls into your terminal, it should look something like this.

What your terminal should look lik

  1. Then run the following commands in your terminal (while still in your pages directory): 
$ cp yourFileName.tsv copy.tsv

$ python addDataTogt_hmm.tsv.py

  1. After running the above commands, your sequencing data has now been added to the existing NILs dataset on Andersenlab.org. You can now remove your .tsv from the pages directory by using the rm command in your terminal.

  2. Finally, commit your changes and push your code to update the Andersenlab github.
