Right now it seems that the way MoMA was run (i.e command-line argument and parameter file settings) are not displayed in the results file (i.e. neither in the exported cell stats nor in the user curation file). As a general rule, bioinformatics software that I wrote always starts the results file by simply pasting the command line and parameters that were used to obtain those results. Might be helpful to add this.

Would it be a good solution if we copy the used properties files into the export folder?

erikvannimwegen commented 8 years ago

It is not totally clear to us that this addresses the issue. Isn't it the case that the properties in MoMA can be a combination of stuff coming from the properties file + command line arguments. The file that is exported should of course contain the properties that MoMA actually used, and not just a copy of another file.

Solution we agreed upon: export saves mmprops next to other exported data. This makes is super easy to reproduce exactly this exported dataset by simply using the saves mmprops as user properties.

implemented. before closing, could you please rename the file so that it incorporates the dataset basename?
