MOLGENIS

MOLGENIS is an collaborative open source project on a mission to generate great software infrastructure for life science research. Each app in the MOLGENIS family comes with rich data management interface and plug-in integration of analysis tools in R, Java and web services.

Developing your own

Generate your own in three steps:

1) Clone the MOLGENIS generator and an empty distro:

 git clone https://www.github.com/molgenis/molgenis.git
 git clone https://www.github.com/molgenis/molgenis_distro.git
 cd molgenis_distro

2) Model what you want for your experiment in a simple XML file example db, example ui:

 <editor> molgenis.properties
 <editor> molgenis_db.xml
 <editor> molgenis_ui.xml

3) Run the MOLGENIS generator, after that you're able to use your web application. This depends per app, but in general:

 ant -f build_[APP].xml clean-generate-compile-test
 ant -f build_[APP].xml run

MOLGENIS applications

Many molgenis applications have been developed, a not so short overview:

• xQTL Workbench for multi-level QTL mapping (project)
