Keep QBiC barcode #47

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Hi,

several customers asked me, why the QBiC barcodes are not attached to the labels anymore, once the files have been downloaded. Customers would like to keep the barcodes attached to the file names as shown in the portal. Example: Representation in the portal: QABCD_file001.fastq.gz Representation after using postman: file001.fastq.gz

Best, Marie

Hi Marie,

I could not find any filtering applied to the files in the code. Hence, I feel like by the time that we find the files, the QBiC barcodes are already lost.

@wow-such-code Do you know why the files do no longer have their QBiC barcodes attached to them? Does the OpenBIS API remove the barcodes? Maybe the barcode is an extra field? Are they already removed in the DSS?

Cheers, Lukas

Hi,

this is not a problem of postman. The files might not include barcodes because they were transferred in folders which contained the barcode. Therefore I would suggest to make sure that postman downloads the folders as well.

Cheers, Chris
