Wizard download all genotype protocols unless specified #4568

Open ClayBirkett opened 1 year ago

ClayBirkett commented 1 year ago

In Wizard when selecting a genotype project and accessions the default genotype protocol will be used. This is not documented.

Improvement - If genotype protocol not specified, show in wizard which protocols contain the selections. Download all protocols as separate VCF files gzipped together.

Need to display either what the default is, or give the option to download everything or just the default one?

lukasmueller commented 1 year ago

The download would have to put the data for the different protocols in different files... Is that something you would agree with?

ClayBirkett commented 1 year ago

In theory that would be great but it seems like it would take too long. For each genotype protocol there would be a different number of accessions found. Could it present a list of protocols and the number of accessions found in each one.

Here are feature that our users have requested for genotype downloads

  1. indicate to user if the download is too large and will likely timeout
  2. download genotype data for all genotype protocols is good but should not be the default. Could display a list of protocols and how many accessions are in each protocol
  3. if download is likely to take a long time run the download asynchronously and email user when done
