can't download Phel fasta file for HW #65

Closed nclowell closed 7 years ago

nclowell commented 7 years ago

I manually downloaded the Phel_countdata.txt file by clicking "raw" on Github and saving the page as a text file. The Phel_transcriptome.fasta is too big to do that so I'm trying to do it from the command line.

I used curl https://github.com/sr320/eimd-sswd/blob/master/data/Phel_transcriptome.fasta > /users/natalielowell/Git-repos/FISH546/Seastar-HW/output

And it spit out % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 34271 0 34271 0 0 61448 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 62310

And the file it saved is a few KB and not right file. Help?

You downloaded this webpage https://github.com/sr320/eimd-sswd/blob/master/data/Phel_transcriptome.fasta

It is VERY confusing as the url does end in .fasta

apge

The data URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sr320/eimd-sswd/master/data/Phel_transcriptome.fasta

Hint: click view raw or Download button

Thanks! I got the url for the page with the fasta from Mary. Although it's unclear how she got it. Maybe a Windows/Mac difference?
