migrate homology files to wp-homology repo #126

Open AlexanderPico opened 1 year ago

AlexanderPico commented 1 year ago

We want to keep wp-database as slim as possible. Currently, we maintain 26MB of homology-related reference files in this repo. We should move them to wp-homology repo, which is a more natural location anyways. Specifically, then genes and homology folders.

Currently, the jar expects to find these per properties/autorun.properties. The relative (or absolute) paths between two repos checked-out in a given Action Runner is tricky to hard code in this properties file.

It might work to change them to something like "../../wikipathways-homology/genes/" or perhaps the paths could be passed in as args like "${{ github.workspace }}/wikipathways-homology/genes/".

Need to move the dirs over and then test these options.
