Installation

Compiling Bascet

Bascet is located in a separate Github repository

You first need to download rust

To download Bascet and get the Rust dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/henriksson-lab/bascet.git   
#or: git clone git@github.com:henriksson-lab/bascet.git   

cd bascet
make install_rust  #this will install rust nightly build -- only need to do this once

To compile Bascet, you just run “make” whenever you make a change:

cd bascet
make

Editing the Bascet code

To modify the code, we recommend VSCode and in particular, install the rust code extensions.

This setup enables you to see compile errors and get hints while coding!

Accessing a locally compiled Bascet in Zorn

You can do this to link to your own Rust binary:

bascet_instance.default <- BascetInstance(
  bin="/path/to/bascet/target/debug/bascet",
  tempdir="./"
)

If you want access to all the software in Docker/Singularity, you can also pass an image; while Bascet is present, providing an absolute path like above will override it.
