Ox-related procedures

In this section, we will show you a few things related specifically to running code reproducibly with Ox. For more general debugging tips for this and other computer languages, see our wiki.

Files

Ox uses the file extension .ox.

Instructions

Ox is not installed on any of our machines. The best way to run it is to use Docker on BioHPC.

• Run the Docker image you will have built.

• Inside the running container:

  • Run oxl filename | tee filename.log to save the log files (modify filename as needed.)

  • If need to modify files as instructed by the authors, exit the Docker container and type gedit filename, or do so from your VSCode window.
