Copy of nclack's whisk1.1.0 pre-built binaries for linux. Easier than compiling from source, download links on Janelia's page are broken, and made a couple minor fixes to address how the python module "whisk" is handled, as recommended by cxrodgers.
First clone the repository: change to the directory you want to place the repo (i.e. LOCATION) and clone it:
cd LOCATION
git clone [email protected]:elyall/whisk.git
Add the binaries to your $PATH variable by adding the following line to your ~/.bashrc:
export PATH="LOCATION/whisk/bin/whisk:$PATH"
Reload .bashrc (. ~/.bashrc), then test they are on your path by typing into the terminal: trace
Create a python 2.7 conda environment via:
conda create -n whisk python=2.7
Some outside dependencies may need to be installed via conda install or pip install. Next, add the python scripts to your python path. One way to do this is by typing the following into a terminal:
echo "LOCATION/whisk/share/" >> ~/anaconda/envs/whisk/lib/python2.7/site-packages/whisk.pth
You can test if this works by running python and inputting: from whisk.python import trace
