Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:19:01): > Will there be a new repository for workshops? or is the plan to develophttps://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshopsas a central collection of workshops, that would then be selectively associated with the appropriate Bioc20xx repository? - Attachment (GitHub): Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops > Workshops for learning Bioconductor. Contribute to Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops development by creating an account on GitHub.

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:20:19): > I’m asking mostly because theBiocWorkshopsrepo doesn’t have a date in its name

Martin Morgan (12:27:14): > Good question! Seems like the last workshop could be tagged with a ‘release’ (e.g., for the Bioconductor version in use at the time) and then continue development of BiocWorkshops? With a way (maybe it exists?) to selectively include content… (I’m not the boss on this one, just idle speculation)

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (12:33:56): > Ok. I’ll just sit tight, and keep drafting my workshop proposal while waiting for further instructions then. I’ve seen the opening of registration pushed back (currently “Registration will open by Nov 19, 2018.”), and there’s obviously loads of time before any kind of deadline.

Levi Waldron (15:56:56): > You might submit both 1 and 3 before the workshop so you can mention them both in the travel scholarship application. Then yes, wait for the scholarship decision before registering.

Stephanie Hicks (21:12:34): > @Levi WaldronI have a question about how you used bookdown for the bioc workshops (https://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops).@Rob Amezquitaand I are interested in using bookdown for a similar type of project (to build a set of case studies), but for a manuscript that we’re writing. Did you build each chapter one at a time locally or on a cluster? If certain.Rmdfiles needed e.g. lots of memory to run something on a cluster, did you save intermediate data objects? Thanks in advance!

2019-01-12

Levi Waldron (05:23:26): > Hi@Stephanie Hicks- we did build chapters one at a time (locally) for testing purposes (individual authors according to the instructions athttps://github.com/Bioconductor/biocworkshops, plus I wrote a script that is currently lost in my school’s melted server for looping this over all workshops). But for the book as a whole it was a single build, also locally (see the file _build.sh at the above URL), because we didn’t figure out a way to use intermediate files from individual builds to create the full book (@Sean Davishave you figured out anything since then?). With chunk caching, it ended up regardless being fairly practical to build the whole book on a single core. BTW there’s more discussion of our experiences athttps://f1000research.com/articles/7-1656/v1. - Attachment (f1000research.com): F1000Research Article: Orchestrating a community-developed computational workshop and accompanying training materials. > Read the latest article version by Sean Davis, Marcel Ramos, Lori Shepherd, Nitesh Turaga, Ludwig Geistlinger, Martin T. Morgan, Benjamin Haibe-Kains, Levi Waldron, at F1000Research.

Levi Waldron (05:30:56): > This reminds me that it would not be too early for us to start preparing for the BioC2019 workshop book, especially if we are going to do it differently such as using git submodules and individual repositories. Also that the .epub and .pdf Bookdown output was still too buggy to feel good about submitting toleanpub.orgorbookdown.org.

Sean Davis (16:09:17): > The default is to do what we did last year which worked reasonably well. I have not worked on a better solution yet. It would be good to hear thoughts and feedback from folks on last year’s process and possible improvements.

2019-01-13

Levi Waldron (03:28:04): > Agreed, I thought it worked even more than reasonably well. The most noticeable improvement would be some form of continuous integration, but most workshops were submitted with few or no errors anyways. I’ll contact Travis to ask about Enterprise pricing for us, if it’s not too much that could be an easy fix.

Stephanie Hicks (14:28:08): > @Levi Waldronthanks! I’m still learning about bookdown, so I don’t quite undersand all the nuances yet. When you say the.pdfbookdown output was still too buggy, what was the problem?

Stephanie Hicks (14:28:27): > Trying to decide if this is a good idea to go forward with. Thanks again for your help!

Levi Waldron (14:45:31) (in thread): > This issue references the two problems: images stayed their original size, and some text (maybe code? Don’t remember just now) didn’t wrap. Should be solvable but I didn’t yet really try.https://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops/issues/52

2019-01-14

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (18:26:13): > If you need a guinea pig for the submission of workshop proposals, I’m happy to hear feedback –>https://github.com/kevinrue/BioC2019/tree/isee/docs

2019-01-15

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (02:07:24): > One detail I’d ask about is about hypertext links, is there a preferred way between: > - explicitly writing URLs (seems most common in past workshops)? > - using text syntax where the URL is usually not visible, aside from mouse hover in HTML format? > and package names: > - linking packages to their bioc or CRAN landing page? > - writing package names in plain text (seems most common)?

Levi Waldron (10:07:36): > Thanks@Kevin Rue-Albrecht! The workshops page from last year washttps://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops(not related to the BioC2018 or BioC2019 repos). You pose excellent questions that we didn’t think of last year but can be more explicit about this year. If you want to be really helpful, you could fork fromhttps://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops, build your workshop individually according to the README.md instructions, and tell us which works best across all output types (html, pdf, epub). Although we didn’t succeed in making presentable enough pdf and epub versions last year, I think we will this year, so we can also distribute on Leanpub and Bookdown.

Levi Waldron (10:09:06): > BTW your syllabus looks great - the only suggestion I thought of is that the 2-hour workshops actually only last 1h50m, so you could update your time outline.

Levi Waldron (10:12:54): > <!channel>I’ve posted a number of options for accommodations athttp://bioc2019.bioconductor.org/travel-accommodations, ranging from as low as $97-157+tax in Long Island City (~25 minutes away with subway, ~50 minutes walking) to $211-272 in Manhattan within short walking distance of the venues. - Attachment (BioC 2019): BioC 2019: Where Software and Biology Connect > Where Software and Biology Connect.

Levi Waldron (10:18:35): > Many of the hotels offer free cancellation up until a few days beforehand. Prices are likely to go up as the conference nears, so it’s probably a good idea to reserve early even if you’re not sure yet about your travel dates.

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:28:06) (in thread): > Thanks! > Good point. It did cross my mind while I was picturing a realistic timeline, but then I saw that last year’s final schedules filled the whole 2h (e.g.https://bioconductor.github.io/BiocWorkshops/analysis-of-single-cell-rna-seq-data-dimensionality-reduction-clustering-and-lineage-inference.html). - Attachment (bioconductor.github.io): The Bioconductor 2018 Workshop Compilation > This book contains all the workshops presented at the Bioconductor 2018 Conference

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:28:23) (in thread): > Probably a good thing to point out in the syllabus template

Levi Waldron (10:28:35) (in thread): > Yes

Levi Waldron (10:29:09) (in thread): > I think we posted the template last year before making the schedule, and hadn’t thought of the time between sessions…

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:45:27) (in thread): > I just realized that I had already forked BiocWorkshops. However, I kept myself from working on it when I read more carefully the “Workshop Submission Form” that says: > > Please use the syllabus template athttps://github.com/Bioconductor/BioC2018/blob/master/resources/workshop-syllabus.md.

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (10:46:32) (in thread): > Another thing to edit in the bio2019 website, I’d suggest, if you prefer applicants to work onhttps://github.com/Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops

Davide Risso (10:49:31): > For those on a tight budget I really recommend LIC! It’s really close to Rockefeller (1-2 subway stops on the N line + 15 minutes walk or 4 subway stops + 5 minutes walk on the N -> Q). Plus LIC / Astoria have a pretty nice night life with bars and restaurant so you don’t have to go back to Manhattan if you want to stay close to the hotel at night.

Davide Risso (10:50:11) (in thread): > can you tell I miss living in Astoria?:stuck_out_tongue:

Levi Waldron (10:51:17) (in thread): > Good point, yes we’ll make it clear that editing will be done on Bioconductor/BiocWorkshops (or a new year-specific workshops repo), and move the template there.

Levi Waldron (10:51:59) (in thread): > I would’ve have guessed! I was impressed by how affordable hotels there are.

Stephanie Hicks (13:10:14): > Thanks@Levi Waldron@Davide Risso!

Sean Davis (10:44:48): > I’d like to open a likely somewhat technical discussion on how to best structure workshop materials and builds for 2019. Should we do that here or open another channel?

2019-01-18

Levi Waldron (00:53:29) (in thread): > Here seems like as good a place as any?

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (02:41:38): > Btw, as feedback on the book-building aspect, I had to “manually” install the following: > > BiocManager::install(c("AnnotationDbi","AnnotationHub","biomaRt","BSgenome","BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19","EnsDb.Hsapiens.v79","EnsDb.Mmusculus.v79","Homo.sapiens","hugene20sttranscriptcluster.db","org.Hs.eg.db","Organism.dplyr","TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene")) > > before I coulddevtools::github_install("jmacdon/Bioc2018Anno")

Sean Davis (11:39:09): > I have been putting a little thought into the next iteration of the BiocWorkshops. For the purposes of modularity, testing, and reuse, I think there is a benefit to going back to single-workshop repos with each workshop having its own repo rather than the current single-package with many Rmd files in it.

Sean Davis (11:41:35): > Each workshop repo: > 1. Is a formal R packages > 2. Can contain code and data > 3. Contains a workshop materials Rmd file (just a vignette in the package) that will end up as a chapter in a master workshop book

Sean Davis (11:43:39): > The master workshop repo would also be an R package and would contain _bookdown.yml as well as build scripts. The DESCRIPTION file would contain Imports to each of the workshop repos, along with corresponding remotes (which allow versioning).

Sean Davis (11:45:29): > For the above approach to work, we would need a mechanism to provide the workshop Rmd file path for each repo. We would need scripts to checkout (perhaps as git submodules) each repo and link to the Rmd file to allow building the book. Installing the book would result in installation of all dependent workshop packages.

Sean Davis (11:47:50): > Advantages of this approach include: > 1. Improved modularity of workshops > 2. Flexibility with respect to changing workshop content (including or excluding materials) > 3. Allows each workshop to include code and data as well as RMD. > 4. Still benefits from complete version control of materials. > 5. Contributions can, in theory, be checked at pull request time without rebuilding the entire book, allowing for partial integration testing.

Sean Davis (11:52:15): > I’d be very interested to hear any thoughts.

Sean Davis (11:54:45) (in thread): > :+1:Started….

Martin Morgan (12:46:05): > Sounds like a good approach to explore; packages are ‘easy’ to do these days. Also the versioning and metadata (e.g., package dependencies) are managed by the package, which seems good. > > I guess there are ‘global’ requirements, e.g., everyone is using bioc-3.9; how would these be enforced? > > Would the individual workshop repos be hosted by the individual and cloned into a standard location?

Sean Davis (12:51:57): > Good points, Martin. As for global requirements, I cannot think of an easy way of “enforcing” a particular R or Bioc version. However, integration testing can catch problems, at least in theory. In the past, having each workshop build on the AMI (or other infrastructure) with installed R was enough to eliminate problems. If each package is self-contained, folks can do their own testing and development; this has been problematic in the past with the “big book” approach.

Sean Davis (12:55:17): > As for hosting, I think having individuals host their own repos makes the most sense. I think we have found that an immortalized source repo for posterity sake is not that valuable; the machine image is really the artifact of interest (unfortunately).

2019-01-19

Martin Morgan (11:21:13): > One thing about forking a repository is that when the upstream contributor loses interest the repository is still there for use and further update.

Levi Waldron (17:10:56): > @Sean Davis, what was the software you showed me for wrapping a Docker container within bash scripts and pipelines? I’ve been fiddling with Docker and was thinking it would be useful and maybe not that difficult to make an alternative toR CMD BiocCheckandR CMD checkthat actually runs these inside the bioc-devel Docker container rather than in the host system.

Sean Davis (17:13:17): > Assuming that you have a docker container with relevant software installed: > > docker run -v /path/to/hostvolume:/path/in/container -ti leviwaldron/leviscontainer R CMD BiocCheck /path/in/container/pkgname.tar.gz >

Levi Waldron (17:14:05): > So not even necessary to use any fancy pipeline-building software:slightly_smiling_face:

Sean Davis (17:14:35): > Nope.

Sean Davis (17:15:36): > However, putting Bioc inside a docker container is not a great “general” solution given the size of some packages.

Sean Davis (17:16:40): > Docker has a default image size max of 10GB.

Sean Davis (17:16:59): > That can be changed, but it requires a docker restart, I think.

Levi Waldron (17:18:01): > You can use a volume also for site libraries, but I think it requires a modification to the current base2 & core2 images to add a third, empty site library, that you can mount locally.

Levi Waldron (17:19:11): > So you would just need a script with step 1) install all dependencies, 2) check

Sean Davis (17:19:35): > Sounds right.

Sean Davis (17:20:54): > What did you have in mind with respect to the docker approach? Use for workshop developers? Use for delivering workshop material? Or just in general?

Levi Waldron (17:22:36): > Either 1) for facilitating authors checking against the correct environment locally, or 2) setting up our own continuous integration system

Levi Waldron (17:25:14): > Also, I watched a kubernetes video that got me thinking about having a system that would pull tagged commits and automatically build chapters or the entire book (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOa_llowQ1c) - Attachment (YouTube): Kubernetes The Easy Way! (For Developers In 2018)

Sean Davis (17:30:51): > Yes, kubernetes could be useful; there are all sorts of ways to go about automation in the cloud.

Levi Waldron (17:34:24): > BTW I made a minimal layer on top of devel_core2 to allow me to use a local volume for installed packages, with an invocation script that includes mounting a host home and packages directory. More to make it easier for beginners like myself a couple weeks ago to use the Bioconductor docker containers locally.https://github.com/waldronlab/bioconductor_devel

Levi Waldron (17:36:54): > Between myself and Sehyun in my lab (who’s also been studying up on Docker and cloud platforms) I have some bandwidth to implement something like this if you could help outline a sensible plan…

2019-01-20

Levi Waldron (14:24:25) (in thread): > You did show me another piece of software though, that provided an example of an RNA-seq pipeline using a couple Docker containers, invoked from a single command-line script…

2019-01-21

Levi Waldron (05:26:07) (in thread): > To initiate this approach, we should provide a workshop package template that includes travis-CI integration. We can then put all the badges in a table on the master workshop repo, to get an overview of the build status of workshops.

Levi Waldron (05:29:39) (in thread): > git submoduleseems to have built-in freezing and updating of the submodules, I think providing the functionality we need there to test the master workshop repo during development and freeze at the final update deadline.

Avi Srivastava (15:42:46): > Hey guys, I’ve got a quick question. In@Peter Hickey’s awesome workshop ondelayedMatrixat bioC, I observed that the tenx 1M cell mouse data was present somewhere in the cloud (ExperimentHub ?) which makes it easy to pull for quick analyses. If I wan’t to upload the gene-count matrices, say for various 10x data on their website, using alevin as the quantifier what would be the easiest way to do that ? Just as a side note, alevin has its own sparse format, which is designed for storing inferential replicates of each cell while also keeping the gene-multi-mapped reads. The plan is to run alevin on some subset of widely used 10x datasets, process it through tximeta pipeline, produce SCE object and finally store it in the cloud. It’d be great if the objects are updatable based on the new versions of alevin, as we release. The object generation pipeline is already pushed in tximeta and we are working on testing some of the stuff.

Aaron Lun (15:44:50): > sounds like a good candidate for anotherTENxAlevinEHub package.

Aaron Lun (15:45:04): > Though perhaps we should consolidate the variousTENx*Datapackages.

Avi Srivastava (15:51:33): > Yea I like the idea of consolidated data. I am new to the ExperimentHub, bioconductor in general, and was wondering how customizable/updatable the Ehub data is ? Also how much data can be stored if we wan’t to, say store any 10x based cell atlas ?

Nitesh Turaga (15:54:30): > https://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/vignettes/ExperimentHub/inst/doc/CreateAnExperimentHubPackage.htmlThe experiment hub data resources are very updatable.

Nitesh Turaga (15:59:15): > As per my knowledge, they don’t have a size limit. But@Lori Shepherdmight know better.

Michael Love (16:14:21): > Just started importing this Alevin format into R today. I forgot to check the in memory size but will report back soon

Michael Love (16:14:59): > On disk 900 mouse neurons is 4 Mb for just counts, 8 Mb for variance, 70 Mb for the bootstraps

Michael Love (16:15:05): > This is sparse storage

Michael Love (16:18:56): > It’s in tximportData and the new importer is in tximport

Michael Love (16:30:48): > For.rda/ in-memory, usingMatrix::sparseMatrix, it’s 7 Mb / 40 Mb for the counts, same for the variance, 128 Mb / 650 Mb for the inferential replicates (20 bootstraps)

Levi Waldron (18:32:47) (in thread): > But only updatable by creating a new resource or over-writing the old one; there is no concept of versioning. That’s an issue I’d really like to resolve in ExperimentHub 2.0.

Aaron Lun (18:40:27): > I usually put my content in an explicit folder referencing the version from whence it came.

Aaron Lun (18:40:38): > so e.g.,scRNAseq/zeisel-brain/2.0.0/counts.rds.

Aaron Lun (18:40:57): > And then if I have new stuff I just make2.0.1or whatever.

Aaron Lun (18:41:14): > And provide the R function with aversion=argument to allow users to switch between new and old versions.

Avi Srivastava (20:27:07) (in thread): > Thanks for the heads up@Levi Waldron, that’s what I was trying to get at.

Avi Srivastava (20:29:13): > Thanks@Aaron Lun, I’ll shadow theTenXDatapackage .

Lori Shepherd (07:24:21) (in thread): > I’m looking at versioning over this next release cycle. hopefully will have some implementation ideas for it.

Michael Love (11:36:08): > we’re curious what others here think: Avi, Rob and I sat down today and are thinking about hosting two versions of these datasets: one is with counts + variance, the other with counts + variance + bootstraps

Michael Love (11:37:04): > the idea of hosting the two versions is that the first is more lightweight but not the complete information, while the second version has a bigger in-memory footprint but allows you to see e.g. the covariance btwn genes

Kasper D. Hansen (12:01:29): > Explore the following: right now the SE is assembled on the client side as far as I understand. Then it should be easy for the user to request more assays so to say

Kasper D. Hansen (12:01:50): > something likeget(.., includeBootstraps = TRUE)

Michael Love (16:48:57): > aha, thanks@Kasper D. Hansen

Aaron Lun (16:51:17): > This is the case for the latestscRNAseq::ReprocessedAllenData, which only downloads a subset of assays if requested.

Aaron Lun (16:55:27): > Check outhttps://github.com/LTLA/scRNAseqfor the latest.

Michael Love (17:10:21): > Great thanks

Ming Tang (10:15:59): > How should we do the reimbursement?

Avi Srivastava (11:12:26): > I emailed Pamela, the receipt of my travelling expenses.

Federico Marini (10:59:51): > My questions to you@Levi Waldronbeing the local organizers (can well be I missed some more NewYorkers…): > 1- how did you organize the selection for the diversity scholarships, how much/what did it cover? > 2- travel fellowships, what were your budgets for these - and how many did you distribute?

Federico Marini (11:00:28): > If the discussion should be carried along as PM instead of here, please do so - and thank you in advance for any info that I’ll be happy to pass further!

Levi Waldron (16:56:43): > Dear@Federico Marini, happy to discuss with you, perhaps easier just to give me a Slack call tomorrow or Friday? I’m in Trento for sabbatical this year so no time zone difficulty…
