After you have finished creating a track and it is ready for QA, you should add an entry to the qapushq table on hgwbeta. There is a CGI for this.

Add a track to the pushQ only if everything is ready. This includes:

  • All tables have been built
  • TrackDb has been edited (including track and search lines as appropriate)
  • Make alpha on hgwdev in /trackDb directory
  • All underlying files are complete and in the correct location (usually /gbdb/)
  • html text for details page is complete (see also description pages and citation formats) and is in highest logical level for the assembly.
  • All associated downloads files have been created and are in the correct location (usually /data/apache/htdocs-hgdownload/goldenPath/)
  • All tables have been added to the all.joiner file

Editing the pushQ entry:

RELEASE LOG: Put the main identifier, usually short label followed by comments in parentheses if any (e.g. Known Gene (data update)). No need to enter the database name.

RELEASE LOG URL If you would like for the Release Log entry for this track to link to the track description page, then enter a link to it here, e.g.: 

../../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg18&g=wgEncodeBuOrchid

TABLES: Don't forget to include:

  • trackDb
  • hgFindSpec (if the items in this track are searchable)
  • extFile
  • seq

CGIs: If this track depends on a particular upcoming release of the CGIs, enter the CGI name and the version number here (e.g. hgTracks (v140)).

FILES: Don't forget to include:

  • download files

CURRENT LOCATION: Set to hgwdev.

SIZE: Press the Show Sizes button.

MAKEDOC VERIFIED: Leave this set to N.

INDEX VERIFIED: Leave this set to N.

ALL.JOINER VERIFIED: Leave this set to N.

EXTERNAL SOURCE: Enter the name and email address of the collaborator. Or enter the name of the website or lab where the data came from.

NOTES: Add notes to the QA team in this section. Be as specific as possible -- the more you enter here, the less QA will have to ask you for. Also, if this track has been requested by a user, enter the user's email address here. QA will send an email to that user after the track has been pushed to the RR. If this track is replacing an existing track, be sure to list the tables/files to drop.

After the track has been QAd and pushed to the public website, you can edit the original tables and files genome-test as you like. This new data will not be QAd and pushed until you add another pushQ entry.

If this is the release of an entire assembly, use Angie's makePushQSql.pl script.
