PyFGCZ 0.5.8

PyFGCZ contains BioBeamer and FCC python code.

BioBeamer helps to collect huge amounts of instrument data (M|G|TBytes). An example configuration collecting mass spectrometric measurement of more than a dozen devices can be seen through http://fgcz-data.uzh.ch/config/BioBeamer.xml.

FCC is a minimalistic workflow engine. The specification/properties of the program are as follow:

• converting instrument files, e.g., RAW-files to all kinds of formats

• being generic

• follows FGCZ hierarch storage granularity: project, user, instrument, time range

• multi- platform, host, task

• configurable through xml file which means new converter by new tag in xml file NO CODE CHANGE!

• stdout and errout through syslog

A current configugration can be found through http://fgcz-data.uzh.ch/config/fcc_config.xml.
