iRODS environments for Utrecht University YoDa servers

This repository can be used to create an iRODS environment json that is needed to connect to the Utrecht University YoDa servers.

Step 1: Install the plugin

Type the following on the command line (in your virtual environment if you use one):

pip install ibridges-servers-uu

Step 2: Find the right server

On the command line run the following command:

ibridges setup --list

This shows you all the names of the YoDa servers available.

Step 3: Create your irods_environment.json

In the following examples, we use the uu-its server, replace it with the server that is available to your faculty.

ibridges setup uu-its

This will ask for your email address. After filling it in, a file will be created in the default location for the irods environment file (~/.irods/irods_environment.json on Linux and MacOS). You can modify this location adding the --output SOME_NEW_LOCATION flag to the above command.

Step 4: Start using iBridges

For the main documentation on how to use iBridges, see the iBridges main repository.

ibridges init

which will ask you for your data access password, which you can obtain through the YoDa portal.
