Cannot find location of manual curated data.

Hi All,

I am unable to find the physical location of the manually curated data (The ones in the yellow region). In which folder under /data will it be located? Some path will be useful.

Thanks

Hi, this data is not stored as files on disk. It is stored in the database (e.g. PostgreSQL database or whichever database you have configured).

If you would like to export this data as a file, you can use one of the options in the "Export" section of the "Ref Sequence" tab.

Hi Garrett,

I know how to export the data from the curation section. Actually, the location of Apollo application has changed in our systems. I am able to display everything from /data in the Apollo application, because the location was mounted onto the new system. However, all the stuff that I curated does not display anymore and brilliantly enough I did not export the curations. Is there anyway I can port the database to the new location or copy all curations to the new location?

Ok.. I can export the annotations as a gff3 file and display those as a track (yet to do but I think it will work) in the new location. However, I wanted to see these in the yellow curation section. How do I enable that?

Thanks

I don't know the specifics of your setup, but in general you can export/dump the old database (e.g. using pg_dump if you're using PostgreSQL) and import it into your new Apollo database and that will restore your curated data.

You could also drag annotations from an exported GFF3 up into the yellow annotation track, but that would only keep structural information and lose any functional annotation you had. A database export/import is the only way to transfer all the data.
