Virtool is a web-based application for diagnosing pathogen infections using high-throughput sequencing.
Website: https://www.virtool.ca Gitter: https://gitter.im/virtool
See the Virtool documentation to get started with the latest version of Virtool 4.0.0.
Virtool is currently undergoing a major transformation into a cloud-native application. This will mean Virtool can scale work across multiple hosts and run natively in Kubernetes and public cloud providers.
For current users and administrators:
- Virtool 4.0.0 series should be used for now.
- Virtool 4.0.0 series will continue to receive bug and security fixes for the forseeable future.
- Virtool 5.0.0 will comprise multiple containerized services that need to run together. A deployment and migration guide will be provided.
All commits must follow the Conventional Commits specification.
These standardized commit messages are used to automatically publish releases using semantic-release
after commits are merged to main
from successful PRs.
Example
feat: add API support for assigning labels to existing samples
Descriptive bodies and footers are required where necessary to describe the impact of the commit. Use bullets where appropriate.
Additional Requirements
- Write in the imperative. For example, "fix bug", not "fixed bug" or "fixes bug".
- Don't refer to issues or code reviews. For example, don't write something like this: "make style changes requested in review". Instead, "update styles to improve accessibility".
- Commits are not your personal journal. For example, don't write something like this: "got server running again" or "oops. fixed my code smell".
