🆀 When transferring files, do I always have to specify the transfer source and transfer destination with absolute paths?

🅐 The path on the user's computer can be specified as either an absolute or relative path.

However, the path of the personal genome analysis division cannot be specified as a relative path.It must be specified as an absolute path.

Below are input examples for the user's computer path.

Both input examples 1 and 2 mean the same thing, so you can execute them whichever you prefer.

• Upload the file upload_ex1.txt in the home directory of the user's computer to the user's home directory in the personal genome analysis division.

Input example 1: When specifying by absolute path

hcp --user uesrname C:\Users\uesrname\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:upload_ex1.txt

Input example 2: When specifying by relative path

hcp --user uesrname upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:upload_ex1.txt

• Upload files by specifying a directory.

Input example 1: When specifying by absolute path

hcp --user uesrname C:\Users\uesrname\HCP_upload\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/uesrname/HCP_upload/upload_ex1.txt

Input example 2: When specifying by relative path

hcp --user uesrname .\HCP_upload\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/uesrname/HCP_upload/upload_ex1.txt

• Download the file download_ex1.txt from the user's home directory in the personal genome analysis division to the home directory of the user's computer.

Input example 1: When specifying by absolute path

hcp --user uesrname gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:download_ex1.txt C:\Users\uesrname\download_ex1.txt

Input example 2: When specifying by relative path

hcp --user uesrname gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:download_ex1.txt .\download_ex1.txt

• Download files by specifying the directory.

Input example 1: When specifying by absolute path

hcp --user uesrname gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/uesrname/HCP_upload/upload_ex1.txt C:\Users\uesrname\HCP_upload\upload_ex1.txt

Input example 2: When specifying by relative path

hcp --user uesrname gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/uesrname/HCP_upload/upload_ex1.txt .\HCP_upload\upload_ex1.txt

🆀 Is it possible to specify a directory for file transfer?

🅐 Yes.

You can see an example of an upload executed when a directory is specified below.

For downloads, you can also specify a directory for file transfer by specifying it in the same way as for uploads.

• If you want to specify the source directory.

hcp --user username C:\Users\username\HCPtools_upload_test\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:upload_ex1.txt

• If you want to specify the directory to upload.

hcp --user username C:\Users\username\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/username/HCPtools_upload/upload_ex1.txt

• If you want to specify a directory for both the source and the upload.

hcp --user username C:\Users\username\HCPtools_upload_test\upload_ex1.txt gwa.ddbj.nig.ac.jp:/home/username/HCPtools_upload/upload_ex1.txt

🆀 Is it necessary to specify the file name when specifying the upload or download destination?

🅐 Yes.

If you do not specify a file name, the following error message will be output and the file cannot be transferred.

2022/03/11 14:28:54 00006070:INFO :Negotiation error is set (A001).
2022/03/11 14:28:54 00006070:INFO :A response on negotiation has an error. So it was finished in failure.

🆀 HCP tools Command Overview p.10 says that only Windows 10 is supported. Is it not available for Windows 11?

🅐 Yes, it can be used on Windows 11.
