Step 1: Create the /sw directory

SmallWorld requires a /sw directory which contains /anon and /maps The /sw directory is located on n-9-22 in

   /srv/db4

This directory contains:

The /anon directory contains 12 TB of pre-computed subgraphs

The /maps directory contains text files computed by SmallWorld that map your molecules of choice to the corresponding nodes in the anonymous graph index

Step 2: Find a location for the sw.jar file

Copy the sw.jar file to a reasonable location such as

   /opt/nextmove/sw.jar

Run

Important! Currently, we only run SmallWorld map generation on n-9-22

Step 1: Set SWDIR environment variable

Determine where the /sw directory with the /anon and /maps directory and if using csh, set the SWDIR variable using

   setenv SWDIR /srv/db4

If using bash, set the SWDIR variable using

   export SWDIR=/srv/db4

Step 2: Generate the map files

Run sw.jar to convert your smiles file into a map file.

(Optional: use the time command to see how long this takes)

(Optional: tee your results into a log file to check progress)

Here is an example where wait-ok.smi is your .smi file to map:

   (time java -jar /opt/nextmove/sw.jar map /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/wait-ok.smi 
   -T /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/scratch_sw 
   -o /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/wait-ok.anon.map 
   -u /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/wait-ok.anon.unmapped)
    |& tee /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/wait-ok_log

This is a long command, so we can break down the different parts.

map The SMILES file you want to map follows the word "map"

-T This is the temp directory you want to write temp files to, rather than writing to /tmp

-o The final name of your output map file

-u Argument to keep track of the unmapped compounds.

Important: The unmapped compounds file may be used to generate extensions and is the same as the .anon.ext.map file mentioned in the SmallWorld documentation


For now, generate the map files in the

   /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld 

directory so they can be easily moved to the maps directory when the server is restarted

Step 2.5 Incremental Updates

Suppose you already have a file called <your-file-name>.anon.map, and you want to add some new smiles without remaking the entire map. A worked example is located in the SmallWorld version 4 documentation on pages 17-18 in the Incremental Updates Section

(This part of the wiki page is incomplete. I'll update it when I'm done with my script to automatically generate the cfg file) The creat_cfg.py program is located in

   /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/create_cfg.py

The create_cfg.py script will automatically generate a cfg file for a map that is composed of two existing SmallWorld Maps. Run as follows:

   python create_cfg.py first second combined

Note: first is first.anon.map second is second.anon.map combined is combined.anon.map

The program will look for the .anon.map files and the .anon.map.cfg for the first and second before proceeding

If you have a new SMILES file <newsmiles>.smi that you want to combine with an existing map file, first run the map command in Step 2 for the new file

Make a copy and modify the bash script below with the name of your new map file

You can run this script on any machine

   /nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/bash_merge_maps

This script simply combines two map files that have already been created


Replace the OLD_MAPFILE environment variable with the old map Replace the ADD_MAPFILE environment variable with the map you wish to incrementally add Replace the NEW_MAPFILE environment variable with the name you want for the new combined map

Step 3: How to Make the New Database Available. Stop the server first!

First, stop the server. You do not need to restart Tomcat every time you want to restart SmallWorld. The TomCat GUI is available at

   http://10.20.9.22:8080/

You need the tunnel to access the private network or this link will not work! Also, the admin username and password is required.

In the Manager App, in the Applications section, use the Stop and Start buttons for the sw-ws app to restart the SmallWorld server

Step 4: Move the Map File into the /maps directory

If you followed the example above, your .anon.map file should be located in

   /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld

Now, simply move the map file into the "/sw/maps" directory so it can be recognized by SmallWorld.

   mv <your-file-name>.anon.map /mnt/nfs/ex9/work/smallworld/maps

Or, simply

   mv <your-file-name>.anon.map maps


Step 5: Restart the Server

Again, go to the TomCat manager under applications and click Start once you are finished moving around the map files.
