SUBDOCK DOCK3.8

installing

git clone https://github.com/docking-org/DOCK.git

subdock.bash is located @ ucsfdock/docking/submit/subdock.bash relative to the repository root.

subdock.bash can be called directly from any location- it is not sensitive to the current working directory.

what's new?

For those of you that have used a subdock utility before, here's what is new in this release:

1. All platforms are supported on the same script.

2. Subdock can now be run on both db2.gz files & db2.tgz packages. A batch_size can be set for both types, allowing for more flexibility.

3. Arguments can be provided environmentally, e.g "export KEY=VALUE" or on the command line e.g "--key=value"

4. Subdock now prints out a superscript to copy-paste on success, convenient for re-submission.

supported platforms

There are three platforms currently supported:

1. SLURM

2. SGE (Sun Grid Engine)

3. GNU Parallel (for local runs- ideal for testing)

One of these platforms must be specified- SLURM is the default. These platforms can be set by the

--use-slurm=true
--use-sge=true
--use-parallel=true

Arguments, respectively

supported file types

DOCK can be run on individual db2.gz files or db2.tgz tar packages.

The file type can be specified via the --use-db2=true or --use-db2-tgz=true arguments. db2.tgz is the default

Each job dispatched by SUBDOCK will consume BATCH_SIZE files, where BATCH_SIZE is equal to --use-db2-batch-size or --use-db2-tgz-batch-size depending on which file type is chosen.

The number of jobs dispatched by SUBDOCK is equal to ceil(N / BATCH_SIZE), where N is the total number of input files.

full example - all steps

1. Source subdock code from github

git clone https://github.com/docking-org/DOCK.git

2. Fetch dockfiles from DUDE-Z- we will use DRD4 for this example.

# note- you may need to change the INDOCK header to say "DOCK 3.8 parameter" instead of "DOCK 3.7 parameter" if you are using DOCK 3.8
wget -r --reject="index.html*" -nH --cut-dirs=2 -l1 --no-parent https://dudez.docking.org/DOCKING_GRIDS_AND_POSES/DRD4/dockfiles/

3a. Get db2 database subset sample via ZINC-22. Example provided below:

wget http://files.docking.org/zinc22/zinc-22l/H17/H17P050/a/H17P050-N-laa.db2.tgz
wget http://files.docking.org/zinc22/zinc-22l/H17/H17P050/a/H17P050-N-lab.db2.tgz
wget http://files.docking.org/zinc22/zinc-22l/H17/H17P050/a/H17P050-N-lac.db2.tgz

You can select a db2 database subset via cartblanche22.docking.org- for wget-able files, choose the DOCK37 (*.db2.tgz) format, with URL download type. Multiple download types are supported, for example if you are on Wynton you can download Wynton file paths- removing the need to download the files yourself.

3b. If you downloaded the db2.tgz files yourself, create an sdi.in file from your database subset, which will serve as a list of files to evaluate. For example:

find $PWD -type -f -name '*.db2.tgz' > sdi.in

4. Export the parameters we just prepared as environment variables

export INPUT_SOURCE=$PWD/sdi.in
export EXPORT_DEST=$PWD/output
export DOCKFILES=$PWD/dockfiles
export DOCKEXEC=$PWD/DOCK/ucsfdock/docking/DOCK/dock64

5. Choose a platform. You must select only one platform - mixing and matching is not supported.

export USE_SLURM=true|...
export USE_SGE=true|...
export USE_PARALLEL=true|...

Any value other than exactly "true" will be interpreted as false.

6a. Run docking!

bash ~/DOCK/ucsfdock/docking/submit/subdock.bash

6b. You can also use command line arguments instead of environment export, if desired. These can be mixed and matched.

export DOCKEXEC=$PWD/DOCK/ucsfdock/docking/DOCK/dock64
bash ~/DOCK/ucsfdock/docking/submit/subdock.bash --input-source=$PWD/sdi.in --export-dest=$PWD/output --dockfiles=$PWD/dockfiles --use-slurm=true

7. After executing subdock, it will print out a convenient "superscript" to copy & paste, for any future re-submissions.
