 ## Install
 
-The recommended installation is with GNU Guix which allows you to
-deploy GN2 and dependencies as a self contained unit on any machine.
-The database can be run separately as well as the source tree (for
-developers).  See the [installation docs](doc/README.org).
-
-## Configuration
-
-GeneNetwork2 comes with a [default configuration file](./etc/default_settings.py)
-which can be used as a starting point.
-
-The recommended way to deal with the configurations is to **copy** this default configuration file to a location outside of the repository, say,
-
-```sh
-.../genenetwork2$ cp etc/default_settings.py "${HOME}/configurations/gn2.py"
-```
-
-then change the appropriate values in the new file. You can then pass in the new
-file as the configuration file when launching the application,
-
-```sh
-.../genenetwork2$ bin/genenetwork "${HOME}/configurations/gn2.py" <command-to-run>
-```
-
-The other option is to override the configurations in `etc/default_settings.py`
-by setting the configuration you want to override as an environment variable e.g.
-to override the `SQL_URI` value, you could do something like:
-
-```sh
-.../genenetwork2$ env SQL_URI="mysql://<user>:<passwd>@<host>:<port>/<db_name>" \
-	bin/genenetwork "${HOME}/configurations/gn2.py" <command-to-run>
-```
-
-replacing the placeholders in the angle brackets with appropriate values.
-
-For a detailed breakdown of the configuration variables and their use, see the
-[configuration documentation](doc/configurations.org)
-
-## Run
-
-Once having installed GN2 it can be run through a browser
-interface
-
-```sh
-genenetwork2
-```
-
-A quick example is
-
-```sh
-env GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest SERVER_PORT=5300 \
-    GENENETWORK_FILES=~/data/gn2_data/ \
-    GN_PROXY_URL="http://localhost:8080"\
-    GN3_LOCAL_URL="http://localhost:8081"\
-	SPARQL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:8892/sparql\
-    ./bin/genenetwork2 ./etc/default_settings.py -gunicorn-dev
-```
-
-For full examples (you may need to set a number of environment
-variables), including running scripts and a Python REPL, also see the
-startup script [./bin/genenetwork2](https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2/blob/testing/bin/genenetwork2).
-
-Also mariadb and redis need to be running, see
-[INSTALL](./doc/README.org).
-
-## Debugging
-
-To run the application under the pdb debugger, you can add the `--with-pdb`
-option when launching the application, for example:
-
-```sh
-env GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest SERVER_PORT=5300 \
-    GENENETWORK_FILES=~/data/gn2_data/ \
-    GN_PROXY_URL="http://localhost:8080"\
-    GN3_LOCAL_URL="http://localhost:8081"\
-	SPARQL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:8892/sparql\
-    ./bin/genenetwork2 ./etc/default_settings.py --with-pdb
-```
-
-**NOTE**: This should only ever be run in development.
-**NOTE 2**: You will probably need to tell pdb to continue at least once before
-the system begins serving the pages.
-
-Now, you can add the `breakpoint()` call wherever you need to debug and the
-terminal where you started the application with `--with-pdb` will allow you to
-issue commands to pdb to debug your application.
-
-## Development
-
-It may be useful to pull in the GN3 python modules locally. For this
-use `GN3_PYTHONPATH` environment that gets injected in
-the ./bin/genenetwork2 startup.
-
-A continuously deployed instance of genenetwork2 is available at
-[https://cd.genenetwork.org/](https://cd.genenetwork.org/). This
-instance is redeployed on every commit provided that the [continuous
-integration tests](https://ci.genenetwork.org/jobs/genenetwork2) pass.
-
-## Testing
-
-To have tests pass, the redis and mariadb instance should be running, because of
-asserts sprinkled in the code base.
-
-Right now, the only tests running in CI are unittests. Please make
-sure the existing unittests are green when submitting a PR.
-
-From the root directory of the repository, you can run the tests with something
-like:
-
-```sh
-env GN_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest SERVER_PORT=5300 \
-	SQL_URI=<uri-to-override-the-default> \
-	./bin/genenetwork2 ./etc/default_settings.py \
-	-c -m pytest -vv
-```
-
-In the case where you use the default `etc/default_settings.py` configuration file, you can override any setting as demonstrated with the `SQL_URI` setting in the command above.
-
-In order to avoid having to set up a whole host of settings every time with the `env` command, you could copy the `etc/default_settings.py` file to a new location (outside the repository is best), and pass that to `bin/genenetwork2` instead.
-
-See
-[./bin/genenetwork2](https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2/blob/testing/doc/docker-container.org)
-for more details.

-#### Mechanical Rob
-
-We are building 'Mechanical Rob' automated testing using Python
-[requests](https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2/tree/testing/test/requests)
-which can be run with:
-
-```sh
-env GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest \
-    ./bin/genenetwork2 \
-    GN_PROXY_URL="http://localhost:8080" \
-    GN3_LOCAL_URL="http://localhost:8081 "\
-    ./etc/default_settings.py -c \
-    ../test/requests/test-website.py -a http://localhost:5003
-```
-
-The GN2_PROFILE is the Guix profile that contains all
-dependencies. The ./bin/genenetwork2 script sets up the environment
-and executes test-website.py in a Python interpreter. The -a switch
-says to run all tests and the URL points to the running GN2 http
-server.
-
-#### Unit tests
-
-To run unittests, first `cd` into the genenetwork2 directory:
-
-```sh
-# You can use the coverage tool to run the tests
-# You could omit the -v which makes the output verbose
-runcmd coverage run -m unittest discover -v
-
-# Alternatively, you could run the unittests using:
-runpython -m unittest discover -v
-
-# To generate a report in wqflask/coverage_html_report/:
-runcmd coverage html
-```
-
-The `runcmd` and `runpython` are shell aliases defined in the following way:
-
-```sh
-alias runpython="env GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest TMPDIR=/tmp SERVER_PORT=5004 GENENETWORK_FILES=/gnu/data/gn2_data/ GN_PROXY_URL="http://localhost:8080" GN3_LOCAL_URL="http://localhost:8081" ./bin/genenetwork2
-
-alias runcmd="time env GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn-latest TMPDIR=//tmp SERVER_PORT=5004 GENENETWORK_FILES=/gnu/data/gn2_data/ GN_PROXY_URL="http://localhost:8080" GN3_LOCAL_URL="http://localhost:8081" ./bin/genenetwork2 ./etc/default_settings.py -cli"
-```
-
-Replace some of the env variables as per your use case.
-
-### Troubleshooting
-
-If the menu does not pop up check your `GN2_BASE_URL`. E.g.
-
-```
-curl http://gn2-pjotr.genenetwork.org/api/v_pre1/gen_dropdown
-```
-
-check the logs. If there is ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column
-'InbredSet.Family' in 'field list' it may be you are trying the small
-database.
-
-### Run Scripts
-
-As part of the profiling effort, some scripts are added to run specific parts of the system under a profiler without running the entire web-server - as such, to run the script, you could do something like:
-
-```
-env HOME=/home/frederick \
-    GN2_PROFILE=~/opt/gn2-latest \
-    GN3_DEV_REPO_PATH=~/genenetwork/genenetwork3 \
-    SQL_URI="mysql://username:password@host-ip:host-port/db_webqtl" \
-	SPARQL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:8892/sparql\
-    SERVER_PORT=5001 \
-    bin/genenetwork2 ../gn2_settings.py \
-    -cli python3 -m scripts.profile_corrs \
-	../performance_$(date +"%Y%m%dT%H:%M:%S").profile
-```
-
-and you can find the performance metrics at the file specified, in this case, a file starting with `performance_` with the date and time of the run, and ending with `.profile`.
-
-Please replace the environment variables in the sample command above with the appropriate values for your environment.
+The recommended installation is with GNU Guix which allows you to deploy GN2 and dependencies as a self contained unit on any machine. The database can be run separately as well as the source tree (for developers).  See the [installation docs](doc/README.org).
