explain the GeneNetwork version 2 (GN2) reproducible deployment system
which is based on GNU Guix (see also Pjotr's [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/README.md][Guix-notes]]). The Guix

-* Source deployment
-** Install guix
+For a full view of runtime dependencies as defined by GNU Guix, see
+the [[#gn2-dependency-graph][GN2 Dependency Graph]].
+
+* Quick installation recipe
+
+This is a recipe for quick and dirty installation of GN2. For
+convenience everything is installed as root, though in reality only
+GNU Guix has to be installed as root. I tested this recipe on a fresh
+install of Debian 8.3.0 (in KVM) though it should work on any modern
+Linux distribution (including CentOS). For more elaborate installation
+instructions see [[#source-deployment][Source deployment]].
+
+Note that GN2 consists of an approx. 5 GB installation including
+database.
+
+** Step 1: Install GNU Guix
+
+Fetch the GNU Guix binary from [[https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/download/][here]] (middle panel) and follow
+[[https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Binary-Installation.html][instructions]]. Essentially you have to download and unpack the tar ball
+(which creates directories in /gnu and /var/guix), add build users and
+group (Guix builds software as unpriviliged users) and run the Guix
+daemon after fixing the paths (also known as the 'profile').
+
+Once you have succeeded, you have to [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org#set-the-key][set the key]] (getting permission
+to download binaries from the GNU server) and you should be able to
+install the hello package using binary packages (no building)
+
+#+begin_src bash
+export PATH=~/.guix-profile/bin:$PATH
+guix pull
+guix package -i hello --dry-run
+#+end_src
+
+Which should show something like
+
+: The following files would be downloaded:
+: /gnu/store/zby49aqfbd9w9br4l52mvb3y6f9vfv22-hello-2.10
+: ...
+#+end_src
-Deploying from source is also straightforward. Install GNU Guix using
-a binary tar ball as described [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes][here]].
+means binary installs. The actual installation command of 'hello' is
-If it works you should be able to install a package with
+#+begin_src bash
+guix package -i hello
+hello
+ Hello, world!
+#+end_src
-: guix package -i hello
+If you actually see things building it means that Guix is not yet
+properly installed and up-to-date, i.e., the key is missing or you
+need to do a 'guix pull'. Press Ctrl-C to interrupt.
-** Checkout the git repositories
+If you need more help we have another writeup in [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org#binary-installation][guix-notes]]. To get
+rid of the locale warning see [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org#set-locale][set-locale]].
-Check out the two relevant guix and guix-bioinformatics git
-repositories:
+** Step 2: Checkout the GN2 git repositories
+
+To fixate the software dependency graph GN2 uses git repositories of
+Guix packages. First install git if it is missing
+
+#+begin_src bash
+guix package -i git
+export GIT_SSL_CAINFO=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
+#+end_src

cd guix-gn-latest
#+end_src bash
-** Update guix
+** Step 3: Authorize the GN Guix server
+
+GN2 has its own GNU Guix binary distribution server. To trust it you have
+to add the following key
+
+#+begin_src scheme
+(public-key
+ (ecc
+ (curve Ed25519)
+ (q #11217788B41ADC8D5B8E71BD87EF699C65312EC387752899FE9C888856F5C769#)

+)
+#+end_src
+
+by pasting it into the command
+
+#+begin_src bash
+guix archive --authorize
+#+end_src
+
+and hit Ctrl-D.
+
+Now you can use the substitute server to install GN2 binaries.
+
+** Step 4: Install and run GN2
+
+Since this is a quick and dirty install we are going to override the
+GNU Guix package path by pointing the package path to our repository:
+
+#+begin_src bash
+rm /root/.config/guix/latest
+ln -s ~/genenetwork/guix-gn-latest/ /root/.config/guix/latest
+#+end_src
+
+Now check whether you can find the GN2 package with
+
+#+begin_src bash
+env GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=~/genenetwork/guix-bioinformatics/ guix package -A genenetwork2
+ genenetwork2 2.0-a8fcff4 out gn/packages/genenetwork.scm:144:2
+#+end_src
+
+(ignore the source file newer then ... messages, this is caused by the
+/root/.config/guix/latest override).
+
+And install with
+
+#+begin_src bash
+env GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=~/genenetwork/guix-bioinformatics/ \
+ guix package -i genenetwork2 \
+ --substitute-urls="http://guix.genenetwork.org:8080 https://mirror.guixsd.org" \
+ --fallback
+#+end_src
+
+Note: the order of the substitute url's may make a difference in speed
+(put the one first that is fastest for your location and time of day).
+
+After installation you should be able to run genenetwork2 after updating
+the Guix suggested environment vars. Check the output of
+
+#+begin_src bash
+guix package --search-paths
+export PYTHONPATH="/root/.guix-profile/lib/python2.7/site-packages"
+export R_LIBS_SITE="/root/.guix-profile/site-library/"
+#+end_src
+
+and copy-paste the listed exports into the terminal before running:
+
+#+begin_src bash
+genenetwork2
+#+end_src
+
+It will complain that the database is missing. See the next section on
+running MySQL server for downloading and installing a MySQL GN2
+database. After installing the database restart genenetwork2 and point
+your browser at [[http://localhost:5003/]].
+
+End of the GN2 installation recipe!
+
+* Run MySQL server
+
+At this point we require the underlying distribution to install and
+run mysqld. Currently we have two databases for deployment,
+'db_webqtl_s' is the small testing database containing experiments
+from BXD mice and 'db_webqtl_plant' which contains all plant related
+material.
+
+Download one database from
+
+http://files.genenetwork.org/raw_database/
+https://s3.amazonaws.com/genenetwork2/db_webqtl_s.zip
+
+Check the md5sum.
+
+After installation inflate the database binary in the MySQL directory
+(this installation path is subject to change soon)
+
+: chown -R mysql:mysql db_webqtl_s/
+: chmod 700 db_webqtl_s/
+: chmod 660 db_webqtl_s/*

+Set permissions and match password in your settings file below:

+
+Note that if the mysql connection is not working, try connecting to
+the IP address and check server firewall, hosts.allow and mysql IP
+configuration.

+Note for the plant database you can rename it to db_webqtl_s, or

+[[http://biobeat.org/gn2.svg]]
+
+* Source deployment
+
+This section gives a more elaborate instruction for installing GN2
+from source.
+
+First execute above 4 steps:
+
+ - [[#step-1-install-gnu-guix][Step 1: Install GNU Guix]]
+ - [[#step-2-checkout-the-gn2-git-repositories][Step 2: Checkout the GN2 git repositories]]
+ - [[#step-3-authorize-the-gn-guix-server][Step 3: Authorize the GN Guix server]]
+ - [[#step-4-install-and-run-gn2-][Step 4: Install and run GN2 ]]
+
+
+** Run your own copy of GN2
+
+At some point you may want to fix the source code. Assuming you have
+Guix and Genenetwork2 installed (as described above) clone the GN2
+repository from https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2.
+
+Copy-paste the paths into your terminal (mainly so PYTHON_PATH and
+R_LIBS_SITE are set) from the information given by guix:
+
+: guix package --search-paths
+
+Inside the repository:
+
+: cd genenetwork2
+: ./bin/genenetwork2
+
+Will fire up your local repo http://localhost:5003/ using the
+settings in ./etc/default_settings.py. These settings may
+not reflect your system. To override settings create your own from a copy of
+default_settings.py and pass it into GN2 with
+
+: ./bin/genenetwork2 $HOME/my_settings.py
+
+and everything *should* work (note the full path to the settings
+file). This way we develop against the exact same dependency graph of
+software.
+
+If something is not working, take a hint from the settings file
+that comes in the Guix installation. It sits in something like
+
+: cat ~/.guix-profile/lib/python2.7/site-packages/genenetwork2-2.0-py2.7.egg/etc/default_settings.py
+
+** Set up nginx port forwarding
+
+nginx can be used as a reverse proxy for GN2. For example, we want to
+expose GN2 on port 80 while it is running on port 5003. Essentially
+the configuration looks like
+
+#+begin_src js
+ server {
+ listen 80;
+ server_name test-gn2.genenetwork.org;
+ access_log logs/test-gn2.access.log;
+
+ proxy_connect_timeout 3000;
+ proxy_send_timeout 3000;
+ proxy_read_timeout 3000;
+ send_timeout 3000;
+
+ location / {
+ proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
+ proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;
+ proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+ proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+ proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
+ proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5003;
+ }
+}
+#+end_src js
+
+Install the nginx webserver (as root)
+
+: guix package -i nginx
+
+The nginx example configuration examples can be found in the Guix
+store through
+
+: ls -l /root/.guix-profile/sbin/nginx
+: lrwxrwxrwx 3 root guixbuild 66 Dec 31 1969 /root/.guix-profile/sbin/nginx -> /gnu/store/g0wrcl5z27rmk5b52rldzvk1bzzbnz2l-nginx-1.8.1/sbin/nginx
+
+Use that path
+
+: ls /gnu/store/g0wrcl5z27rmk5b52rldzvk1bzzbnz2l-nginx-1.8.1/share/nginx/conf/
+: fastcgi.conf koi-win scgi_params
+: fastcgi.conf.default mime.types scgi_params.default
+: fastcgi_params mime.types.default uwsgi_params
+: fastcgi_params.default nginx.conf uwsgi_params.default
+: koi-utf nginx.conf.default win-utf
+
+And copy any relevant files to /etc/nginx. A configuration file for
+GeneNetwork (reverse proxy) port forwarding can be found in the source
+repository under ./etc/nginx-genenetwork.conf. Copy this file to /etc
+(still as root)
+: cp ./etc/nginx-genenetwork.conf /etc/nginx/
+
+Make dirs
+
+: mkdir -p /var/spool/nginx/logs
+
+Add users
+
+: adduser nobody ; addgroup nobody
+
+Run nginx
+
+: /root/.guix-profile/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx-genenetwork.conf -p /var/spool/nginx
+
+* Source deployment and other information on reproducibility
+
+See the document [[GUIX-Reproducible-from-source.org]].
+
+** Update to recent guix
-At some point you may decide to create, install and run a recent
-version of the guix-daemon by compiling the guix repository. Follow
-[[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org#building-gnu-guix-from-source-using-guix][these]] steps carefully.
+We now compile Guix from scratch.
+
+Create, install and run a recent version of the guix-daemon by
+compiling the guix repository you have installed with git in
+step 2. Follow [[https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org#building-gnu-guix-from-source-using-guix][these]] steps carefully after
+
+: cd ~/genenetwork/guix-gn-latest
+
+Make sure to restart the guix daemon and run guix client from this
+directory.
** Install GN2
+Reinstall genenetwork2 using the new tree
+
#+begin_src bash
-env GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=../guix-bioinformatics/ ./pre-inst-env \
- guix package -i genenetwork2 --fallback

#+end_src bash
-Note that you can use the genenetwork.org guix substitute caching
-server at http://guix.genenetwork.org:8080 (which speeds up installs
-significantly because all packages are pre-built). Here an IRC session
-where we installed GN2 from scratch using GNU Guix and a download
-of the test database:
+Note the use of ./pre-inst-env here!
+
+Actually, it should be the same installation as in step 4, so nothing
+gets downloaded.
+
+** Run GN2
+
+Make a note of the paths with
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./pre-inst-env guix package --search-paths
+#+end_src bash
+
+After setting the paths for the server
+
+#+begin_src bash

+
+#+begin_src bash
+genenetwork2
+#+end_src bash
+
+will start the default server which listens on port 5003, i.e.,
+http://localhost:5003/.
+
+OK, we are where we were before with step 4. Only difference is that we
+used our own compiled guix server.
+
+* Trouble shooting
+
+** ImportError: No module named jinja2
+
+If you have all the Guix packages installed this error points out that
+the environment variables are not set. Copy-paste the paths into your
+terminal (mainly so PYTHON_PATH and R_LIBS_SITE are set) from the
+information given by guix:
+
+: guix package --search-paths
+
+On one system:
+
+: export PYTHONPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/python2.7/site-packages"
+: export R_LIBS_SITE="$HOME/.guix-profile/site-library/"
+: export GEM_PATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0"
+
+and perhaps a few more.
+** ERROR: can not find directory $HOME/gn2_data
+
+The default settings file looks in your $HOME/gn2_data. Since these
+files come with a Guix installation you should take a hint from the
+values in the installed version of default_settings.py (see above in
+this document).
+
+** Can't run a module
+
+In rare cases, development modules are not brought in with Guix
+because no source code is available. This can lead to missing modules
+on a running server. Please check with the authors when a module
+is missing.

-* Trouble shooting
-
-** ImportError: No module named jinja2
-
-If you have all the Guix packages installed this error points out that
-the environment variables are not set. Copy-paste the paths into your
-terminal (mainly so PYTHON_PATH and R_LIBS_SITE are set) from the
-information given by guix:
-
-: guix package --search-paths
-
-On one system:
-
-: export PYTHONPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/python2.7/site-packages"
-: export R_LIBS_SITE="$HOME/.guix-profile/site-library/"
-: export GEM_PATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0"
-
-and perhaps a few more.
-** ERROR: can not find directory $HOME/gn2_data
-
-The default settings file looks in your $HOME/gn2_data. Since these
-files come with a Guix installation you should take a hint from the
-values in the installed version of default_settings.py (see above in
-this document).
-
-** Can't run a module
-
-In rare cases, development modules are not brought in with Guix
-because no source code is available. This can lead to missing modules
-on a running server. Please check with the authors when a module
-is missing.
