BCL WorkflowΒΆ

This workflow implements ingest for directories as created by Illumina sequencing machines with BCL (base call) files. The overall pattern follows the one described in the section Common Multi-File Workflow. The specialization are:

for each file in the source directory
  • in addition to the steps described in the common workflow,

  • if the file is the run info or run parameters XML file then meta data is appropriately extracted from the XML file and applied to ${DEST}/${ENTRY}

  • if the file is a netcopy complete file then the timestamp is extracted and applied to ${DEST}/${ENTRY}

done detection
  • is implemented by the presence of the appropriate marker files depending on the Illumina device type and version

  • the device type and version is detected by logic analyzing the run info and run parameters XML files
