eu_get_accessions

Use this script when there are records on the ENCODE Portal for which you know their aliases, but want to retreive their DCC accessions. This will only work if the record aliases you provided are registered with the records on the ENCODE Portal. Note that if the particular DCC profile at hand doesn’t support the accession property, then the uuid will be returned.

usage: eu_get_accessions.py [-h] [-m DCC_MODE] -i INFILE -o OUTFILE
                            [-l SUBMITTER_LAB]

Named Arguments

-m, --dcc-mode
The ENCODE Portal site (‘prod’ or ‘dev’, or an explicit host name, i.e. ‘demo.encodedcc.org’) to connect to.
-i, --infile
Input file containing record aliases (one per line). Empty lines and lines beginning with a ‘#’ will be ignored.
-o, --outfile
The output file, which is in the same as the input file except for the addition of the tab-delimited columns - one for each alias.
-l, --submitter-lab
 
The submitting lab alias prefix (i.e. michael-snyder) for these aliases. No need to set this option if your input file’s aliases are already prefixed with the submitting lab. Furthermore, for any aliases lacking the prefix, the default will be taken from the DCC_LAB environment variable if not set here.
