Download Data Using Ftp-Access?

Question: Download Data Using Ftp-Access?

5.9 years ago by

Is there any way of downloading processed files at galaxyproject.org by e.g. FTP, instead of Save as in the web browser? I have some large (~50Gb) BAM files to download, and downloading it via the browser is not stable. Thanks, Karen.

Hello Karen, From a shell/unix/terminal window on your side, use "curl" to download datasets. The link can be obtained by right clicking the floppy disk icon inside a history item and choosing "Copy Link Address" (for most datasets) or "Download Dataset/Download bam_index" (for BAM datasets there are two downloads). Once you have the link: $ curl -O '<link>' Hopefully this helps! Jen Galaxy team -- Jennifer Hillman-Jackson Galaxy Support and Training http://galaxyproject.org

Hi Karen, I don't run windows OS, but found this link that seems to describe the same situation with a solution. Maybe give it a try and see if it works? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3562095/using-curl-to-get-a-https- webpage-in-windows-7 This link also looked helpful, just from a set-up perspective and since your curl install is new, but I don't know if you are using a 64-bit machine or not: https://support.gradesfirst.com/forums/20230492-how-to-setup-curl-on- windows-7-64-bit I found these with a google using "curl windows 7 https" - there are other hits, but these two looked the most promising as a first go for troubleshooting.
