CLC Cloud Module 25.0

Released on December 3, 2024

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue where jobs sent to a CLC Genomics Cloud setup created in November, 2024 could fail with the error “Unable to find results.”.

Changes

• The Remote Files tab is now delivered as standard with CLC Workbenches. Browsing AWS S3 buckets via this tab no longer requires installation of the CLC Cloud Module.

CLC Cloud Module 24.0

Released on January 9, 2024

New features

• Data in public AWS S3 buckets can be browsed under the Remote Files tab and can be used as input to analyses.
• When the Navigation Tools plugin is installed bookmarks for items in the Remote Files tab can be created. Double-clicking on bookmarks for individual results files or folders opens the bookmarked items, as standard. Double-clicking on a bookmark for a workflow-result.json file reveals a list of the results referred to by the json file, along with options to download and open all the results or to open the execution log. I.e. the same options available when the workflow-result.json file itself is double-clicked upon under the Remote Files tab.

Improvements

• Folders can be uploaded to AWS S3. Previously only files could be uploaded.
• Folders can be downloaded from AWS S3 to CLC File Locations. Previously only files could be specified for download.
• Files can be imported using Standard Import by pasting a URL into the Navigation Area when the CLC Cloud Module is installed on the Workbench.
• The execution log now contains information about the resources used by a job.
• Various minor improvements

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue that could cause some workflow runs in a batch to fail with a message about a missing tool. This problem could arise when a batch run was the first job submitted to the cloud after opening the Workbench, and where the workflow being used contained at least one tool provided by a plugin. This issue did not affect jobs submitted via a CLC Genomics Server.

CLC Cloud Module 23.0.1

Released on May 16, 2023

Improvements

Improvements in this release relate to using the CLC Server Command Line Tools to submit jobs via a CLC Server to run on AWS:

• CLC format files can be specified as input directly in commands, whether the data is in a CLC Server location or in a remote location. Previously, when in a location other than a CLC Server location, the relevant importer (aka "on-the-fly import") had to be specified in the command line.
• Locations of files and folders in remote locations, e.g. AWS S3, can be specified using the remote location URL directly. Previously URLs to remote data required "clc://cloudfile" to be prepended.
• New command: cgc_read_aws_logs This supports the retrieval of AWS CloudWatch logs for jobs run on a CLC Genomics Cloud. The AWS CloudWatch information retrieved is the same as that returned when the "Execution Log" is opened in the CLC Workbench, either via the Processes tab or via options under the Remote Files tab.
• Messages returned from a job run on the cloud includes the information needed by the new cgc_read_aws_logs command to access the relevant AWS CloudWatch log.

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue where the relevant manual page was not found when focus was on the Remote Files tab in a CLC Workbench and the F1 key was pressed.
