* Make sure that [[wp:Concurrent_Versions_System | CVS]] is installed on your system.
 
* Pick the repository that you wish to use
 
    * [http://code.open-bio.org/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/?cvsroot=biopython /home/repository/biopython]

    * [http://code.open-bio.org/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/?cvsroot=obf-common /home/repository/obf-common]
 
* Use the following command (all on one line) to login to the server. The example below shows how to login to the bioperl repository. To login to other repositories simply alter the /home/repository/(project) information.
 
    cvs -d :pserver:cvs@code.open-bio.org:/home/repository/bioperl login
 
* When prompted, the password is 'cvs'
 
* Each project CVS repository can have many different packages available for download. You may need to browse the web interface for a bit to determine the packages of interest. After a successful login you may "checkout" the project package you are interested in.
 
The following command should be executed as one line. The specific example shows how to check out the primary bioperl codebase which is contained in the "bioperl-live" package.
 
    cvs -d :pserver:cvs@code.open-bio.org:/home/repository/bioperl checkout bioperl-live
 
* The login and checkout procedure should only have to be done once. To update the source directories in the future it should be possible just to enter the top level directory and issue the following command:
 
    cvs update
 
 
 
==Downloading and updating code via Anonymous Rsync==
 
 
 
The code.open-bio.org server also offers up read-only copies of source code repositories via anonymous [[wp:Rsync | rsync]].
 
 
 
To see a list of available rsync modules, try this command:
 
 
 
  rsync rsync://code.open-bio.org
 
 
 
The server will echo back the list of configured repositories. The module name is appended to the "::" pattern to indicate to the rsync server that a module is being requested.  
 
  
The following example shows how to obtain the latest Bioperl codebase snapshot using anonymous rsync:

== Past archives ==
  
  rsync -av code.open-bio.org::cvsbioperl .

Anonymous access to the latest hosted source code repositories

The methods described here grant access to live snapshots of our current code repositories. The files may be in constant flux and certainly do not reflect official packages and supported releases.

The following OBF supported projects are now using git hosted on github.com:

   * BioRuby uses http://github.com/bioruby/bioruby
   * Biopython uses http://github.com/biopython/biopython
   * BioPerl uses http://github.com/bioperl
   * BioSQL uses http://github.com/biosql/biosql

For downloads of tested and released software, please visit the official Projects page for links to the project websites and download locations.

Note to developers

This page describes methods for obtaining read only access to the latest snapshots of our source code. Updates, fixes and new code can not be committed, but you can create a fork of the repository on github (allowing you to modify you own personal repository), and changes resubmitted to the projects as a pull request.

Past archives

The above projects have previously used CVS and/or SVN hosted on OBF-maintained hardware, but these resources are no longer available.
