This repository hosts web libraries used in the InterMine ecosystem.
The main repo is hosted by GitHub, but sometimes it goes down. Before that happens, we encourage you to host your own copy. Your apps will potentially work faster, depending on your location, and you will be fully in control.
Follow these steps:
global.web.properties file on the line where it says head.cdn.location:.cdn.location = http://cdn.myserver.com
If you want you can make use of the CGI script in the cgi directory to
optimise requrests to the CDN. Doing so requires a web-server which supports CGI
scripts. This is simple enough for Apache, for which a suitable configuration
stanza is presented below:
s /cdn /path/to/clone/of/CDN
ectory /path/to/clone/of/CDN>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
AllowOverride FileInfo Options=ExecCGI
rectory>
This is also possible with nginx with a bit more work and research.
When this feature is enabled requests can be made of the form
http://cdn.myserver.com/cgi/concat.rb?js=X&js=Y which will return the two JavaScript
files concatenated together. These requests will be served with long expiries,
which can be disabled by supplying the dev parameter. The InterMine web-app
will automatically produce these optimised requests if the following
configuration parameter is provided:
.cdn.cgi-enabled = true
