Setting up amztpp

The latest version of the TPP cloud tool amztpp can be downloaded from the TPP sourceforge site at http://sashimi.svn.sourceforge.net. It is packaged as a gzipped "tar" file and can be unpacked using the standard unix tool tar or on Windows using programs such as 7-zip, WinZip, Stuffit, WinRAR, etc..

Prerequisites

Ironically TPP is not required in order to use the amztpp tool nor do you need to have any of the open source MS/MS identification programs that it uses installed. Though you will find having TPP installed will make it much easier to view and interact with the results produced by amztpp. So its our recommendation that you first install TPP before proceeding following the instructions at Software:TPP.

Since the amztpp tool is written in Perl you therefore need to install Perl on you system before proceeding. If you are on Linux it is very likely that you already have Perl installed on your system. If you are Windows you can download and install the free community edition provided by ActiveState at http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads. (ActivePerl 5.14.2 or greater is required).

Installing amztpp on Linux

First download the latest version from sourceforge if you haven't already and unpack the archive: 

wget http://sashimi.svn.sourceforge.net
tar xvzf amztpp-2.0.tgz
cd amztpp-2.0

There are several ways to proceed from this point. The simplest is to follow the "standard" way of installing perl modules and programs as follows:


The amztpp tool is written in Perl and is installed using the standard Perl way of installing programs and modules. The following commands show the simplest way to get it installed, and you'll need root privileges to install: 


tar xvzf amztpp-2.0.tgz
cd amztpp-2.0
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install


Installing amztpp on Windows

  • Run perl Makefile.pl
    • There are a large number of dependencies that may need to be installed in order to install amztpp.
  • Run make install
