bl2seq
Would it be within sequenceserver's scope to support "bl2seq" and/or user-provided databases for 1-off searching?
The server would have to take care of building the blast database upon job submission but otherwise it would be pretty simple.
Sure. I would try the -subject
option first instead of creating a blastdb.
For 1-off searching I put the FASTA in a temp directory and run sequenceserver -d ~/tmp/
. This prompts to create blastdb - press enter enter enter - server is ready - blast.
Duplicate #124.

That seems like a better option. Forgot about this flag.

At that point I might as well just use the command line 😀 . The point of adding this to sequence server is being able to do it from the API/web-interface.
Would you accept a PR to add at least an API endpoint for this?
Go for it. I will do the UI part after you.
Btw, the plan is to release master over the summer to align with @aniarya82's GSoC work (extending and improving visualisations in SequenceServer).
Very useful feature, I wonder if there are any progress till now?
