Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have installed the following packages OpenEye, ChemAxon calcx, ChemAxon structurecheck, MGLTOOLS, BINANA
• Set up Rosetta to work with vscreenml
  • Request license here https://els.comotion.uw.edu/express_license_technologies/rosetta (academic license is free). Once you obtain the license, you can download Rosetta here https://www.rosettacommons.org/software/license-and-download and do the following
  • In order to use this tool, it's better to build Rosetta from scratch. Once Rosetta repositiory is downloaded, before compiling do the following:
    1. from your terminal change into path/to/Rosetta/main/source/src/apps/pilot/

       cd path/to/Rosetta/main/source/src/apps/pilot/
       

    2. Inside path/to/Rosetta/main/source/src/apps/pilot/ create a new directory "vscreenml_rosetta_extension"

       mkdir vscreenml_rosetta_extension
       

    3. copy vscreenml_rosetta_extension/vscrenml_interface_ddg.cc into path/to/Rosetta/main/source/src/apps/pilot/vscreenml_rosetta_extension

       cp /path/to/vscreenml/vscreenml_rosetta_extension/vscrenml_interface_ddg.cc vscreenml_rosetta_extension
       

    4. add the json formated text below to path/to/Rosetta/main/source/src/pilot_apps.src.settings.all

       "pilot/vscreenml_rosetta_extension" : [
           "vscrenml_interface_ddg",
        ],
       

    ```
    

    5. Compile Rosetta by changing to the source directory and running: python scons bin mode=release
