Installation
------------
Copy the file
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ncbi/vadr/master/vadr-install.sh
to a new empty directory where you want to install VADR.

If you are installing on a Linux system, execute the command:

sh ./vadr-install.sh linux

If you are installing on a Mac/OSX, execute the command:

sh ./vadr-install.sh macosx

Next, set your environment variables as explained at the end of the
output of the above command.

Finally, run tests to verify that your installation was successful by
running the command:

$VADRSCRIPTSDIR/testfiles/do-install-tests-local.sh

---

Alternative two-step installation: 

It may be more convenient for some users to perform two separate steps
to first download the necessary files and then build them. To do that,
replace the single 'sh ./vadr-install.sh' command recommended above
with two commands, as follows:

If you are installing on a Linux system, execute the commands:

sh ./vadr-install.sh linux download
sh ./vadr-install.sh build

If you are installing on a Mac/OSX, execute the commands:

sh ./vadr-install.sh macosx download
sh ./vadr-install.sh build

These two commands must be run from the same directory.

Then proceed with setting the environment variables as explained at
the end of the second vadr-install.sh command above, and with running
tests as explained above.
