See the STAR project page. To use STAR, you’ll use the module
tool.
You can see what versions are available by using:
[me@login01 ~]$ module avail star
------------------------------ /opt/modulefiles -------------------------------
star/2.7.11a
Use "module spider" to find all possible modules and extensions.
Use "module keyword key1 key2 ..." to search for all possible modules matching
any of the "keys".
To load a specific version, you would use:
[me@login01 ~]$ module load star/2.7.11a
while the "star" wildcard will load the default version, star-2.7.11a in this case.
You should now be able to run STAR commands:
[me@login01 ~]$ /export/star/2.7.11a/bin/Linux_x86_64_static/STAR
Usage: STAR [options]... --genomeDir /path/to/genome/index/ --readFilesIn R1.fq R2.fq
