Get Treerecs

1) Binaries

The simplest way to get Treerecs is to download the precompiled binaries.

  • GNU/Linux & OS X

    • install treerecs with bioconda

  • Windows

    • We advise windows users to run Treerecs via Seaview.
    Install and launch Seaview, then open a gene tree file (for instance one of those provided in the examples) and choose “Reconcile->Reconcile, root and rearrange with Treerecs” in the menu.

    If you want to use Treerecs without Seaview, you can download binaries from the gitlab page or find the latest version (1.2) here: treerecs.exe

2) Build from source

Alternatively, you can download the source code and compile it yourself.
This should be straightforward since the only requirements are CMake and a C++14-capable compiler.

2.1) Get the source code

2.1.1) Download

Latest release (tar gz)

2.1.2) Clone the git repository

If you wish to stay tuned and always have the latest version of Treerecs at hand, you can clone the git repository:

  • using https:
    git clone https://gitlab.inria.fr/Phylophile/Treerecs.git
  • or using ssh (requires a registered ssh key):
    git clone git@gitlab.inria.fr:Phylophile/Treerecs.git

See also the gitlab page.

2.2) Build Treerecs

Open a terminal and cd into the Treerecs directory

From the Treerecs directory run the following commands:
