* Generating output for EBI

Would it not be great an uploader to PubSeq also can export samples
to, say, EBI? That is what we discuss in this section. The submission
process is somewhat laborious and when you have submitted to PubSeq
why not export the same to EBI too with the least amount of effort?

COVID-19 PubSeq is a data source - both sequence data and metadata -
that can be used to push data to other sources, such as EBI. You can
register [[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/samples/programmatic.html][samples programmatically]] with a specific XML interface.  Note
that (at this point) if you want to submit a sequence (FASTA) it can
only be done through the [[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/general-guide/webin-cli.html][Webin-CLI]]. Raw data (FASTQ) can go through
the XML interface.

EBI sequence resources are presented through ENA. For example
[[https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/view/MT394864][Sequence: MT394864.1]].

EBI has XML Formats for

- SUBMISSION
- STUDY
- SAMPLE
- EXPERIMENT
- RUN
- ANALYSIS
- DAC
- POLICY
- DATASET
- PROJECT

with the schemas listed [[ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/ena/doc/xsd/sra_1_5/][here]].  Since we are submitting sequences we
should follow submitting [[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/assembly.html][full genome assembly guidelines]] and
[[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/general-guide/programmatic.html][ENA guidelines]]. The first step is to define the study, next the sample
and finally the sequence (assembly).

* Defining the EBI study

A study is defined [[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/study/programmatic.html][here]] and looks like

#+BEGIN_SRC xml
<PROJECT_SET>
   <PROJECT alias="COVID-19 Washington DC">
      <TITLE>Sequencing SARS-CoV-2 in the Washington DC area</TITLE>
      <DESCRIPTION>This study collects samples from COVID-19 patients in the Washington DC area</DESCRIPTION>
      <SUBMISSION_PROJECT>
         <SEQUENCING_PROJECT/>
      </SUBMISSION_PROJECT>
   </PROJECT>
</PROJECT_SET>
#+END_SRC

also a submission 'command' is required looking like

#+BEGIN_SRC xml
<SUBMISSION>
   <ACTIONS>
      <ACTION>
         <ADD/>
      </ACTION>
      <ACTION>
         <HOLD HoldUntilDate="TODO: release date"/>
      </ACTION>
   </ACTIONS>
</SUBMISSION>

#+END_SRC

The webin system accepts such sources using a command like

: curl -u username:password -F "SUBMISSION=@submission.xml" -F "PROJECT=@project.xml" "https://wwwdev.ebi.ac.uk/ena/submit/drop-box/submit/"

as described [[https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/study/programmatic.html#submit-the-xmls-using-curl][here]].
