sudo tracer login
This will open up a browser window to log in to your Tracer account.
To start tracking a pipeline, run the following command: 
sudo tracer init
You will be prompted to configure the pipeline name. Filling this out ensures that each pipeline is uniquely identifiable, customizable, and easy to search later on.
Tracer is now tracking your pipeline.Every run you launch for this pipeline will be automatically monitored.Note: You will only need to run tracer init again for a new pipeline, not per pipeline run.

​
3. Launch pipeline

You can now choose to run any pipeline you want or use tracer demo to launch a prepared pipeline. Run your own pipeline by following your usual workflow or run this line in your terminal: 
sudo tracer demo
tracer demo will run an nf-core fastquorum pipeline. This pipeline requires minimum 2GB RAM, 1 core vCPU, and 30GB storage to run efficiently.
