Step 1: Install Tracer - Only One Line of Code

curl -sSL https://install.tracer.cloud | sh -s

Step 2: Authenticate with Tracer

sudo tracer login
This will open up a browser window to log in to your Tracer account.

Step 3: Initialize Pipeline Tracking

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.

Step 4: Launch (y)our pipeline

sudo tracer demo
Alternatively: Run your usual command (Nextflow, Snakemake, WDL, etc.)
Tracer works automatically once the agent is active.Watch your pipeline run in the Tracer dashboard.
