Specifying install location

[rpadmanabhan]

Hi,
Is there a way to specify a prefix when using pyensembl install to install the ensembl data to a particular directory.

Thank You

It's not currently possible to do that in a sane way but is sort-of possible if you don't mind reaching into the internals of pyensembl: you can pass a cache_directory_path argument when building a Genome. Unfortunately, we never exposed that as an option in EnsemblRelease.

I'll fix this for you in the next few days (at least from the Python interface for EnsemblRelease).
