check for existing files

[killerz99]

Hi, my company has blocked access to hugging face, but I have managed to download file dependencies to their expected location based on the config.yaml file. However, when running snakemake it still tries to connect to cdn-lfs.hf.co which dies due to lack of connection. Is there a way to have it skip the download if the already files exist? Thanks.

I think I just comment out the down_load_models rules from the Snakefile
#include: "../shared/rules/download_models.smk"

Hi @killerz99, yes this should do in this case! Let me know if you face any other challenges!
