This functionality never worked as well as hoped. Bigger picture, this represents a move away from pre-provisioned datasets / narratives and towards "bring your own data", which is the main use case after all!
to be compatible in a world without the main 'data/' directory. This made me realise our "smoke-tests" are basically a single test! Nonetheless it's worth keeping around the architecture for future improvements
This is a relic of earlier times where it was kept in-sync with the canonical nextstrain datasets. We maintain similar functionality in the fetch-test-data script but for testing purposes only. This is a key part of the bigger re-design which moves auspice to a visualisation program/library which you point at your own data.
It has previously been useful to run Auspice as a stand-alone Heroku (review-) app, but this has been superseded by standing up a testing nextstrain.org review app as the range of datasets/narratives available is much greater, or a auspice.us app for datasets not available via nextstrain.org. It's simpler (and cheaper!) to drop the Auspice app entirely
Slightly out of date!!!

A set of commits which move away from provisioning data within the auspice repo / install directory.
There's a little polish / thinking to be done around how
npm run view/npm run devshould work...Heroku changes also needed, although not time-critical.
