Migrating from RAPIDS beta

If you were relying on the old docs and the most recent version of RAPIDS you are working with is from or before Oct 13, 2020 you are using the beta version of RAPIDS.

You can start using the new RAPIDS (we are starting with v0.1.0) right away, just take into account the following:

1. Install a new copy of RAPIDS (the R and Python virtual environments didn't change so the cached versions will be reused)
   1. Make sure you don't skip a new Installation step to give execution permissions to the RAPIDS script: chmod +x rapids
2. Follow the new Configuration guide.
   1. You can copy and paste your old .env file
   2. You can migrate your old participant files:

   python tools/update_format_participant_files.py
   

3. Get familiar with the new way of Executing RAPIDS
4. You can proceed to reconfigure your config.yaml, its structure is more consistent and should be familiar to you.
