[!NOTE] If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to this page on how to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to test your setup with
-profile test
before running the workflow on actual data.
Prepare an assemblysheet.csv
file with following columns representing target assemblies and associated meta-data.
tag:
A unique tag which represents the target assembly throughout the pipeline and in the final reportfasta:
FASTA fileNow, you can run the pipeline using:
nextflow run plant-food-research-open/assemblyqc \
-profile <docker/singularity/.../institute> \
--input assemblysheet.csv \
--outdir <OUTDIR>
[!WARNING] Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI or Nextflow
-params-file
option. Custom config files including those provided by the-c
Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration except for parameters; see docs.
Download the pipeline to your /workspace/$USER
folder. Change the parameters defined in the pfr/params.json file. Submit the pipeline to SLURM for execution.
