Can a multiple record fasta be used as input? #2

Closed pinkvirus3 closed 7 years ago

pinkvirus3 commented 7 years ago

The blockParse.py script only runs through the first record in the .fasta. Is it possible to give as input a .fasta with multiple records, creating a .fastq file with probes for multiple regions?

Thanks

Hello,

blockParse does not currently support multiple FASTA records in the same input file. To run blockParse on multiple regions at once, we would recommend to either write a simple 'handler' script to coordinate the runs or to take advantage of a utility such as Snakemake.
