I want to try to build cellxgene-census with my own dataset, follow the README, image but get an error.

my code: 

python -m cellxgene_census_builder ./ build --manifest ./manifest.csv

error:

usage: cellxgene_census_builder [-h] [--test-resume | --no-test-resume] working_dir
cellxgene_census_builder: error: unrecognized arguments: build --manifest ./manifest.csv

@Liripo Currently we don't support this code for external use. But we are interested in learning about why you wish to build a Census of you own as we may be able to point you in the right direction to accomplish your goals.

For now I recommend taking a look at what the Census uses to build its data: TileDB-SOMA

Yes, I've had a rough look at TileDB-SOMA，But it seems to only provide query of a single data set, and for building own database, there should be other operational?

My original purpose was just to learn how to build a database and quickly query the expression of genes in the database. Of course, if I master it, I may apply it to some related projects.
