Standalone RAW Conversion in Linux #26

Closed antortjim closed 6 years ago

antortjim commented 6 years ago

Hi all!

My name is Antonio. I came across this tool forwarded by Marc Vaudel in this google group entry https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/peptide-shaker/Lqe7lYKLcHI (from Peptide Shaker). I think it's great. I am also surprised that you can support the analysis of RAW files as input within a Linux environment, as msconvert from ProteoWizard only supports that in Windows. I can see you make use of an executable called "txic_json.exe", which you call using mono https://github.com/compomics/moFF/blob/master/moff.py. Would it be possible to extract this conversion functionality as a script by itself, so that RAW files can be converted to mzML or mgf in Linux?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Best regards

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

Thanks for using moFF. I hope to release soon a new version with some intersting filtering option for the matched peaks.

Rearding your question, I will directly link you to our Thermo Raw parser a C# program that does the convertion Raw --> mgf. The convertion to mzML it should be available soon. For any question you can contact @nielshulstaert he is the developer of our Thermo Raw parser.

Thanks for your answer! I'm sorry it took me a while to get back to you As you could see, I asked the developer of https://github.com/compomics/ThermoRawFileParser. It seems very promising :) Thanks for your time

Best Antonio
