Racon output missing #124

I'm new to using racon and have managed to get it working to polish a draft assembly with nanopore reads. However I caanot find the output file from racon, nothing is generated in the directory I run racon from.

Does racon output polished contigs in a different directory?

Hi Michael, racon outputs polished sequences to stdout so you have to pipe your command to a file like bellow:

racon -t 12 reads.fasta overlaps.paf assembly.fasta > polished_assembly.fasta

Best regards, Robert
